摘要
While prior research provides evidence of price clustering in bitcoin, this study seeks to explain the unusual level of bitcoin price clustering using various measures of bitcoin-level and market-wide sentiment. Our results suggest that sentiment has a strong positive association with price clustering. In economic terms, a one standard deviation increase in sentiment - measured by Google Trends - explains about 2.5% to 5% of the unusual level of price clustering in Bitcoin. We also find that our results are robust when we use other measures of investor sentiment.
