Влияние халвинга на торговые показатели криптовалют
Does halving matter for cryptocurrency trade dynamics? This question is in focus of current paper, providing the first comprehensive research on the issue. Results of event study indicate clearly that both cryptocurrency trading volumes and returns are highly affected by halving events, and effects for returns are less notable than for volumes. Prevailing pattern is the growth of cryptocurrency trading volumes with decrease of returns for at least several weeks around the halving event. In addition, it was found that the most significant effects on trade dynamics are associated with the earliest halving events, with dilution for further events. The results may be used in future research papers on cryptocurrencies as well as in cryptocurrency portfolio management.
