Abstract

On a univariate setting, this study aims to: (a) model the volatility of Bitcoin, Dash, Monero, and Stellar, (b) check the eventual existence of structural breaks in their volatility, and (c) investigate the interconnection amid the cryptocurrency volatilities, the US equity and bond markets’ volati...
