Bitcoin in a Time of Financial Crisis

Abstract

This is the article we had prepared around 1-2 weeks ago (data sample starts in October 2014 and ends on 4th of March 2020). But then coronavirus hit our country (Slovak Republic), and we were doing a lot of crisis management tasks and therefore were not able to publish it on time. Now, after the Bitcoin’s negative performance between 5th of March and current date, the conclusion of our short article seems logical. But we still feel that it makes sense to publish it in a way it was prepared.
