Abstract

Bitcoin has attracted incessant attentions in recent times. Studies have completed models to examine the relationship between Bitcoin and other multiple attendant variables. This paper considers a simple and direct price-volume relation. The paper offers causality evidence according to the dynamic asymmetric causality test. Based on available monthly data spanning 2010:M7-2022:M10, the paper shows that Bitcoin price and volume are integrated, both been I(0)’s. Moreover, the paper discloses the short- and long-term price-volume behaviors of Bitcoin using the cointegration test and vector error correction model (VECM). Taken together, the study first confirms long run relations and presents the estimates of the parsimonious VECM. The results show short run evidence of positive price-volume relations, and in the long run, the disequilibria are as well corrective and mean reversing. The outcomes of the Hatemi-J’s causality testing suggest likely evidence of bidirectional causality between the positive and negative fragments of the shocks of Bitcoin price and volume during the periods.
