Abstract

In this study, we perform a comparative analysis of portfolio insurance strategies for the cryptocurrency market. We examine performance evaluation regarding the various downside risks under different economic conditions and explore the impact of investors’ utility based on Expected Utility and Prospect Theory. We confirm evident economic gains using portfolio insurance in the cryptocurrency market and demonstrate reduced downside risks with a higher Omega ratio, implying reasonable risk-managed profit compared to buy-and-hold. Most importantly, portfolio insurance provides opportunities for a higher utility in cryptocurrency than in the traditional stock market, indicating a greater economic value of portfolio insurance.
