Master's Thesis from the year 2017 in the subject Economics - Finance, grade: 4.5, Lucerne University of Applied Sciences and Arts (Institute of Finance), course: Banking and Finance, language: English, abstract: Digital currencies are a critical part of the digitization process. Along with gaining momentum with investors, digital currencies are being prominently covered by the media. Bitcoin, in particular, has reached multiple peaks within the previous few years while showing a continuous upward trend in value. The research conducted in this paper aims to uncover the major influencers of the value of bitcoin. An approach using micro economic and macroeconomic models is used to categorize bitcoin as commodity or currency. Furthermore, five major digital currencies are also analyzed for correlation with the value of bitcoin and analysis of volatility in the exchange rates. Based on the evaluation criteria, it is found that bitcoin can be classified as commodity more than currency due to high influence of supply and demand rather than macroeconomic factors. Also, it can be concluded that the price of bitcoin is highly correlated with the digital currency Monero while the other currencies analyzed show a small to medium correlation based on the Pearson correlation coefficient. The paper also analyzes major changes in the historical timeline of bitcoin by the way of qualitative analysis of major events that may have caused volatility. In conclusion, a future outlook is provided which outlines upcoming changes per the author's opinion.

Best Seller Everything for Everyone

Everything for Everyone High quality books Everything for Everyone By:Nathan Schneider Published on 2018-09-11 by Hachette UK The origins of the next radical economy is rooted in a tradition that has empowered people for centuries and is now making a comeback. A new feudalism is on the rise. While monopolistic corporations feed their spoils to the rich, more and more of us are expected to live gig to gig. But, as Nathan Schneider shows, an alternative to the robber-baron economy is hiding in plain sight; we just need to know where to look. Cooperatives are jointly owned, democratically controlled enterprises that advance the economic, social, and cultural interests of their members. They often emerge during moments of crisis not unlike our own, putting people in charge of the workplaces, credit unions, grocery stores, healthcare, and utilities they depend on. Everything for Everyone chronicles this revolution--from taxi cooperatives keeping Uber at bay, to an outspoken mayor transformi...

Best Seller The Gold Standard at the Turn of the Twentieth Century

The Gold Standard at the Turn of the Twentieth Century High quality books The Gold Standard at the Turn of the Twentieth Century By:Steven Bryan Published on 2010-08-31 by Columbia University Press By the end of the nineteenth century, the world was ready to adopt the gold standard out of concerns of national power, prestige, and anti-English competition. Yet although the gold standard allowed countries to enact a virtual single world currency, the years before World War I were not a time of unfettered liberal economics and one-world, one-market harmony. Outside of Europe, the gold standard became a tool for nationalists and protectionists primarily interested in growing domestic industry and imperial expansion. This overlooked trend, provocatively reassessed in Steven Bryan's well-documented history, contradicts our conception of the gold standard as a British-based system infused with English ideas, interests, and institutions. In countries like Japan and Argentina, where nationa...
