One recent and notable example is the emergence of virtual currencies (such as Bitcoin) also known as cryptocurrencies. Virtual currencies introduced a fundamental transformation that affected the way goods, services and assets are exchanged. As a result of its distributed ledgers based on blockchain, cryptocurrencies not only offer some unique advantages to the economy, investors, and consumers, but also pose considerable risks to users and challenges for regulators when fitting the new technology into the old legal framework. The core of this proposed book is to present and discuss the evidence on financial asset capabilities of virtual currencies. The contributors of this volume analyze several interesting and timely issues such as the particularities of virtual currencies and their statistical characteristics; the diversification benefits of virtual currencies; the behavior and dependence structure between virtual currencies and the financial markets; the economic implications of virtual currencies, their effects, their price risk, and contagion spillovers in a unified and comprehensive framework; the future of virtual currencies and their distributed ledgers technology. 410 0$aContributions to Management Science,$x1431-1941 606 $aRisk management 606 $aBusiness enterprises?Finance 606 $aMacroeconomics 606 $aBanks and banking 606 $aEconomics, Mathematical  606 $aComputers 606 $aRisk Management$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/612040 606 $aBusiness Finance$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/512000 606 $aMacroeconomics/Monetary Economics//Financial Economics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W32000 606 $aBanking$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/626010 606 $aQuantitative Finance$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/M13062 606 $aInformation Systems and Communication Service$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/I18008 615 0$aRisk management. 615 0$aBusiness enterprises?Finance. 615 0$aMacroeconomics. 615 0$aBanks and banking. 615 0$aEconomics, Mathematical . 615 0$aComputers. 615 14$aRisk Management. 615 24$aBusiness Finance. 615 24$aMacroeconomics/Monetary Economics//Financial Economics. 615 24$aBanking. 615 24$aQuantitative Finance. 615 24$aInformation Systems and Communication Service. 676 $a343.032 676 $a332.4 702 $aGoutte$b Stéphane$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aGuesmi$b Khaled$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aSaadi$b Samir$c(Associate professor and fellow in behavioral finance)$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910370254803321 996 $aCryptofinance and Mechanisms of Exchange$92228273 997 $aUNINA
