Cryptocurrencies as an Asset Class Presentation Transcript

Slide 1 - Cryptocurrencies as an asset class Gaetan Lion, April 14, 2022 1
Slide 2 - 2 Introduction We are going to analyze several of the major cryptocurrencies as an asset class. And, we are going to address several related questions: Do they provide diversification benefits relative to the stock market (S&P 500)? How do their diversification benefits compare with Gold’s diversification benefit vs. the stock market? Do cryptocurrencies provide diversification benefits when you really need it… during market downturns? Are cryptocurrencies truly “digital Gold”? Do they behave in a similar way given that their supply is constrained (supposedly in a similar way as Gold is)?
Slide 3 - 3 The Data The data is very limited. Even though Bitcoin was innovated back in 2009, I could not find publicly available data before 2014. And, many other cryptocurrencies have been innovated in just the past few years. Nevertheless, considering the above data limitations, I could find much data at Yahoo Finance that sources the data from CoinMarketCap. Additionally, Yahoo Finance facilitates historical data download. Meanwhile, CoinMarketCap does not. I conducted my analysis on two data sets: Monthly data from September 2015 to March 2022; Daily data from January 3d 2019 to April 8, 2022. When analyzing diversification benefits, correlations, scaled growth, etc. we focus on periodic % change (either monthly or daily % change). When looking at growth patterns, we often look at nominal level variables.
Slide 4 - 4 Looking at monthly data from September 2015 to March 2022 Cryptocurrencies time series data is limited. I did not find any data earlier than 2014. And, by starting the time series in September 2015, I was able to add additional cryptocurrencies to an otherwise limited data set.
Slide 5 - 5 Gold has a near zero correlation with the S&P 500 (diversification benefit). The cryptocurrencies have low correlations with the S&P 500 (diversification benefit). The correlations between cryptocurrencies range from 0.25 to 0.70. The correlations between cryptocurrencies and Gold are very low. Cryptocurrencies behave completely differently than Gold. They can’t be considered the equivalent of digital Gold. Cryptocurrencies do not correlate with anything. The latter can be interpreted as a diversification benefit. However, this benefit should be tempered by the cryptocurrencies huge volatility. Cryptocurrencies have very low correlations with the S&P 500
Slide 6 - 6 Three different growth patterns among the reviewed asset classes Incremental Explosive till hit-the-wall Peaks and Valleys Growth is paced over time. The investment remains within the same numeric scale for a long time (in the 1,000s for the S&P 500 and also for Gold). Growth is explosive at some point. Over time, the investment value crosses through numerous numeric scales (0 – 10, 10 – 100, 100 – 1000, etc.). But, at some point the investment appears to hit a wall and just goes up and down within the same numeric scale. Growth and contractions are both explosive. The investment does cross numerous numeric scales on both the way up and down. History generates a very volatile peak and valley pattern.
Slide 7 - 7 Incremental growth: S&P 500 and Gold Both the S&P 500 and Gold show a paced incremental growth over time. As reviewed earlier, when detrended these time series are not correlated. However, they may be somewhat cointegrated (over time their respective trends have a mean-reverting component that aligns them with each other).
Slide 8 - 8 Explosive till hit-the-wall: the majority of cryptocurrencies
Slide 9 - 9 Peaks and Valleys: Litecoin and XRP Contrary to the majority of cryptocurrencies, these two have several sets of peaks and valleys. Thus, they do not appear to have explicitly hit a wall. Their respective patterns suggest they may be more likely to rebound than other cryptocurrencies. Remember that these two cryptocurrencies had the highest correlation at 0.70 (within the correlation matrix shown earlier). And, visually the time series graphs do show a tight visual similarity between these two time series.
Slide 10 - 10 From the beginning to the end of the reviewed period (close to 7 years), the majority of the cryptocurrencies have more than doubled in value every year. That pace is unsustainable. For these investments to keep on doubling in value every year over the next 7 years, their value would have to increase by 128 times. The above statistics reflect the cryptocurrencies incredibly fast historical growth and volatility. Cryptocurrencies are at times referred to as the digital Gold because of their limited supply associated with supposed inflation-protection quality. However, as reviewed the cryptocurrencies behave completely differently than Gold.
Slide 11 - 11 A complete distribution of monthly % change showing again the volatile and explosive monthly % change in cryptocurrencies The cryptocurrencies’ explosive behavior relative to the S&P 500 and Gold is apparent when looking at the Max, Min, and Range. Also, the cryptocurrencies 75th percentile monthly % changes are a lot higher than the 95th percentiles for the S&P 500 and Gold. Similarly, the cryptocurrencies 25th percentiles reflect deeper downturns than the S&P 500 and Gold 5th percentiles.
Slide 12 - 12 Looking at daily data from January 3d, 2019 to April 8, 2022 Because of the shorter time series, we were able to add Binance among the cryptocurrencies.
Slide 13 - 13 Overall this correlation matrix is consistent with the one based on monthly data over a longer time series. Both Gold and cryptocurrencies have again low correlations with the S&P 500. Cryptocurrencies have low correlations with Gold. We note that the correlations between cryptocurrencies are now quite a bit higher than when looking at the monthly data over a longer time period.
Slide 14 - 14 The “explosive” growth-behavior of cryptocurrencies relative to the S&P 500 and Gold
Slide 15 - 15 The “explosive” behavior of cryptocurrencies relative to the S&P 500 and Gold As reviewed within this daily time series, it is not uncommon for cryptocurrencies to increase or decrease by + or – 25% in a single day. The cryptocurrencies’ volatility is far greater than the one for Gold or the S&P 500.
Slide 16 - 16 A complete distribution of daily % change showing again the volatile and explosive daily % change in cryptocurrencies The explosive behavior of the cryptocurrencies relative to the S&P 500 and Gold can be readily characterized by looking at the Max, Min, and Range. Also, the cryptocurrencies 75th percentile daily % changes are all a lot higher than the 95th percentiles for the S&P 500 and Gold. Similarly, the cryptocurrencies 25th percentiles reflect deeper downturns than the S&P 500 and Gold 5th percentiles.
Slide 17 - 17 Do cryptocurrencies provide you diversification protection when you need it? Wow, as shown the cryptocurrencies’ losses were far greater than the stock market’s. In this one instance (the only one available within the data), the cryptocurrencies provided no diversification benefit whatsoever… to the contrary, they actually exacerbated the stock market losses. Granted this is a “sample of one” study associated with an uncertain large sample error. However, this single data point has to give you pause. Does it make sense to attempt to diversify your equities risk with an asset class that is 5 to 10 x riskier (as measured by standard deviation), and appears to actually correlate with stock market downturns (even though in general it is rather uncorrelated with the market)?
Slide 18 - 18 Considerations: are Cryptocurrencies just a Zero-sum game over time? The stock market generates cumulative gains over time. As the economy and related corporate profits keep on growing, the overall stock market pie keeps on growing. Just investing in a stock index creates value over time. Cryptocurrencies do not appear to generate reliable cumulative gains. They have generated explosive gains for early investors. Meanwhile, for the past couple of years, unlike the stock market, cryptocurrencies have stopped generating cumulative gains. Investing in a diversified portfolio of cryptocurrencies, unlike a diversified portfolio of stocks, may not create value over time.
Slide 19 - 19 The current cryptocurrency bubble burst The maximum value for cryptocurrencies have occurred 2 to 9 months earlier than for the S&P 500. And, the resulting contraction have been far more pronounced. The cryptocurrencies have lost between – 33% to – 79% of their respective values vs. only – 6% for the S&P 500. Going forward you may have serial periods of crashes of – 70% or worse, and booms of + 233% that bring back an investment to break even (see calculations below) without creating incremental sustainable value over time. 1 x (1 – 70%) = 0.3 0.3 x (1 + 233%) = 1 At such a stage, the cryptocurrencies would be a zero-sum game where the early speculators buying during one of the serial bottoms would extract gains from the latecomers buying near the top of the bubble. And, this cycle is likely to repeat for quite a while. Timing this bubble cycle may be challenging.
Slide 20 - 20 Appendix Section: Data Visualization of Volatility
Slide 21 - 21 The Y-axis indicates that the cryptocurrencies volatility, as measured, is truly amazing. 7.5 means that the annualized standard deviation of % change is 750%! The main point is how much higher is the volatility of cryptocurrencies relative to the S&P 500. Over the reviewed period, the S&P 500 has an average annual standard deviation of 14% vs. 80% for Bitcoin, 149% for Ethereum, 307% for Ethereum and Dodge, and 116% for Litecoin.
Slide 22 - 22 How can annualized standard deviations get > 700%?! Here is one example among many, starting with the monthly values of the XRP coin from December 2016 to December 2017. We derive the monthly % change in the right hand column. Next, we calculate the standard deviation of these monthly % change. And, it is 251%. Next, to convert this monthly standard deviation into an annualized standard deviation, we multiply the 251% by the SQRT(12) and we get 869%. One may argue this extremely high annualized standard deviation is in good part caused by the last observation in December 2017 associated with a monthly % change of 817%. Well, let’s redo this exercise on the next slide by eliminating this one data point by moving the data series from November 2016 to November 2017.
Slide 23 - 23 Redoing this calculation by eliminating the extremely high monthly % change in December 2017 still result in an extremely high annualized standard deviation of 458%. As shown on the earlier graph, both XRP and Dodge experienced annualized standard deviations of > 458% for several months or close to a year (XRP in 2018, and Dodge in 2021).
Slide 24 - 24 When focusing on the Y-axis (the level dimension), we see how much more volatile are the XRP and Dodge coins. But, even Bitcoin, that appears tame by comparison, is a lot more volatile than the S&P 500.
Slide 25 - 25 When focusing on the time dimension, the graph shows that XRP had a huge spike in volatility in 2018. Meanwhile, Dodge experienced a similar huge spike in volatility, 3 years later, in 2021.
Slide 26 - 26 This graph simply shows how much more volatile the cryptocurrencies are relative to the S&P 500. As shown, XRP is at times 200 times more volatile than the S&P 500.
Slide 27 - 27 Again, XRP stands out. But, even the “relatively” tame Bitcoin is at times 25 times more volatile than the S&P 500.
Slide 28 - 28 When focusing on the time dimension, we see a huge spike in volatility relative to the S&P 500 for all cryptocurrencies near the end of 2017. And, Dodge had a pretty good spike in such volatility in 2021.
Slide 29 - 29 The table above summarizes how much more volatile are the cryptocurrencies compared to the S&P 500.
