Study of time series characteristics by statistical properties of cryptocurrency prices and multifractal analysis

Physicist Professor Tetsuya Takaishi is based at the liberal arts education center, Hiroshima University of Economics in Japan, and is conducting research on a variety of cryptocurrencies. His research is focused on clarifying the mechanism of price fluctuations, in particular answering questions about the volatility inherent in cryptocurrencies, including understanding what affects the price of cryptocurrencies and why the price fluctuates in the way that it does. His chief focus is on cryptocurrencies, specifically Bitcoin, which is the most well-known of the cryptocurrencies. Takaishi's latest project is investigating the statistical nature of Bitcoin price fluctuations.
