Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

ABSTRACT In this study, we explore price discovery across the following three Bitcoin markets: spot, futures, and exchange‐traded funds (ETFs). Employing the fractionally cointegrated vector autoregressive (FCVAR) model, we estimate price discovery in each market using minute‐level price data from October 19, 2021, the launch date of the first US Bitcoin futures‐based Bitcoin ETF, to December 30, 2022. The trivariate FCVAR analysis reveals that the three markets are pairwise cointegrated. In the spot‐futures pair, the spot market emerges as the dominant force in price discovery, while in the spot–ETF pair, the ETF market assumes a leading role. Our paper is the first to show the importance of the newly introduced Bitcoin ETF market in the price discovery process. Extending the analysis to the more recent period, we find that the approval of spot‐based Bitcoin ETFs has weakened the price discovery contribution of the futures‐based ETF and Bitcoin spot market has since become the dominant venue for price discovery.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
