Abstract: We investigate the spillover effect from Bitcoin to selected Fiat currencies (Major and Emerging currencies) using the USD index as control. Our dataset comprises daily frequency from 2 composite currency indices, 7 Major currencies and 21 Emerging Market (EM) currencies from 01/01/2014 to 29/10/2021 (2042 observations). Applying the Dynamic Conditional Correlation - Generalized Autoregressive Conditional Heteroscedasticity (DCC-GARCH) method, we find evidence of spillover with changing patterns (from largely no spillover to negative spill over) between pre- Covid versus COVID-19 period. During the COVID period, Bitcoin demonstrates hedging capabilities against USD.
