Resumen

El Bitcoin es una moneda virtual que proporciona una alternativa segura completamente descentralizada a las monedas que se utilizan actualmente. Nakamoto, el creador de esta criptomoneda, publicó un artículo sobre una lista de correo de encriptación en 2008 con el título “Bitcoin: A Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System”, dando así la creación de esta moneda virtual. Este estudio tiene como objetivo analizar la Bitcoin y qué factores pueden influir en su precio, en el contexto de una pandemia. Este trabajo se centrará en el precio de bitcoin y en cinco factores diferentes que pueden influir en su precio, tales como: tasa de hash, dificultad de minería, índice de volatilidad, búsqueda de Google y costo de transacción. El periodo para esta investigación va del 15/03/2020 al 14/11/2021, un total de 96 semanas, para integrar el factor covid-19 al estudio. Los resultados muestran que las variables fsCoinCirculation y fsTransationCost son ambas condiciones necesarias para un aumento en el precio de bitcoin, pero para valores bajos de precio de bitcoin no hay condiciones necesarias. Además, los hallazgos sugieren que la tasa de hash influye en el precio de bitcoin. Finalmente, se encontró que la variable fsVix es una variable con una implicación importante en el precio, es decir, en su volatilidad
