Cryptocurrencies have recently gained increased attention from investors, yet their price dynamics remain poorly understood. To provide further insights, this research examines dynamic correlations between cryptocurrency values and volatility indices.
We investigate the temporal dynamics of BTC, ETH and LTC cryptocurrency returns over time with respect to three CBOE uncertainty indices, while also looking at their tail dependence and connectedness under various market scenarios.
Bitcoin
Tracking cryptocurrency prices is often difficult. On this page you can stay up-to-date on their movements by checking Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin and Dogecoin prices as well as their latest news stories.
Late last week Ripple Labs made headlines when it announced the acquisition of Fortress Trust, drawing rave reviews given Fortress’s extensive interests in blockchain and Web3 technologies. Unfortunately however, since that announcement XRP has seen declining values leading to speculation that Ripple sold off some tokens to fund this acquisition.
Though not confirmed, Ripple’s price decline indicates market disenchantment with their prospects. Ripple markets itself as a cross-border payments solution for banks that reduces transaction time and costs via faster international transactions.
Ripple

LTC
Cryptocurrencies have emerged as a powerful force in finance, yet their relationship to markets remains unclear. The present study analyzes the direction predictability of returns for four dominant cryptocurrencies and volatility indices.
We find that, with the exception of XRP, BTC, ETH and LTC are each net pairwise transmitters of shocks to volatility indices in all quantiles and that their transmission increases during extreme market conditions.
Digital Coin Price holds an optimistic view for Ripple and expects its price to reach $4 by 2028. Other pundits may predict slower increases over time; none has predicted that it will drop below $1 in 2024.
DSH
Cryptocurrency markets have finally recovered after an otherwise volatile winter, yet regulatory uncertainty still dominates. If this market rebounds successfully, Bitcoin may soon reach new highs.
Ripple provides cross-border transactions at lower costs and faster speeds than traditional banking systems, making it a preferred solution among top financial institutions and corporations worldwide. Ripple has become an alternative to Bitcoin due to its stability factor and independence from third-party service providers.
