“…Some studies have supported the hedging ability of Bitcoin (Aggarwal, Santosh, & Bedi, 2018;Gkillas & Longin, 2019;Shahzad, Elie, David, Ladislav, & Brian, 2019), while others have reported that gold can perform better than Bitcoin to hedge risks (Al-Yahyaee, Mensi, & Yoon, 2018;Klein, Hien, & Walther, 2018;Kub at, 2015). Additionally, they have underscored that there is an influence from GP to BCP or vice versa (Bouri, Gupta, Lahiani, & Shahbaz, 2018;Obryan, 2019;Zhu, Dickinson, & Li, 2017). However, it can be obviously observed that mutual influences exist in these two variables; thus, one-way influence cannot reflect the relationship between Bitcoin and gold markets.…”
