description Este artículo analiza datos de precios históricos de Bitcoin junto con los de una burbuja histórica reconocida y generalmente aceptada (Burbuja de los Mares del Sur de 1720) con el objeto de identificar posibles similitudes. Para encontrar evidencia empírica de tendencias de burbuja especulativa, este artículo analiza los momentos de la distribución y modelos autorregresivos de series de tiempo de ambos activos. Los resultados muestran que los precios diarios históricos de ambos activos, considerando un año antes y después del precio máximo, muestran claramente las fases de expansión de una burbuja y el consecuente colapso. Asimismo, los dos activos muestran varias similitudes en la estadística descriptiva de sus retornos incluyendo la media, desviación estándar y el sesgo. Otras pruebas estadísticas muestran varios momentos de explosión en las series de tiempo de los retornos de ambos activos, lo que implica que estos exhibieron más de una burbuja financiera.

In order to find empirical evidence of speculative bubble tendencies, the article analyses distribution moments and autoregressive models of time series of both assets. Results show that historical daily prices of both assets—taking into account one year before and one year after the maximum price level—clearly show the two phases of bubble expansion and subsequent crash. Furthermore, various similarities between the South Sea Bubble and Bitcoin can be found in descriptive statistics, such as mean of return, standard deviation, and skewness. Statistical tests also show several explosive moments in the time series of the South Sea Company and Bitcoin returns, which implies that both assets exhibit more than one financial bubble.text/htmlapplication/pdftext/xml10.14718/revfinanzpolitecon.v13.n1.2021.92011-76632248-6046https://hdl.handle.net/10983/29442https://doi.org/10.14718/revfinanzpolitecon.v13.n1.2021.9engUniversidad Católica de Colombiahttps://revfinypolecon.ucatolica.edu.co/article/download/3435/3878https://revfinypolecon.ucatolica.edu.co/article/download/3435/3673https://revfinypolecon.ucatolica.edu.co/article/download/3435/3809Núm. 1 , Año 2021224119713Revista Finanzas y Política EconómicaAbramova, S., & Böhme, R.
