Kripto para kavramıyla birlikte kullanım alanı bulan, dijital uygulamalarla iki taraflı şifreleme tekniklerini kullanan ve belli bir merkezin otoritesine bağlı olmadan dolanımda olan para Bitcoin olarak adlandırılmaktadır. Bu çalışmada Bitcoin olarak adlandırılan bu yeni şifrelenmiş paranın dolar ve avro ile olan ilişkisi araştırılmıştır. 28 Ağustos 2011 – 15 Mart 2020 tarihleri arasındaki dönemden oluşan haftalık verilerin kullanıldığı çalışmada ilk olarak Carrion‐i‐Silvestre (2009) birim kök testi ve sonra da Maki (2012) eşbütünleşme testi uygulanarak Bitcoin ve döviz kurları ilişkisi analiz edilmiştir. Elde edilen sonuçlara göre Bitcoin ile hem dolar hem de avro arasında uzun dönemli ve pozitif yönlü bir ilişki tespit edilmiştir. Bu doğrultuda elindeki mevduatını avro ya da dolarda tutan bir yatırımcının sanal piyasalarda Bitcoin’e yatırım yapması riskini minimize ederek portföy çeşitlendirmesi yapmak adına yararlı olmayacaktır.
