Episode Synopsis

Crypto markets don’t move smoothly — they jump. In this episode, we explore the cutting-edge research modeling these sudden price shifts using jump diffusion frameworks and copula-based tail risk metrics. We break down how jumps are detected, what drives them, and how they spread contagion across assets. Learn why standard models fall short, how co-jumps reveal systemic risk, and how a jump-aware portfolio strategy can improve performance — especially when markets get wild.Whether you're a quant, portfolio manager, or just crypto-curious, this is your guide to the hidden volatility driving digital asset returns.Find the full research paper here: https://community.quantopian.com/c/community-forums/crypto-contagionFor more quant-focused content, join us at ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://community.quantopian.com⁠⁠⁠⁠.
