【Abstract】We examine how investors arbitrage the Bitcoin spot and futures markets. Using intraday data of the Chicago Board Options Exchange, we reconstruct the actual arbitrage condition that investors confront. We find that there are few arbitrage profit opportunities in "normal" markets, but large arbitrage profit opportunities arise during Bitcoin market "crashes."
