【Abstract】In this paper, we aim to uncover the dynamic spillover effects of Bitcoin environmental attention (EBEA) on major asset classes: Carbon emission, crude oil and gold futures, and analyze whether the integration of Bitcoin into portfolio allocation performance. In this study, we document the properties of futures assets and empirically investigate their dynamic correlation between Bitcoin, carbon emission, oil and gold futures. Overall, it is evident that the volatility of Bitcoin, as well as other prominent returns, exhibit an asymmetric response to good and bad news. Additionally, we evaluate the hedge potential benefits of these emerging futures assets for market participants. The evidence supports the idea that the leading cryptocurrency-Bitcoin can be a suitable hedge instrument after the COVID-19 pandemic outbreak. More importantly, our analysis of the portfolio's performance shows that carbon emission futures are diversification benefit products in most of the considered cases. Notably, incorporating carbon futures into portfolios may attract new investors to carbon markets for double goals of risk diversification. These findings also provide insightful evidence to investors, crypto traders, and portfolio managers in terms of hedging strategy, diversification and risk aversion [19-25].
