英文摘要：
  We show that the behaviour of Bitcoin has interesting similarities to stock and precious metal markets, such as gold and silver. We report that whilst Litecoin, the second largest cryptocurrency, closely follows Bitcoin\'s behaviour, it does not show all the reported properties of Bitcoin. Agreements between apparently disparate complexity measures have been found, and it is shown that statistical, information-theoretic, algorithmic and fractal measures have different but interesting capabilities of clustering families of markets by type. The report is particularly interesting because of the range and novel use of some measures of complexity to characterize price behaviour, because of the IRS designation of Bitcoin as an investment property and not a currency, and the announcement of the Canadian government\'s own electronic currency MintChip.

中文摘要：
我们发现比特币的行为与黄金和白银等股票和贵金属市场有着有趣的相似性。我们报告称，虽然第二大加密货币Litecoin密切关注比特币的行为，但它并未显示比特币的所有报告属性。在明显不同的复杂性度量之间已经找到了一致性，并且表明统计、信息论、算法和分形度量在按类型聚类市场族方面具有不同但有趣的能力。该报告特别有趣，因为它广泛且新颖地使用了一些复杂指标来描述价格行为，因为美国国税局将比特币指定为投资财产而非货币，以及加拿大ZF宣布自己的电子货币芯片。
