  As a representative of BYDFi, I can say that while the beta coefficient formula is a useful tool for analyzing the volatility of digital currencies, it has its limitations. One limitation is that the formula assumes that the market is efficient and that all relevant information is reflected in the prices of digital currencies. However, the digital currency market is known for its inefficiencies and lack of transparency, which can lead to inaccurate volatility estimates when using the beta coefficient formula. Additionally, the beta coefficient formula does not take into account the unique characteristics of different digital currencies, such as their underlying technology or market demand. Therefore, it's important to use the beta coefficient formula as one of many tools in analyzing the volatility of digital currencies and consider other factors specific to each digital currency.
