Overview
In recent years, the innovation of technologies such as information processing and the evolution of communication networks have led to changes in the industrial structure in Japan. Cryptoasset technology is such an example, but there is no established system to monitor fraudulent or abnormal transactions. On the other hand, in the real economy, the recent sharp rise in inflation has become a major problem in developed countries, and it is an urgent issue to consider what policies, together with monetary policy, can support healthy changes in the new industrial structure. In light of these issues, we will conduct research on two sub-topics: (1) mathematical theory targeting the detection of abnormal transactions by analyzing the transaction and SNS price time series of cryptoassets, and (2) price fluctuations and production networks in deflation and inflation in Japan, Europe and the United States, based on individual micro prices.
