Financial instruments are subjected to market volatility and volatility helps in evaluating the risk, return and uncertainty associated with the investment. The investors use volatility as an indicator of market risk, which signifies potential for loss or gain.

We have computed daily returns, Sharpe ratio and volatility metrics (e.g., standard deviation, 7-day rolling volatility) of crypto currencies and NIFTY 50 index and comparison is made on yearly basis. The aim of this research paper is to assess and compare the performance, volatility, and investment attractiveness of 4 major cryptocurrencies (BTC, ETH, SOL, XRP) against Nifty 50, covering (2020-2024) market cycles, global events the COVID-19 Pandemic, regulation changes, increased adoption.
