This paper investigates the return-volatility asymmetry of Bitcoin. We find that the cross correlations between return and volatility (squared return) are mostly insignificant on a daily level. In the high-frequency region, we find thata power-law appears in negative cross correlation between returns and future volatilities, which suggests that the cross correlation is revision{long ranged}. We also calculate a cross correlation between returns and the power of absolute returns, and we find that the strength of revision{the cross correlations} depends on the value of the power.
