Bitcoin Stock Market Prediction using Data Science & Time Series Modeling & Understanding Public Perceptions using Sentiment Analysis
Submitted by : Daniel Alex
Overview
This project used Data Science techniques for BitCoin .
Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies are notorious for volatile market returns. Cryptocurrencies are hard to gain information on and ‘predict’ their future and longevity. A large part of this, is consumer misunderstanding based on the technology itself and the applications involved. Due to the highly ‘technical’ nature of the product and the novel concept, it can be difficult for the general public to have a clear singular view on Bitcoin as a currency and investment.
The objective was to explain the potential reasons for volatility in both the global markets and consumer perception.
Objective
- Provide a broad stock market prediction model using various Time Series models
- Get a better understanding of public perception and industry experts using Sentiment Analysis
- Use word clouds to break apart hidden patterns that reveal new information. i.e, the rise of Bitcoin scams
- Provide explanations for volatility in both markets and consumer recognition
- Provide potential solutions to decrease volatility and cognitive dissonance
- Explore business and industry opportunities to ‘close the information gap’
