Abstract

The behavior of the Bitcoin market is dynamic and erratic, impacted by a range of elements including news developments and investor mood. One well-known aspect of bitcoin is its extreme volatility. This study uses both conventional econometric techniques and deep learning algorithms to anticipate the volatility of Bitcoin returns. The research is based on historical Bitcoin price data spanning October 2014 to February 2022, which was obtained using the Yahoo Finance API. In this work, we contrast the efficacy of generalized autoregressive conditional heteroskedasticity (GARCH) and threshold ARCH (TARCH) models with long short-term memory (LSTM), bidirectional LSTM (Bi-LSTM), and multivariate Bi-LSTM models. Model effectiveness is evaluated by means of root mean squared error (RMSE) and root mean squared percentage error (RMSPE) scores. The multivariate Bi-LSTM model emerges as mostly effective, achieving an RMSE score of 0.0425 and an RMSPE score of 0.1106. This comparative scrutiny contributes to understanding the dynamics of Bitcoin volatility prediction, offering insights that can inform investment strategies and risk management practices in this quickly changing environment of finance.

Abstract

Blockchain technology is the foundation of cryptocurrencies, which are virtual currencies. The decentralized nature of cryptocurrencies has resulted in a significant reduction of central authority over them, which has implications for global trade and relations. The need for an effective model to anticipate the price of cryptocurrencies is essential due to their wide variations in value. Due to the shortcomings of conventional production forecasting, in this work, four distinct models were used. The deep learning models are the long short-term memory (LSTM) and bidirectional long short-term memory (Bi-LSTM), and both the Facebook-Prophet and Silverkite support the exponential smoothing technique. Silverkite is designed to handle a wide range of time series forecasting tasks. Considering past bitcoin information from January 2012 to March 2021, a period of nine years, we looked at the models. The Bi-LSTM model yields a 7.073 mean absolute error (MAE) and a 3.639 root mean squared error (RMSE). The Bi-LSTM model identifies the deviations that might draw attention and avert any problems.
