Abstract

This research compares the effectiveness of the hybrid Convolutional Neural Network-Long Short-Term Memory (CNN-LSTM) method and the Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) method in predicting the Ethereum (ETH) exchange rate against the United States Dollar (USD). The research uses historical ETH/USD data from Yahoo Finance for the period 2017-2022. Evaluation of the two models was carried out using the performance metrics Root Mean Square Error (RMSE), Mean Absolute Error (MAE), Mean Absolute Percentage Error (MAPE), coefficient of determination (R²), and accuracy rate. The results showed that the CNN-LSTM hybrid model significantly outperformed the CNN model in predicting the ETH/USD exchange rate with a Test RMSE value of 94.67 compared to 129.02 for CNN, as well as an accuracy rate of 96.31% versus 94.89%. These findings contribute to the fintech literature by providing empirical evidence of the superiority of hybrid methods for high volatility cryptocurrency exchange rate prediction.
