2. Abstract
• Bitcoin is a cryptocurrency built on blockchain
technology. Predicting its price is challenging
due to volatility. This project uses ARIMA time-
series model with historical data (2014–
Present) to forecast Bitcoin prices.
3. Introduction
• • Bitcoin is a decentralized digital currency.
• • Price influenced by market demand,
regulations, investor sentiment.
• • High volatility makes prediction challenging.
• • Machine learning and time-series analysis
help improve forecasts.
4. Literature Review
• • McNally et al. (2018): LSTM networks for
Bitcoin prediction.
• • Kristjanpoller & Minutolo (2018): GARCH
model for volatility.
• • Mallqui & Fernandes (2019): Random Forest,
Naïve Bayes models.
• • ARIMA remains effective for trend-based
forecasting.
5. Objectives
• • Collect and preprocess Bitcoin price data
(2014–Present).
• • Analyze trends using time-series tools.
• • Develop predictive model with ARIMA.
• • Evaluate model accuracy.
• • Provide insights into cryptocurrency
forecasting.
7. Hypothesis
• • Null Hypothesis (H₀): ARIMA does not
significantly predict future Bitcoin prices
better than random chance.
• • Alternative Hypothesis (H₁): ARIMA
significantly predicts Bitcoin prices better than
random chance.
8. Conclusion
• • Predicting Bitcoin price is complex due to
volatility.
• • ARIMA captures historical trends and
provides reliable forecasts.
• • Model is limited in handling sudden market
shocks.
• • Can be extended with advanced ML models
(LSTM, hybrid models).
9. Future Scope
• • Explore deep learning models (LSTM, GRU).
• • Integrate real-time market sentiment
analysis.
• • Enhance prediction accuracy with hybrid
models.
• • Deploy as a web application using Streamlit
& AWS.
