| Abstract | Purpose: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of ARIMA and LSTM models in forecasting Bitcoin prices. This research aims to identify which model provides the highest accuracy and is best suited for application under varying market conditions. Additionally, it seeks to determine the model’s ability to adapt to and respond to market dynamics and the volatile nature of cryptocurrency prices.Methodology: The researchers conducted a comparative analysis of the performance of two models for predicting Bitcoin prices: the ARIMA and LSTM models. The study utilized a dataset of Bitcoin prices from 2020 to 2024, sourced from Yahoo Finance. The data was divided into two sets: a training set and a testing set, with an 80:20 split (80% for training and 20% for testing). The prediction outcomes were evaluated using key metrics, including RMSE and MAE, to measure the accuracy and efficiency of each model. This analysis provided insights into the strengths and weaknesses of each model in handling the volatility and uncertainty of the cryptocurrency market.Findings: The LSTM model outperforms the ARIMA model in terms of accuracy. It is better equipped to capture the price volatility and adapt to market changes, as reflected by lower RMSE and MAE, compared to the ARIMA model. Furthermore, the study indicates that the LSTM model is more suitable for handling complex and volatile datasets, such as cryptocurrency price data, demonstrating superior predictive reliability and performance.Applications of this study: This comparative study of ARIMA and LSTM models has significant practical applications in the finance and technology sectors. The findings that the LSTM model is superior in capturing market volatility can be leveraged to develop tools that aid investment decisions in the cryptocurrency market. Additionally, this research is beneficial for developers working on automated trading platforms, as improved predictions can lead to better risk management and increased profit opportunities for investors in the cryptocurrency market. |
