ABSTRACT
Project based learning is the methodology in which projects drive knowledge. This
project delivers project based learning in computer science engineering and foster a wide
range of abilities, not only those related to content knowledge or technical skills, but also
practical skills. The goal for this project is to show how a trained machine model can predict
the price of a cryptocurrency if we give the right amount of data and computational power. It
displays a graph with the predicted values. The most popular technology is the kind of
technological solution that could help mankind predict future events. With vast amount of
data being generated and recorded on a daily basis, we have finally come close to an era
where predictions can be accurate and be generated based on concrete factual data.
Furthermore, with the rise of the crypto digital era more heads have turned towards the digital
market for investments. This gives us the opportunity to create a model capable of predicting
crypto currencies primarily Bitcoin. This can be accomplished by using a series of machine
learning techniques and methodologies.
