In March 2024 Bitcoin BTC reached a new all-time high with prices exceeding 73000 USD marking a milestone for the cryptocurrency market This surge was due to the approval of Bitcoin exchange-traded funds ETFs in the United States allowing investors to access Bitcoin without directly holding it This development increased Bitcoin’s credibility and brought fresh demand from institutional investors echoing previous price surges in 2021 when Tesla announced its 15 billion investment in Bitcoin and Coinbase was listed on the Nasdaq By the end of 2022 Bitcoin prices dropped sharply to 15000 USD following the collapse of cryptocurrency exchange FTX and its bankruptcy which caused a loss of confidence in the market By August 2024 Bitcoin rebounded to approximately 64178 USD but remained volatile due to inflation and interest rate hikes Unlike fiat currency like the US dollar Bitcoin’s supply is finite with 21 million coins as its maximum supply By September 2024 over 92 percent of Bitcoin had been mined Bitcoin’s value is tied to its scarcity and its mining process is regulated through halving events which cut the reward for mining every four years making it harder and more energy-intensive to mine The next halving event in 2024 will reduce the reward to 3125 BTC from its current 625 BTC The final Bitcoin is expected to be mined around 2140 The energy required to mine Bitcoin has led to criticisms about its environmental impact with estimates in 2021 suggesting that one Bitcoin transaction used as much energy as Argentina Bitcoin’s future price is difficult to predict due to the influence of large holders known as whales who own about 92 percent of all Bitcoin These whales can cause dramatic market swings by making large trades and many retail investors still dominate the market While institutional interest has grown it remains a small fraction compared to retail Bitcoin is vulnerable to external factors like regulatory changes and economic crises leading some to believe it is in a speculative bubble However others argue that Bitcoin is still in its early stages of adoption and will grow further as more institutions and governments recognize its potential as a hedge against inflation and a store of value 2024 has also seen the rise of Bitcoin Layer 2 technologies like the Lightning Network which improve scalability by enabling faster and cheaper transactions These innovations are crucial for Bitcoin’s wider adoption especially for day-to-day use and cross-border remittances At the same time central bank digital currencies CBDCs are gaining traction as several governments including China and the European Union have accelerated the development of their own state-controlled digital currencies while Bitcoin remains decentralized offering financial sovereignty for those who prefer independence from government control The rise of CBDCs is expected to increase interest in Bitcoin as a hedge against these centralized currencies Bitcoin’s journey in 2024 highlights its growing institutional acceptance alongside its inherent market volatility While the approval of Bitcoin ETFs has significantly boosted interest the market remains sensitive to events like exchange collapses and regulatory decisions With the limited supply of Bitcoin and improvements in its transaction efficiency it is expected to remain a key player in the financial world for years to come Whether Bitcoin is currently in a speculative bubble or on a sustainable path to greater adoption will ultimately be revealed over time.

Bitcoin (BTC) price again reached an all-time high in 2024, as values exceeded over 73,000 USD in March 2024. That particular price hike was connected to the approval of Bitcoin ETFs in the United States, whilst previous hikes in 2021 were due to events involving Tesla and Coinbase, respectively. Tesla's announcement in March 2021 that it had acquired 1.5 billion U.S. dollars' worth of the digital coin, for example, as well as the IPO of the U.S.' biggest crypto exchange fueled mass interest. The market was noticably different by the end of 2022, however, with Bitcoin prices reaching roughly 87,471.70 as of March 25, 2025 after another crypto exchange, FTX, filed for bankruptcy.Is the world running out of Bitcoin?Unlike fiat currency like the U.S. dollar - as the Federal Reserve can simply decide to print more banknotes - Bitcoin's supply is finite: BTC has a maximum supply embedded in its design, of which roughly 89 percent had been reached in April 2021. It is believed that Bitcoin will run out by 2040, despite more powerful mining equipment. This is because mining becomes exponentially more difficult and power-hungry every four years, a part of Bitcoin's original design. Because of this, a Bitcoin mining transaction could equal the energy consumption of a small country in 2021.Bitcoin's price outlook: a potential bubble?Cryptocurrencies have few metrices available that allow for forecasting, if only because it is rumored that only few cryptocurrency holders own a large portion of available supply. These large holders - referred to as 'whales' - are said to make up of two percent of anonymous ownership accounts, whilst owning roughly 92 percent of BTC. On top of this, most people who use cryptocurrency-related services worldwide are retail clients rather than institutional investors. This means outlooks on whether Bitcoin prices will fall or grow are difficult to measure, as movements from one large whale already having a significant impact on this market.

Ethereum's price history suggests that that crypto was worth significantly less in 2022 than during late 2021, although nowhere near the lowest price recorded. Much like Bitcoin (BTC), the price of ETH went up in 2021 but for different reasons altogether: Ethereum, for instance, hit the news when a digital art piece was sold as the world's most expensive NFT for over 38,000 ETH - or 69.3 million U.S. dollars. Unlike Bitcoin - of which the price growth was fueled by the IPO of the U.S.' biggest crypto trader Coinbase - the rally on Ethereum came from technological developments that caused much excitement among traders. First, the so-called 'Berlin update' rolled out on the Ethereum network in April 2021, an update which would eventually lead to the Ethereum Merge in 2022 and reduced ETH gas prices - or reduced transaction fees. The collapse of FTX in late 2022, however, changed much for the cryptocurrency. As of March 12, 2025, Ethereum was worth 1,908.98 U.S. dollars - significantly less than the 4,400 U.S. dollars by the end of 2021.Ethereum's future and the DeFi industry Price developments on Ethereum are difficult to predict, but cannot be seen without the world of DeFi - or Decentralized Finance. This industry used technology to remove intermediaries between parties in a financial transaction. One example includes crypto wallets such as Coinbase Wallet that grew in popularity in recent years, with other examples including smart contractor Uniswap, Maker (responsible for stablecoin DAI), money lender Dharma and market protocol Compound. Ethereum's future developments are tied with this industry: Unlike Bitcoin and Ripple, Ethereum is technically not a currency but an open-source software platform for blockchain applications - with Ether being the cryptocurrency that is used inside the Ethereum network. Essentially, Ethereum facilitates DeFi - meaning that if DeFi does well, so does Ethereum.NFTs: the most well-known application of EthereumNFTs or non-fungible tokens grew nearly ten-fold between 2018 and 2020, as can be seen in the market cap of NFTs worldwide. These digital blockchain assets can essentially function as a unique code connected to a digital file, allowing to distinguish the original file from any potential copies. This application is especially prominent in crypto art, although there are other applications: gaming, sports and collectibles are other segments where NFT sales occur.

It is estimated that the cumulative market cap of cryptocurrencies increased in early 2023 after the downfall in November 2022 due to FTX. That value declined in the summer of 2023, however, as international uncertainty grew over a potential recession. Bitcoin's market cap made up the majority of the overall market capitalization.

What is market cap?

Market capitalization is a financial measure typically used for publicly traded firms, computed by multiplying the share price by the number of outstanding shares. However, cryptocurrency analysts calculate it as the price of the virtual currencies times the number of coins in the market. This gives cryptocurrency investors an idea of the overall market size, and watching the evolution of the measure tells how much money is flowing in or out of each cryptocurrency.

Cryptocurrency as an investment

The price of Bitcoin has been erratic, and most other cryptocurrencies follow its larger price swings. This volatility attracts investors who hope to buy when the price is low and sell at its peak, turning a profit. However, this does little for price stability. As such, few firms accept payment in cryptocurrencies.

Ripple - or XRP - prices surged in 2021, but went down significantly as 2022 progressed. As of March 26, 2025, one XRP token was worth 2.35 U.S. dollars. Ethereum's price, for example, kept on reaching new all-time highs, a feat not performed by XRP. Indeed, XRP's more price spikes followed relatively late - only occurring in early 2021, against late 2020 for most other cryptos - after the US SEC filed a legal complaint against Ripple in November 2020. This legal action caused the XRP price to plummet from around 0.70 U.S. dollars to 0.20 U.S. dollars.Ripple versus XRP: two become oneTechnically speaking, Ripple is not a cryptocurrency. Renamed from a protocol called OpenCoin in 2013, Ripple facilitates open-source payments. XRP, on the other hand, is the cryptocurrency that runs on this network. In that sense, Ripple and XRP have a similar symbiosis to each other like the Ethereum network and its cryptocurrency Ether. Unlike Ethereum - whose price changes are connected to the world of Decentralized Finance or DeFI - Ripple/XRP mostly looks at developments on cross-border payments for companies. In 2020, companies worldwide began to favor fintech solutions for future B2B solutions and, in a way, Ripple is an extension of that.What affects the price of Ripple?Ripple is mostly active in Southeast Asia - a region with a splintered payment landscape and that heavily investigates its own types of state-issued cryptocurrency to make cross-border payments a lot easier. Price spikes tend to follow after news on this topic in this specific region. In 2019, for example, the XRP price grew after Japan and South Korea began testing to reduce time and costs for transferring international funds between the two countries. In March 2021, Ripple announced that it had agreed to acquire 40 percent of Malaysian cross-border payments firm Tranglo to meet growing demand in Southeast Asia.

Market Cap: Market Value of traded Bitcoin

Bitcoin dominance steadily declined in April 2024 to below 50 percent, amid rumors of central banks halting or potentially lowering interest rates in the future. Within the crypto world, this so-called "dominance" ratio is one of the oldest and most investigated metrics available. It measures the coin's market cap relative to the overall crypto market — effectively showing how strong Bitcoin compared to all the other cryptocurrencies that are not BTC, called "altcoins". Why dominance matters is because market caps of any crypto can change relatively quickly, either due to sudden price changes or a change of recorded trading volume. Essentially, the figure somewhat resembles a trading sentiment, revealing whether Bitcoin investors are responding to certain events or whether Bitcoin is losing out on functions offered by, for example, stablecoins or NFT tokens. "Dominance" criticism: Ethereum and stablecoin The interpretation of the Bitcoin metric is not without its criticism. When first conceived, Bitcoin was the first cryptocurrency to be created and had a substantial market share within all cryptocurrencies? The overall share of stablecoins, such as Tether, as well as Ethereum increasingly start to resemble that of Bitcoin, however. Some analysts argue against this comparison. For one, they point towards the large influence of trading activity between Bitcoin and Ethereum in the dominance metric. Second, they argue that stablecoins can be traded in for Bitcoin and Ethereum, essentially showing how much investors are willing to engage with "regular" cryptocurrency. A rally around Bitcoin in late 2023? By December 2023, the Bitcoin price reached roughly 41,000 U.S. dollars — the first time in 20 months such a value was reached. A weaker U.S. dollar, speculation on decreasing interest rates, and a potential Bitcoin ETF approval are believed to be at the heart of this price increase. Whether this will hold in 2024 is unclear: The monthly interest rate from the U.S. Fed is speculated to decrease in 2024, despite a vow of "higher for longer". In December 2023, the thought of decreasing interest rates and the potential of a Bitcoin ETF fuelled market sentiment towards riskier assets.

Submission Description

The cryptocurrency is not just a new form of value store and exchange, it is a revolution of its own. Beginning with its use to provide peer-to-peer payment network (or digital money) like Bitcoin, today’s cryptocurrency, or crypto for short, have evolved way beyond its humble start. Underlying the crypto world, there lies amazing technology called Blockchain. In simple term, blockchain is a decentralized and shared digital ledger that records transactions transparently and immutably across nodes in the network. Today’s Crypto community has slowly turned into industry of its own introducing a whole spectrum of enigmatic pattern, trends, and economic framework. In this report we will explore the trend, correlations, and dynamics related to 20 selected Crypto projects to derived insights and build models that predict the future of crypto. Key Findings: Our exploratory data analysis (EDA) underlines the span and general pattern of the Google Trend and Price related data. The data being analyzed span from the earliest entry on 2014-09-17 up to the latest on 2024-04-07. Time series decomposition was performed to extract trend, seasonal cycle, and residuals that made up the Google Interest Trend data. Analysis on the time-series decomposition help us distinguish cluster (a) with projects on the rise such as Solana, SingularityNet, Fetch.ai, and Ocean Protocol; and cluster (b) containing old project such as Dogecoin, Litecoin Filecoin, Tezos that are facing stagnant/downfall trend. Based on the Google Trends’s Correlation across projects we characterize Highly correlated projects cluster with correlation of about >0.8, and up to 0.92 with Bitcoin-Ethereum-Chainlink-Litecoin-Monero as the prominent group members. By introducing additional Google Trend data to understand Crypto Narrative, we worked toward building interpretable Event/Entity driving the market sentiment to explain our decomposed Time-series data. Based on Lag Characteristics in Correlation of Google Trend and Price/Trade Volume we highlight the tendency for the correlation to accumulate at longer lag time. Using NeuralProphet Framework we build forecasting models for Google Trend and Token Price for all 20 projects investigated here. We deployed these models to predict Trend and Price for all 20 projects for the following 52 weeks (up until April 2025). The developed models performed extraordinarily well with the R^2 value for most fall between the range of 0.75-0.88, while the highest goes up to 0.919. We highlight the correlation between Bitcoin, Ethereum, Ocean, with the rest of other projects. Ocean and Bitcoin, also Ethereum and Solana are the most correlated, both with correlation value of 0.89. The Kucoin’s KCS token is the least correlated with both Ocean and Bitcoin (0.31), while with Ethereum, Filecoin have the least correlation (0.41).

Conclusion This investigative study presents a thorough data analysis and exploration of correlations, time-lag characteristics, and time-series decomposition concerning Google Trends and token prices for 20 selected crypto/blockchain projects. By decomposing the time-series data, we have identified several clusters of crypto projects that is moving up in popularity such as Fetch.ai, SingularityNet, Solana, Ocean and some others that are stuck or in downfall trend, such as Dogecoin and Litecoin. Our analysis also includes a detailed exploration of various factors that contribute to understanding the data better, such as the incorporation of event-driven trends that explain outlier spikes in the residual data from our decomposed time-series.

In addition to our in-depth analysis, we build strong mini-library of forecasting models for predicting the Google Trend as well as price for the upcoming year with R^2 score that goes as high as 0.88 for most cases. Moreover, in order to demonstrate the utility of our exploratory data analysis tools and pipeline in full we also include all the results and analysis output produced in this work.

Looking ahead, we plan to expand our developed forecasting models and the presented data into a "CryptoForecast MiniApp." This application, based on the Streamlit package, will be hosted on a decentralized cloud (Akash) and connected to the Ocean marketplace and Predictoor, enhancing accessibility and utility for users interested in real-time data for Google Trends and Crypto Token Price forecasts.

Cryptocurrency historical datasets from January 2012 (if available) to October 2021 were obtained and integrated from various sources and Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) including Yahoo Finance, Cryptodownload, CoinMarketCap, various Kaggle datasets, and multiple APIs. While these datasets used various formats of time (e.g., minutes, hours, days), in order to integrate the datasets days format was used for in this research study. The integrated cryptocurrency historical datasets for 80 cryptocurrencies including but not limited to Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), Binance Coin (BNB), Cardano (ADA), Tether (USDT), Ripple (XRP), Solana (SOL), Polkadot (DOT), USD Coin (USDC), Dogecoin (DOGE), Tron (TRX), Bitcoin Cash (BCH), Litecoin (LTC), EOS (EOS), Cosmos (ATOM), Stellar (XLM), Wrapped Bitcoin (WBTC), Uniswap (UNI), Terra (LUNA), SHIBA INU (SHIB), and 60 more cryptocurrencies were uploaded in this online Mendeley data repository. Although the primary attribute of including the mentioned cryptocurrencies was the Market Capitalization, a subject matter expert i.e., a professional trader has also guided the initial selection of the cryptocurrencies by analyzing various indicators such as Relative Strength Index (RSI), Moving Average Convergence/Divergence (MACD), MYC Signals, Bollinger Bands, Fibonacci Retracement, Stochastic Oscillator and Ichimoku Cloud. The primary features of this dataset that were used as the decision-making criteria of the CLUS-MCDA II approach are Timestamps, Open, High, Low, Closed, Volume (Currency), % Change (7 days and 24 hours), Market Cap and Weighted Price values.

Context

Blockchain technology, first implemented by Satoshi Nakamoto in 2009 as a core component of Bitcoin, is a distributed, public ledger recording transactions. Its usage allows secure peer-to-peer communication by linking blocks containing hash pointers to a previous block, a timestamp, and transaction data. Bitcoin is a decentralized digital currency (cryptocurrency) which leverages the Blockchain to store transactions in a distributed manner in order to mitigate against flaws in the financial industry.

Nearly ten years after its inception, Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies experienced an explosion in popular awareness. The value of Bitcoin, on the other hand, has experienced more volatility. Meanwhile, as use cases of Bitcoin and Blockchain grow, mature, and expand, hype and controversy have swirled.

Key Factor of the Digital Coin Market

Financial Inclusion to Increase the Demand Globally

Financial inclusion is poised to drive increased demand for cryptocurrencies on a global scale, fundamentally transforming the traditional financial landscape. Cryptocurrencies offer a unique opportunity to extend financial services to underserved and unbanked populations, providing them with access to secure and low-cost digital payment solutions, savings accounts, and investment opportunities. In regions where traditional banking infrastructure is limited or inaccessible, cryptocurrencies serve as a viable alternative, offering individuals greater control over their finances and the ability to participate in the global economy. Furthermore, the decentralized nature of cryptocurrencies removes barriers to entry, enabling anyone with an internet connection to transact and store value without relying on intermediaries or facing discrimination based on socioeconomic status.

As awareness of the potential benefits of cryptocurrency for financial inclusion grows, governments, international organizations, and fintech companies are increasingly investing in initiatives aimed at expanding access to digital financial services.

Decentralized Finance (DeFi) to Propel Market Growth

Decentralized Finance (DeFi) is poised to be a key driver propelling the growth of the cryptocurrency market. DeFi represents a revolutionary paradigm shift in traditional finance, offering a wide range of financial services and products built on blockchain technology and smart contracts. By eliminating intermediaries and facilitating peer-to-peer transactions, DeFi platforms enable users to access lending, borrowing, trading, and yield-generating opportunities in a permissionless and transparent manner. This democratization of financial services not only expands access to previously underserved populations but also creates new avenues for innovation and value creation.

As the DeFi ecosystem continues to mature and evolve, with an ever-expanding array of protocols and applications, it attracts increasing attention and investment from both retail and institutional participants. The growth of DeFi not only drives demand for cryptocurrencies as the primary means of exchange and collateral within these platforms but also contributes to the broader adoption and acceptance of digital assets.

Market Restraint of the Digital Coin Market

Regulatory Uncertainty to Limit the Sales

Regulatory uncertainty represents a significant constraint that can limit sales and overall market growth within the cryptocurrency industry. The lack of clear and consistent regulatory frameworks across different jurisdictions creates uncertainty for businesses, investors, and consumers, leading to hesitancy in adopting and transacting with cryptocurrencies. Regulatory ambiguity may result in legal and compliance risks for businesses operating in the cryptocurrency space, deterring potential sales and investment. Moreover, uncertainty regarding the taxation, licensing, and legal status of cryptocurrencies can hinder mainstream adoption and acceptance, as individuals and businesses may be reluctant to engage in transactions involving digital assets.

By 2025, the Bitcoin market cap had grown to over 2,000 billion USD as the cryptocurrency kept growing. Market capitalization is calculated by multiplying the total number of Bitcoins in circulation by the Bitcoin price. The Bitcoin market capitalization increased from approximately one billion U.S. dollars in 2013 to several times this amount since its surge in popularity. Dominance The Bitcoin market cap takes up a significant portion of the overall cryptocurrency market cap. This is referred to as "dominance". Within the crypto world, this so-called "dominance" ratio is one of the oldest and most investigated metrics available. It measures the coin's market cap relative to the overall crypto market — effectively showing how strong Bitcoin compared to all the other cryptocurrencies that are not BTC, called "altcoins". The Bitcoin dominance was above 50 percent. Maximum supply and scarcity Bitcoin is unusual from other cryptocurrencies in that its maximum supply is getting closer. By 2025, well over 19 million out of all 21 million possible Bitcoin had been created. Bitcoin's supply is expected to reach its maximum around the year 2140, likely making mining more energy-intensive.
