Abstract: For the past couple of years, Machine learning and trading helped by artificial intelligence has drawn growing interest. Here, the approach is used to test the hypothesis that the inefficiency of cryptocurrency industry can be exploited in order to produce anomalous revenue. For the duration between Nov. 2015 and Apr. 2018, daily data for 1, 681 crypto currencies were analyzed. Simple trade techniques supported by state-of -the-art machine learning algorithms are seen to outperform the traditional benchmarks. The results obtained imply that non-trivial, but fundamentally simple, algorithmic processes will help to predict the short-term future of the cryptocurrency market. The popularity of cryptocurrencies had skyrocketed in 2017 due to several consecutive months of super-exponential growth of market capitalization. There are over 1,500 currently recorded cryptocurrencies actively trading today with the cryptocurrencies sitting on more than $300 billion [2], and a total market capitalization of over $800 billion in January 2018. According to a recent survey, between 2.9 and 5.8 million privates as well as institutional investors are in the numerous investment networks and access to markets has become easier over time. In a number of online markets, major crypto currencies can be purchased using fiat currency, and then used in order to purchase less known crypto currencies. The average trading amount is globally exceeding $15bn. About 170 money market funds had been invested in cryptocurrencies since 2017, and Bitcoin futures are launched in order to satisfy the Bitcoin trading and hedging demand for the market. The main objective of the work is to predict the Bitcoin prices, one of the most popular and widely used cryptocurrency which is a source of attraction for many investors as a source of profit or investment. But the market for the cryptocurrencies been volatile since the day it was first introduced. So, the approach towards the survey is to use LSTM RNN and use the available dataset and train the model to give the highest possible accuracy and to provide a real-time price of the Bitcoin for the following days.
