Sažetak

The significant increase in cryptocurrency trading on digital blockchain platforms has led to a growing interest in employing machine learning techniques for the effective prediction of highly nonlinear and nonstationary data, becoming increasingly popular among both individual and institutional market participants. The aim of this research is to deal with the challenging task of predicting the closing prices of two prominent cryptocurrencies, Binance Coin (BNB) and Ethereum (ETH), utilizing machine-learning techniques. This study evaluates the efficacy of various machine learning models in predicting cryptocurrency prices, with a particular focus on Support Vector Machines for Regression (SVR), least-squares Boosting (LSBoost), and Artificial Neural Networks and Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS). These models are compared under various metrics. ANFIS models exhibited superior predictive performance on both training and testing datasets based on diverse performance metrics. Comparatively, SVR with a linear kernel demonstrated strong generalization capabilities, particularly on the testing set. LSBoost, while showing promise in training accuracy, indicated results with higher test errors. ANN models maintained a balance between training and testing. This comparison showed the models’ effectiveness, particularly the robustness of ANFIS in capturing the volatile cryptocurrency market trends. The experimental data suggest that certain of the above models can be utilized to predict the ETH and BNB closing price in real time with promising accuracy and experimentally proven profitability.
