Overview
As of March 2018, there are 1,658 cryptocurrencies in existence. The total cryptocurrency market capitalization is just under $369 billion. With the help of cryptography and a collective booking system called blockchain, cryptocurrencies build a distributed, safe and decentralized payment system, which does not need banks, intermediates, an organization or a central technical infrastructure to work.
However, mainly due to lack of regulatory support, Cryptocurrencies are highly volatile, which makes it a risky investment. Therefore, in this project, a Shiny web application is created with the cryptocurrency analysis in mind. It integrates three types of analysis: Time Series Analysis, Correlation Analysis and Portfolio Selection Analysis within one application. This application is made to be informative and allows potential investors of cryptocurrency to interact with the data embedded within the application, view the visualization and generate results based on the selected filters before they make decision on cryptocurrency investment.
Project Motivation and Objectives
We aim to achieve the following objectives in our project:
1. An overview of different cryptocurrency in time series, including open/close price, high/low price shown in a candlestick diagram and distribution of each cryptocurrency capital.
2. Correlation analyze among all cryptocurrency. Correlation analysis between Bitcoin and others cryptocurrency, which will help us reveal the similar price pattern of cryptocurrency.
3. Portfolio selection analyze in a deterministic optimization method. In this project, we will use this data as a starting point for a detailed analysis into what is driving price action, and what can be done to predict future movement.
