Cryptocurrency Markets
In 2011, I started exploring the world of cryptocurrency, specifically Bitcoin.
Since then, cryptocurrency has exploded, with new articles regarding Bitcoin and Ethereum emerging every day. With this heightened energy, “experts” are always looking to spot and predict trends, however this information (in my opinion) is often lacking strong foundational data.
As a result, a recent article on Hacker News called “Analyzing Markets using Python” caught my eye.
The author (Patrick Triest), has created a great step-by-step guide to cryptocurrency analysis using Python, providing anyone the tools to complete their own data-driven investigation.
The work provides an excellent framework for cryptocurrency analysis, helping to identify arbitrage opportunities and saturation between exchange prices.
Patrick has made his work available on GitHub, which should be of interest to anyone actively investigating cryptocurrency.
