cryptocurrency price prediction is significantly
improved.
3.4 Limitations and Prospects
Despite the CNN-BiLSTM-AM model shows
significant advantages in prediction accuracy of
cryptocurrency price, its limitations cannot be
ignored. On one hand, the model is prone to be
affected by the quantity and quality of input data.
Given the nature of the cryptocurrency market being
susceptible to multiple external factors, if the training
data fails to fully capture these dynamic factors, the
predictive robustness of the model will be greatly
compromised. On the other hand, a significant
limitation lies in the high computational complexity
of the model. Integrating CNN, BiLSTM layers and
AM results in a sharp increase in resource
consumption. This not only prolongs the training
cycle, especially when processing massive data, but
also places higher demands on computing resources.
Looking forward, future researchers can focus on the
introduction of diversified training data. For example,
the model's sensitivity and forecasting ability to
sudden market changes can be significantly improved
by taking into account the macroeconomic indicators
and market sentiment analysis. Additionally,
advanced technologies such as reinforcement
learning can be combined to enhance the model's
capability to adapt to market changes in real time.
Meanwhile, expanding the application field of this
hybrid model to other financial markets such as
stocks and commodities, through cross-market
verification, will not only further evaluate its
universality and effectiveness, but also bring more
innovation to other fields of financial market
prediction.
4 CONCLUSIONS
To sum up, asset price forecasting is crucial in
financial investment and decision activities. Given
that cryptocurrency is a kind of financial assets with
high volatility, accurate prediction is particularly
challenging in this field. This paper innovatively
raises a hybrid CNN-BiLSTM-AM model to forecast
the cryptocurrency price of the next day. The research
selects three widely known cryptocurrencies (BTC,
ETH and LTC) to test different modelsβ performance.
Results indicate that the CNN-BiLSTM-AM model
ranks first compared with CNN, LSTM, and CNN-
BiLSTM according to prediction accuracy. This
finding proves the superiority of this hybrid model in
processing cryptocurrency price data and provides
new ideas for subsequent research and practical
applications. In conclusion, this study not only
contributes new methods and insights to the
prediction technology of the cryptocurrency market,
but also provides valuable reference and inspiration
for researchers in other related fields.
