Context

Ethereum is a decentralized global software platform powered by blockchain technology. It is most commonly known for its native cryptocurrency, ether (ETH). On September 15 2022, Ethereum switched from using energy-intensive technology to a more sustainable system in a major update called "the merge".

On account of this Merge, let's study the hourly price movements of ETH/USD.

Content

The dataset has one csv file (ethusd.csv). Price history is available on a hourly basis from 17th August 2017, 4 a.m. This dataset has the historical price information of Ethereum against the US Dollar.

Open_time : date and time of observation
Open : Opening price of the hour
High : Highest price of the hour
Low : Lowest price of the hour
Close : Closing price of the hour
Volume : Volume of transactions of the hour

Inspiration

Some of the questions which could be inferred from this dataset are:

• Are there certain hours where the market is volatile?
• Is there any change in price movements on the weekends vs the weekdays?
• Are there certain hours where the market is stable?
• Predicting the future price of the currencies
• Seasonal trend in the price fluctuations
