Bitcoin is the first and most widely used cryptocurrency to date. Due to the significant volatility of the Bitcoin price and the fact that its trading method does not require a third party, it has gained great popularity since its inception in 2009 among a wide range of individuals. Given the previous difficulties in predicting the price of cryptocurrencies, this project will be developing and implementing a time series approach-based solution prediction model using machine learning algorithms which include Support Vector Machine Regression (SVR), K-Nearest Neighbor Regression (KNN), Extreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost), and Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) to determine the trend of bitcoin price movement, and assessing the effectiveness of the machine learning models. The data that will be used is the close prices of Bitcoin from the year 2018 up to the year 2023. The performance of the machine learning models is evaluated by comparing the results of R-squared, mean absolute error (MAE), mean squared error (RMSE), and also through a visualization graph of the original close price and predicted close price of Bitcoin in a dashboard. Among the models compared, LSTM emerged as the most accurate, followed by SVR, while XGBoost and KNN exhibited comparatively lower performance. |\n| IEEE style in citing this article:\u003Cbr>E.

Introduction  \nIn 2009, Bitcoin was introduced to the public. Since then, it has become the most famous cryptocurrency in the world. According to [1], about 18 million Bitcoins (BTC) are sold and exchanged. Satoshi Nakamoto, the pseudonym of Bitcoin's developer, declared that Bitcoin's purpose was to function as a decentralized electronic payment system based on cryptographic evidence rather than trust [2] . High price volatility implies that certain steps need to be taken to accurately predict bitcoin prices [3]. Investors are usually concerned about asset price volatility because price changes result in  \nimmediate capital gains and losses. Given the volatility, it is always challenging to predict the bitcoin price. [4] found that accurate forecasting of bitcoin prices can provide decision support to investors and provide reference to the government to enact regulatory policies.  \nAccurately predicting Bitcoin price movements is challenging due to the volatile nature of the crypt","cbCaih62aNJgggJW","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaih62aNJgggJW","pdf",920140,1,15,"English","en",105,"# Introduction\n## Background and motivation\n## Research aims and contributions","[{\"question\":\"Why is predicting Bitcoin cryptocurrency price challenging?\",\"answer\":\"Bitcoin shows significant volatility, and the market’s price fluctuations make forecasting difficult.
