Abstract

Bitcoin have become safe-haven for people who want to invest during COVID-19 with its volatile price. Numerous factors can affect the price but recently the most popular one was due to an Elon Musk tweet. We decided to investigate our questions. Do tweets regarding Bitcoin affect its price? Can we predict Bitcoin price by analysing sentiments from twitter? For our research, we decided to analyze the impact of twitter sentiments on Bitcoin price during the COVID-19 pandemic. Using VADER sentiment analysis, we attempted to find out what is the current public sentiment regarding Bitcoin. Coupling tweet sentiment with the Bitcoin price, we pursue making a predictive model to forecast whether Bitcoin price will rise or fall. We also compare whether having twitter sentiment analysis in our model will have an advantage compared to not using. In the end, we found out that twitter sentiment analysis have an impact to Bitcoin price. We hope that our research can help people during this financial stress period.
基于XGBoost的COVID-19期间Twitter情绪分析对比特币价格的影响
由于比特币的价格波动,它已经成为那些想在COVID-19期间投资的人的避风港。影响价格的因素有很多,但最近最受欢迎的是埃隆·马斯克的推文。我们决定调查我们的问题。关于比特币的推文会影响其价格吗?我们能通过分析推特上的情绪来预测比特币的价格吗?在我们的研究中,我们决定分析在COVID-19大流行期间twitter情绪对比特币价格的影响。通过维德情绪分析,我们试图找出当前公众对比特币的情绪。将推特情绪与比特币价格结合起来,我们追求建立一个预测模型来预测比特币价格是上涨还是下跌。我们还比较了在我们的模型中使用twitter情感分析与不使用相比是否有优势。最后,我们发现推特情绪分析对比特币价格有影响。我们希望我们的研究可以帮助人们度过这个经济压力时期。
