Cover Story: Accurate pricing forecasts are crucial for informed investment decisions, enabling investors to optimize portfolio allocations and mitigate risks. Traditional forecasting methods often struggle with the non-stationarity and complexity of cryptocurrency price dynamics. Our findings demonstrate that the GRU neural network outperforms these methods by effectively addressing these challenges. Our web application utilizes the trained GRU model and retrieves minute-step data from the YFinance API to generate forecasts for ten leading cryptocurrencies across 1, 2, 3, and 4-hour horizons. This application provides real-time predictions, empowering investors to enhance their strategies and stay ahead in the fast-paced world of cryptocurrency trading. View this paper
