• Abstract: The rapid spread of information over social media influences quantitative trading and investments. The growing popularity of speculative trading of highly volatile assets such as cryptocurrencies and meme stocks presents a fresh challenge in the financial realm. Investigating such "bubbles" - periods of sudden anomalous behavior of markets are critical in better understanding investor behavior and market dynamics. However, high volatility coupled with massive volumes of chaotic social media texts, especially for underexplored assets like cryptocoins pose a challenge to existing methods. Taking the first step towards NLP for cryptocoins, we present and publicly release CryptoBubbles, a novel multi-span identification task for bubble detection, and a dataset of more than 400 cryptocoins from 9 exchanges over five years spanning over two million tweets. Further, we develop a set of sequence-to-sequence hyperbolic models suited to this multi-span identification task based on the power-law dynamics of cryptocurrencies and user behavior on social media. We further test the effectiveness of our models under zero-shot settings on a test set of Reddit posts pertaining to 29 "meme stocks", which see an increase in trade volume due to social media hype. Through quantitative, qualitative, and zero-shot analyses on Reddit and Twitter spanning cryptocoins and meme-stocks, we show the practical applicability of CryptoBubbles and hyperbolic models.

• Cryptocurrency Price Forecasting Using XGBoost Regressor and Technical Indicators [2.038893829552158]
  This study introduces a machine learning approach to predict cryptocurrency prices. We make use of important technical indicators such as Exponential Moving Average (EMA) and Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) to train and feed the XGBoost regressor model. We evaluate the model's performance through various simulations, showing promising results.

  Multi-step stock price prediction over a long-term horizon is crucial for forecasting its volatility. Current solutions to multi-step stock price prediction are mostly designed for single-step, classification-based predictions. We combine a deep hierarchical variational-autoencoder (VAE) and diffusion probabilistic techniques to do seq2seq stock prediction. Our model is shown to outperform state-of-the-art solutions in terms of its prediction accuracy and variance.

  The Non-Fungible Token (NFT) market experienced explosive growth in 2021, with a monthly trade volume reaching $6 billion in January 2022. Concerns have emerged about possible wash trading, a form of market manipulation in which one party repeatedly trades an NFT to inflate its volume artificially. We find that wash trading affects 5.66% of all NFT collections, with a total artificial volume of $3,406,110,774.

  This paper performs an in-depth analysis of two market manipulations organized by communities over the Internet: The pump and dump and the crowd pump. The pump and dump scheme is a fraud as old as the stock market. Now, it got new vitality in the loosely regulated market of cryptocurrencies. We report on three case studies of pump and dump. Then, we leverage our unique dataset of the verified pump and dumps to build a machine learning model able to detect a pump and dump in 25 seconds from the moment it starts.
