Modeling the price of Bitcoin with geometric fractional Brownian motion: a Monte Carlo approach
Abstract
The long-term dependence of Bitcoin (BTC), manifesting itself through a Hurst exponent H>0.5, is exploited in order to predict future BTC/USD price. A Monte Carlo simulation with 104 geometric fractional Brownian motion realisations is performed as extensions of historical data. The accuracy of statistical inferences is 10\%. The most probable Bitcoin price at the beginning of 2018 is 6358 USD.
