Özet
Forecasting cryptocurrency prices is challenging due to extreme volatility, nonlinear dynamics, and frequent structural shifts in digital asset markets. While recent research increasingly applies deep learning architectures, the predictive advantage of highly complex models in noisy financial environments remains uncertain. This study evaluates the forecasting performance of shallow and deep learning approaches by comparing Support Vector Machines (SVM), Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM), and Gated Recurrent Unit (GRU) models, along with hybrid configurations (GRU + SVM, LSTM + SVM, and GRU + LSTM). Using daily data spanning from 1 October 2020 to 23 September 2025 for five major cryptocurrencies—Bitcoin, Ethereum, Binance Coin, Solana, and Ripple—the models are estimated within a consistent framework and assessed using out-of-sample performance metrics, including MAE, MAPE, MSE …
