About
This dataset provides historical daily price data for twelve prominent cryptocurrencies and two well-known currency pairs, covering the period from 2018 to 2023. It offers insights into the dynamic world of digital assets and foreign exchange markets. Cryptocurrencies are decentralised digital forms of money built on blockchain technology, employing encryption to secure and authenticate transactions. Unlike traditional fiat currencies, they are not typically issued by a central authority. The dataset also includes information on currency pairs, which illustrate the value of one currency against another, identified by their ISO codes. This collection is ideal for financial analysis, market trend observation, and research into the evolution of digital and traditional currency valuations.
