Abstract
In this chapter, we present market analysis of blockchain-based cryptocurrencies from two perspectives. The one is about what features we can take into consideration based on cryptocurrencies market and what we can find by analyzing them. We will illustrate it by analyzing some interesting features on Ether market and compare them with Bitcoin during the same time period. The other is about detecting abnormal behaviors on cryptocurrencies market. We will introduce how we detect “pump & dump schemes” on cryptocurrency market using an improved Apriori algorithm.
