The value of several cryptocurrencies has exponentially increased over the years. In this project, students will take a closer look at the price change of cryptocurrency and where it is potentially headed in the future.

Students will demonstrate their knowledge and understanding of finding the exponential model that best fits data in a real-world setting by performing the following:

  • Understand the basics of cryptocurrency
  • Research a cryptocurrency
  • Gather accurate data and create a table
  • Graph a scatter plot
  • Find an exponential equation of best fit 
  • Graph an equation
  • Predict future values of cryptocurrency using the equation of best fit 

INCLUDES 100% EDITABLE GOOGLE SLIDES FILES:

  • Note to Teacher
  • Project Overview
  • Introduction to Cryptocurrency Activity - students learn: What is cryptocurrency?
  • Pick your Cryptocurrency
  • Student Presentation Template
  • Answer Keys
  • Rubric
  • BONUS: Exponential Regression Calculator Sheet (not editable)

I used this resource in Financial Algebra 2 class. Was good practice.

Used this resource for high and GATE students as an independent project while I worked on reinforcing skills for the rest of the class. Students found it very engaging and really tried to do their best. Thank you so much!

Real World Math Projects

I am always trying to create or find projects where each students' project will be different than every other students in the class because it is more authentic this way. And of course, I want it to be applicable in the real world! This is not always easy to make because if every student’s project is different, or even has an unlimited number of solutions, checking each one is extremely difficult and time-consuming for the teacher. Well, guess what?!...these projects are authentic.
