Abstract

This research develops an integrated framework that combines ensemble machine learning and explainable artificial intelligence to predict the performance of sustainable cryptocurrencies, including Avalanche, Build and Build (BNB) Chain, Polkadot and Solana, and to reveal the dependencies between the...
