In December 2018 I was involved in a story about the collapse of bitcoin and the "human" cost of the cryptocurrency's fall. I gathered and analysed the data using Python and the API from Companies House and Open Corporates.
I wrote about my process in a Medium post and I am sharing my notebooks with the code to gather the information and the cleaning and analysis process in R.
- The notebook companies_house shows the process to gather information from Companies House API.
- The notebook OpenCorporates shows the process to extract the data from OpenCorporates API API.
- The R Notebook called bicoin shows the cleaning process and the statistical analysis.
