Big Data Set for Crypto Backtesting

Hi guys,

I have a huge data set from the past couple of months with the price of cryptocurrencies off of CoinMarketCap. The CoinMarketCap data is every five minutes. I collected data between August and November. The data is in csv format. Let me know if you are interested in the data in another format. https://github.com/iamrobinhood12345/coinmarketcap_data

Why? Backtesting is already an idiotic way to write a trading bot and by only using data between August and November you basically get a completely wrong, over-optimized algorithm.
