An international comparative study on the intension to using crypto-currency

초록

Currently, various cryptocurrencies are being traded throughout the day for the whole 24 h via crypto-currency markets in this borderless virtual world. Many people invest in cryptocurrencies which can be utilized and replace existing currencies. Despite this, not many studies on actual demand for cryptocurrencies have been conducted yet. This research extensively applied UTAUT to study elements influencing intention of usage for cryptocurrencies. It also added economic feasibility, payment convenience, government regulation, and risk as independent variables and established an UTAUT model applying said independent variables. Particularly, this research seeks to figure how characteristics among countries respond to the intention of usage for cryptocurrencies by comparing Korea, China, and Vietnam. ? 2019, Springer Nature Switzerland AG.
