Abstract
After the initial surge in decentralized finance, widespread public adoption did not materialize. A predominant portion of the populace harbors distrust towards the crypto asset market. Conversely, banks, serving as intermediaries in financial management, enjoy heightened trust. The contemporary development within the banking sector indicates an inclination towards integrating into the crypto asset market. This integration results in new business models for banking institutions and emergent opportunities for their clientele. Prior research addresses perceptions surrounding cryptocurrencies. The present research augments this field by investigating the acceptance of crypto assets. Specifically, we conducted an empirical user study to analyze investing behaviors. By adapting the theoretical framework of the technology acceptance model to the unique characteristics of crypto assets, we highlight acceptance drivers. Notable variances in awareness of crypto assets affect investment decisions. The findings of this study contribute to social welfare by identifying impediments to sustainable investment practices. Additionally, these insights facilitate a more sophisticated comprehension of strategic alternatives available to banking institutions.
期刊介绍：
Electronic Markets (EM) stands as a premier academic journal providing a dynamic platform for research into various forms of networked business. Recognizing the pivotal role of information and communication technology (ICT), EM delves into how ICT transforms the interactions between organizations and customers across diverse domains such as social networks, electronic commerce, supply chain management, and customer relationship management.
Electronic markets, in essence, encompass the realms of networked business where multiple suppliers and customers engage in economic transactions within single or multiple tiers of economic value chains. This broad concept encompasses various forms, including allocation platforms with dynamic price discovery mechanisms, fostering atomistic relationships. Notable examples originate from financial markets (e.g., CBOT, XETRA) and energy markets (e.g., EEX, ICE). Join us in exploring the multifaceted landscape of electronic markets and their transformative impact on business interactions and dynamics.
