Blockchain, metaverse, and digital payment technologies, collectively called digital ecosystem, have received much attention from academia, regulators, and industry alike. However, their usage across various sub-sectors of the economy and industry is slow, and deployment is still largely experimental. Due to its secure nature, many industrial players including banking and payment firms are looking for ways on using blockchain to develop consumer confidence and trust in the digital payments for wider adoptability and use.
This book provides an in-depth and relevant overview of the main theories, frameworks, technologies and innovations, institutional structures or regulations (GDPR, PSD2), and empirical research that investigates users’ perspectives on blockchain technologies, metaverse, and digital payments. With chapters from international contributors, the book presents historical and contemporary developments, innovations, laws and legislation, research, and analysis using qualitative, quantitative, and mixed-method approaches to the adoption and continuous usage of these technologies and platforms.
This timely collection offers valuable insights and empirical findings for bank executives, regulators, payment associations (VISA, MasterCard, etc.), policymakers, FinTech, BigTech, and start-up leaders who express interest in blockchain, metaverse, digital payments, as well as academia and researchers in the fields of business management, digital economy, digital technologies, and digital marketing.
