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.

In 2020 we not only celebrated our 20th birthday but our 1st birthday as being completely employee owned after becoming an E.O.T in September 2019. We are proud to be different and embrace standing apart on a book mountain by working from a virtual inventory which allows us to provide thousands of books that may be difficult to get for your bookshelf or your studies. Working with a number of different suppliers allows us to explore other avenues such as puzzles, sheet music and even stationery so we really do have something for everyone. Life is about being versatile in all realms of existence.
