“…The high explanatory power of performance expectancy gives rise to the first finding: performance expectancy is the determinant variable in the acceptance of cryptocurrency financial technologies. This finding is consistent with other studies that have found this variable to be determinant in the intention to use a given financial technology, including a biometric payment service (Kim et al, 2018), plastic money (Makanyeza and Mutambayashata, 2018), online banking (Khan et al, 2017; Sánchez-Torres et al, 2018), and m-banking (Kishore and Sequeira, 2016; Nisha, 2016; Farah et al, 2018; Hussain et al, 2018; Warsame and Ireri, 2018). Studies about cryptocurrencies and bitcoin in particular have reached the same results regarding the influence of performance expectancy on the intention to use, including in relation to electronic payments with cryptocurrencies (Mendoza-Tello et al, 2018) and bitcoin acceptance in China (Shahzad et al, 2018).…”
