“…In 2008 the idea for a digital currency was born under the pseudonym Satoshi Nakamoto which belonged to a person or group of people that have used this pseudonym (Ghimire & Selvaraj, 2018;Clarke et al, 2020), under the name Bitcoin, in the paper "Bitcoin: A Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System" (Nakamoto, 2008), in response to the 2007 global crisis and in response to the uninspired government actions to protect investors from a severe crisis, was deliberately created "free of any government and human intervention" (Janson & Karoubi, 2021). The first software was launched in early 2009, so the first Bitcoin cryptocurrencies were created then.…”

“…There are authors who state that "the value of BTC lies, mainly, in its secured network" (de Mombynes & Grandval, 2018). The value of BTC would not have increased if the first users were not aware of the value of these embedded services (Janson & Karoubi, 2021).…”

Through our study, we studied the perception of the students of an economic faculty speciality which are at the end of their studies and who will soon become economists, and their attitude towards the cryptocurrencies. Their contacts inside or outside the university led to their professional development because they brought to their attention the widening of the sphere of finance through the prism of a new concept that appeared fifteen years ago, that of cryptocurrency. The main scope of the paper is to understand how students currently relate to cryptocurrencies, after going through all the subjects in the curriculum of their economic specialization. The methodology will involve the use of a structured interview. Important results of our study will be related to the fact that the female students interviewed, who, unlike almost all of the female students, are or say that they will be involved in trading cryptocurrencies in the near future and to the fact that an important part of their information regarding the cryptocurrencies is obtained from outside the faculty. We will recommend, knowing the current situation of the interviewed students, to the teachers who teach various disciplines in the specialization of which the interviewed students are part of that they could try, in the situation where the taught subjects allow it, to offer to the students who will come in the following years additional information about the cryptocurrencies.

“…The implication of this is that the source that we gather our data from matters. Since exchange-based data providers present their own quotes, whereas extrinsic data providers like Bloomberg or Coinbase compute their own indexes, usually a weighted average of all prices across major exchanges, we use the data from Bloomberg, consistent with past research (Baur and Dimpfl 2021;Janson and Karoubi 2021;Ishida 2020, 2021;Cermak 2017).…”

This research investigates the function of price discovery between the Bitcoin futures and the spot markets while also analyzing the impact of investor sentiment and attention on these markets. This study utilizes various statistical models to examine the short-term and long-term relations between these variables, including the bivariate Granger causality model, the ARDL and NARDL models, and the Johansen cointegration procedure with a vector error correction mechanism. The results suggest that there is no statistical evidence of price discovery between the Bitcoin spot price and futures, and the term structure of the Bitcoin futures neither enriches nor impairs this lead lag relation. However, the study finds robust evidence of a long-run cointegrating relation between the two markets and the presence of asymmetry in them. Moreover, this research indicates that investor sentiment exhibits a lead lag relation with both the Bitcoin futures and the spot markets, while investor attention only leads to the Bitcoin spot market, without showing any lead lag relation with the Bitcoin futures. These findings highlight the crucial role of investor behavior in affecting both Bitcoin futures and spot prices.
