While Bitcoin is the most famous, there are numerous other digital currencies?from Amazon Coin to Zetacoin. Beyond Bitcoin explores the economic forces underlying the design of their features and their potential. Halaburda and Sarvary argue that digital currencies are best understood by considering the economic incentives driving their creators and users. The authors present a framework that will allow systemic analysis of this dynamic environment and support further discussion of the design of digital currencies' features and the competition in the market. 606 $aMacroeconomics 606 $aEconomics 606 $aIndustrial organization 606 $aMicroeconomics 606 $aElectronic commerce 606 $aElectronic commerce 606 $aElectronic commerce 606 $aEconomic policy 606 $aEconomics 606 $aMacroeconomics/Monetary Economics//Financial Economics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W32000 606 $aEconomic Theory/Quantitative Economics/Mathematical Methods$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W29000 606 $aIndustrial Organization$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W31010 606 $aMicroeconomics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W31000 606 $ae-Business/e-Commerce$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/522060 606 $aPolitical Economy/Economic Systems$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W46000 615 0$aMacroeconomics. 615 0$aEconomics. 615 0$aIndustrial organization. 615 0$aMicroeconomics. 615 0$aElectronic commerce. 615 0$aElectronic commerce. 615 0$aElectronic commerce. 615 0$aEconomic policy. 615 0$aEconomics. 615 14$aMacroeconomics/Monetary Economics//Financial Economics. 615 24$aEconomic Theory/Quantitative Economics/Mathematical Methods. 615 24$aIndustrial Organization. 615 24$aMicroeconomics. 615 24$ae-Business/e-Commerce. 615 24$aPolitical Economy/Economic Systems. 676 $a332.40285/4678 700 $aHalaburda$b Hanna$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0954306 702 $aSarvary$b Miklos$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910255056903321 996 $aBeyond Bitcoin$92158472 997 $aUNINA
