Abstract

There are no studies related to the cryptocurrency exchange, unlike the explosive topic and the active transaction of the cryptourrency around the world. In this study, variables were constructed based on the previous researches to examine the effects of e-service qualities(information quality, transaction quality, design quality, safety quality), satisfaction and continuance intention of cryptocurrency exchange. The samples consist of 180 survey data drawn from the users of cryptocurrency exchange. The collected data were analyzed by SPSS 24.0 and AMOS 21.0. According to results of the reliability and validity test, all were found reliable, and all items were included. As a result of hypothesis testing through path analysis, First, the e-service qualities (information quality, transaction quality, design quality, safety quality) of the cryptocurrency exchange showed positive effects on satisfaction at the significance level of 1% and 5%. Second, e-service qualities (information quality, transaction quality, design quality, safety quality) of the cryptocurrency exchange were found to have positive effects on continuance intention at the significance level of 1% and 5%. Third, the satisfaction of the cryptocurrency exchange has a positive effect on continuance intention at 1% level of significance.

전 세계적으로 암호화폐의 거래가 활발하고 폭발적으로 화제를 불러일으키고 있지만 암호화폐 거래소와 관련된 연구는 전무한 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 암호화폐 거래소의 e-서비스품질(정보품질, 거래품질, 디자인품질, 안전품질), 만족, 지속사용의도 간의 영향관계를 알아보고자 선행연구들을 바탕으로 변수들을 구성하였다. 암호화폐 거래소 실사용자를 대상으로 설문이 이루어졌으며, 최종적으로 설문지 180부를 분석에 사용하였다. SPSS 24와 AMOS 21 통계프로그램을 이용하여 실증 분석하였다. 신뢰도와 타당성 분석 결과 모든 측정변수들은 통계적으로 유의한 것으로 확인되었다. 경로분석을 통한 가설검정 결과, 첫째 암호화폐 거래소의 e-서비스품질(정보품질, 거래품질, 디자인품질, 안전품질)은 유의수준 1%와 5%에서 만족에 긍정적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 암호화폐 거래소의 e-서비스품질(정보품질, 거래품질, 디자인품질, 안전품질)은 유의수준 1%와 5%에서 지속사용의도에 긍정적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 셋째, 암호화폐 거래소의 만족은 유의수준 1%에서 지속사용의도에 긍정적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다.
