Abstract

With the developments in technology, it has started to be used as an additional payment method in businesses due to the emergence and increasing popularity of cryptocurrencies. This study was aimed to measure the factors that affect the customers' intention to use cryptocurrency technology as a payment method in restaurants, by examining the four dimensions of mindfulness and the positive valences and the negative valences of the valence theory. In this context, an online survey was applied to 405 cryptocurrency users to collect data. Confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) was used to verify the measurement model, and the structural equation model (SEM) was used to test the model. The findings of the study reveal that the participants think that the convenience of using this method has no effect on the intention to use it, that using this method is beneficial, not risky, and that they will not have any privacy concerns if they use this method. This study offers valuable practical implications for restaurant operators in the context of cryptocurrency payment systems. This study successfully extended valence theory by adding awareness to valence theory.
