The SEF special issue “Cryptocurrencies” was edited by Dr. Tonmoy Choudhury and PD Dr. Harald Kinateder and focusses on issues surrounding cryptocurrencies to better understand the theoretical and practical elements of cryptocurrencies and their implication on the modern financial environment. Cryptocurrencies are digital assets that neither have intrinsic value, nor do they offer a final promised payment or any dividends. Moreover, cryptocurrencies today do not broadly serve as legal tender in most countries around the world. However, cryptocurrencies are increasingly being used by private payment services and there is an increasing number of institutional investors. At the same time, there is a debate about the abuse of cryptocurrencies such as money laundering and scam. The intension of this special issue is to provide a comprehensive understanding of relevant topics including classical finance topics such as safe haven properties of cryptocurrencies and portfolio allocation issues as well as special topics such as Bitcoin’s stock to flow model and accounting for cryptocurrencies.
