“…The Piotrowska 2017 study used Polish websites, including forums, blogs, news services, and social media for survey invitations [18]. In some cases, existing surveys were adapted, such as one taken from Blockchain Capital's 2017 Bitcoin research at Erzincan Binali Yıldırım University [19]. Lastly, the Canadian studies used the Bitcoin Omnibus Survey along with opt-in panels and internet recruitment through website advertisements, offering rewards for survey participation [20][21][22].…”

This scoping review examines individual and societal use cases of Bitcoin in the peer-reviewed literature. Arksey and O’Malley’s scoping review methodology was used, and a comprehensive search strategy was employed using Web of Science and Engineering village databases. Articles were screened at the title and abstract and full-text levels by the authors. One author conducted data extraction to summarize the data. In total, 17 relevant articles were included in this review. Investment and savings were the most widely reported use cases at an individual level, with payments and international transfers less frequently reported in the studies. Only two studies reported on societal use cases of legal tender; however, only one country, El Salvador, executed its intention. Our study suggests that Bitcoin is being used by individuals around the world with little report of societal (e.g., country adoption) uses cases. For example, there is evidence on the internet and on a grass-roots level that Bitcoin is being used in circular economies; however, the peer-reviewed literature may not yet capture the extent and full benefits and challenges. As such, we provide ideas for future research to more comprehensively explore Bitcoin uses and its impacts on individuals and society.

“…Уосталом, у том капацитету је и коришћен примарно, конкретно ради куповине и продаје робе и услуга путем интернета (Vareško i Deković, 2022). Ипак, будући да је временом постајао све глобалнији и разноврснији као инструмент (Karabulut & Sari, 2022), Биткоин је најавио крупне промене на међународном, глобализованом тржишту роба и капитала (Živanović i Vitomir, 2022). Неке од њих су се и десиле у претходном периоду.…”

“…То је темељна идеја која је окупила највећи, свакодневно растући број учесника у систему. 25 Иако је због новине феномена и непостојања адекватне временске дистанце у односу на коју бисмо процењивали стварне ефекте незахвално изводити закључке или правити пројекције, сматрамо, а то је уједно став и у академским круговима, да криптовалуте представљају изванредну новину (Karabulut & Sari, 2022). Оне засноване на блокчејн технологији, а које нису централизоване, имају моћ да национална тржишта претворе у регионална, а регионална даље у глобална.…”

Bitcoin and the "fourth wave" of globalization

The tendency to transform individual social communities into a universal, unified society which knows no boundaries (or at least does not insist on them), with the necessary dose of simplification, is the conceptual definition of globalization. Since it is a tendency, globalization naturally has its own temporal dimension. The process of determining the time coordinates of this phenomenon is extremely complex and the results may vary depending on the scientific approach and point of view. However, we believe that it is possible to reach a consensus that the process of globalization is not continuous, but has several phases. We tend to think that there are three main phases of globalization. Of course, we fully respect other competing systems of periodization and argumentation on which they are based. Nevertheless, we do not doubt that proponents of different periodization would agree that a new phase of globalization began recently, although it is difficult to determine the exact moment when it was initiated. Namely, on October 31, 2009, a mysterious developer, or more likely group of developers, behind the fictious name of Satoshi Nakamoto, published the so-called White Paper titled Bitcoin: A Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System. More than ten years later, on March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of SARS-CoV-2 pandemic. These two, at first glance unrelated events cumulatively initiated chain of new transformations, all leading toward a more unified society. Probably the most important change, one that is the focus of this paper, is the transformation of centralized localized monetary systems into completely decentralized, digitalized, totally independent, almost entirely self-sustaining, and self-regulating global financial structure. This paper presents a part of the results collected through the theoretical-empirical research conducted previously on both legal and socio-economic moments that initiated a new phase of globalization. These results refer mostly to events that initiated a new phase of globalization, their connections, and problems of periodization. The remaining results, results on the scope and expected overall effects of this phase, will be presented in the next article in this series. All the results of the research and conclusions were collected based on different analytical-synthetical methods, mostly abstraction and generalization. In this paper specifically, different techniques of the normative method were used. Also, special techniques of legal norm interpretation were used in the process.

On the deflationary nature of Bitcoin

Bitcoin was presented at the end of 2008 but the question still remains whether it is a form of money or something entirely different. Bitcoin was not designed with the aim to create money in a strict sense but primarily with the intention to make the transfer of value as effective as possible. Yet, Bitcoin has a capacity to take on the role of money, and that capacity was recognized in court cases. In this regard, the paper presents the results of the primarily empirical but also theoretical research conducted previously on the volatile but still very deflationary nature of Bitcoin and its effect on monetary obligations. The idea that cryptocurrencies can be also used as a hedging instrument to prevent the negative effects of domestic currency depreciation might be controversial for a number of reasons, one of which is certainly the volatile nature of bitcoin "price". We stress that periodic depreciation of its value does not mean that bitcoin is inflationary. On the contrary, bitcoin is deflationary by nature, which is evident in different in-built mechanisms and new ways of application. In this paper, the author uses different analytical method techniques to single out and describe various deflatory mechanisms, both preprogramed and factual ones. The author also applies the synthetical method and its techniques, primarily abstraction and generalization, to sum up the data confirming the main hypothesis that bitcoin is by nature deflationary despite its volatility and, therefore, it can be used as a hedging mechanism.
