Understanding Blockchain Adoption in Italian Firms
This study investigates individuals’ blockchain adoption behavior
focusing on the Italian setting, and gathering perceptions from information systems
practitioners and entrepreneurs. The aim of the paper is to understand what are
the factors that push organizational actors to use the blockchain. To this aim we
embrace the second version of the unified theory of acceptance and use of technology
(UTAUT). The model was estimated using the structural equation modeling
with partial least square estimation (PLS-SEM). Our results show that performance
expectancy and social influence are factors that have a strong positive effect on people
intention to adopt blockchain. Surprisingly, the findings unveil that experience has
a negative effect on blockchain use intention. This allows us to argue that the technology
under scrutiny has such a disruptive nature that individuals with previous
experience look at it with skepticisms as its implementation involves a full re-think
of all routines and practices
