AB - This paper introduces the Cryptocurrency Market Potential Index (CMPI) in order to measure the potential of the blockchain-backed cryptocurrency. Adopting the Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT) system as a conceptual framework, the whole process from development to implementation and adoption of blockchain-backed cryptocurrency are examined. This paper selects 30 variables and employs factor analysis for multivariate analysis to produce the CMPI for a total of 213 countries. The results show that although cryptocurrency is decentralized, its development and usage might still be very centralized in Europe, North America, hotspots in the Asia-Pacific, Middle East, and CIS regions. This result also highlights how important development and implementation are before adoption so that consequent financial transactions can take place.
