Abstract:
Through our study, we studied the perception of the students of an economic faculty speciality which are at the end of their studies and who will soon become economists, and their attitude towards the cryptocurrencies. Their contacts inside or outside the university led to their professional development because they brought to their attention the widening of the sphere of finance through the prism of a new concept that appeared fifteen years ago, that of cryptocurrency. The main scope of the paper is to understand how students currently relate to cryptocurrencies, after going through all the subjects in the curriculum of their economic specialization. The methodology will involve the use of a structured interview. Important results of our study will be related to the fact that the female students interviewed, who, unlike almost all of the female students, are or say that they will be involved in trading cryptocurrencies in the near future and to the fact that an important part of their information regarding the cryptocurrencies is obtained from outside the faculty. We will recommend, knowing the current situation of the interviewed students, to the teachers who teach various disciplines in the specialization of which the interviewed students are part of that they could try, in the situation where the taught subjects allow it, to offer to the students who will come in the following years additional information about the cryptocurrencies.
