Analiză bibliometrică asupra raportării financiare a criptomonedelor

Abstract

This study delves into the world of cryptocurrency financial reporting (CFR) research, exploring the connections between researchers, their institutions, and the countries they represent, considering the context in which cryptocurrencies financial reporting practices remain uncertain. Data from the Web of Science Core Collection were employed, mainly publications from 2016 to 2023, using the term “cryptocurrency financial reporting” to identify publications regarding this topic. By leveraging tools like VOSviewer, Biblioshiny, and Microsoft Excel, we pinpointed influential research on CFR, collaboration networks among researchers, thematic groupings, and research trends. A unique aspect of the study is the classification of findings into three themes: “financial reporting” in 100% of the manuscripts, “asset evaluation” 61%, and “asset recognition” 72%. Our results suggest that while collaboration among researchers in this field is still developing, the innovative nature and growing recognition of CFR have the potential to attract more researchers. The limitation consists in the fact that the timeframe is limited, as data was gathered in March 2024, and the key term was found in a low number of publications. Given the dynamic nature of CFR, this bibliometric analysis might benefit from updates to capture the latest developments.
