Abstract
This study explores the use of Bitcoin by international graduate students and how it affects the security of their financial transactions. It's critical to understand the implications for people handling cross-border financial transactions given the increasing acceptance of cryptocurrencies, particularly Bitcoin, on a global scale. This study uses a mixed-methods research design with surveys and interviews to try to capture the complex viewpoints of graduate students from around the world. The study looks at why these students chose Bitcoin, as well as the perceived benefits and risks, cybersecurity issues, and overall impact on their financial security. The study closely examines the variables that impacted these students' decision to use Bitcoin, as well as the perceived risks and benefits, cybersecurity issues, and overall impact on their financial security. Through analyzing the many layers of Bitcoin transactions, this study seeks to reveal important new information that adds to the developing story about the use of cryptocurrencies and provides a more nuanced understanding of the practical implications for graduate students from around the world. By doing this, the study deepens the current conversation about the relationship between the financial security of students who are studying abroad and the adoption of cryptocurrencies.
