Abstract

Cryptocurrencies emerged with Bitcoin as a decentralized currency bringing freedom from institutions as well as uncertainty. Since then, lots of new cryptocurrencies have emerged. However, their diffusion among investors or among users as payment methods has been uneven. Several reasons could explain this discrepancy. This chapter will focus on the role of institutional base trust and present the potential role of four different institutions behind cryptocurrencies. To do so, it will describe four types of cryptocurrencies: Bitcoin as an independent cryptocurrency, JP Morgan Coin as a cryptocurrency backed by a reputable investment bank, Diem as a cryptocurrency managed by a famous brand, and Japanese-listed cryptocurrencies.
