Recently, following the development of FinTech technology that combines finance and information and communication technology, the need and social demands for a block chain technology-based trading system have increased significantly. In this study, a research model was developed and hypothesized through literature research on the concept of block chain technology, the technology acceptance model, and the unified theory of acceptance and use of technology. The research theories were tested by collecting data through surveys and analyzing the collected data. This study conducted empirical research to identify the factors influencing the user acceptance intention and utilization behavior of the block chain technology in introducing the block chain technology. First, factors affecting the acceptance intention of the blockchain user were performance expectation, effort expectation, social impact, and blockchain transparency variables. Second, the facilitation conditions and stakeholder confidence variables were analyzed as factors that did not affect the acceptability of the blockchain users. Third, variables such as blockchain transparency, stakeholder trust and intention of acceptance are factors that affect the usage behavior of the blockchain. Fourth, it was confirmed that the acceptance intention had a very high explanatory power on usage behavior of Blockchain technology.

본 연구는 과거의 수익률에 근거한 투자전략인 반대투자 전략과 모멘팀 전략의 성과를 분석 하고 있다. 이러한 투자전략의 성과와 주식수익률의 시계열적 특성간의 관련성을 밝히고, 투자 성과를 기업고유 요인에 대한 주가의 과잉반응, 시장의 공통요인에 대한 주가의 반응, 그리고 개별주식의 평균수익률의 횡단면적 공분산에 기인한 부분으로 각각 분해하고 있다. 모멘팀 전략은 1주일 이상 6개월 정도의 포트폴리오 재구성 기간에 대하여 양의 성과를 보이고 있으며, 반대투자 전략은 3개월 이상 6개월의 정도의 기간에 대하여 유의적인 성과가 나타나고 있지만, 상승국면에서는 양의 성과가 나타나고 하락국면에서는 음의 성과가 나타나고 있다. 투자전략의 성과는 1주일 이내의 기간에 대해서는 수익률의 자기공분산에 의하여 주로 설명되며, 1개월에서 3개월 정도의 기간에 대해서는 교차공분산에 의하여 주로 설명되고, 6개월의 기간에 대해서는 개별주식 평균수익률의 횡단면적 분산에 의하여 주로 설명되고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 기간이 짧은 경우에는 투자성과가 주로 기업고유 요인에 대한 지연된 반응에 의하여 설명되며, 기간이 길어짐에 따라 주식수익률은 기업고유 요인에 대하여 과잉반응하는 것으로 나타나고 있다. 시장의 공통요인에 대해서 대체로 지연된 반응이 나타나며 기간이 길어짐에 따라 소규모기업의 주식은 시장의 공통정보에 대하여 과잉반응하는 것으로 나타났다.

Blockchain is a distributed network in a decentralized P2P infrastructure. In this paper, we propose and implement a blockchain-based pet trade service DApp(Decentralized Application). In the existing trading services, there is no way to know the status of dogs in interpersonal transactions and an additional distribution cost has been incurred. As a solution to this problem, we introduce a blockchain technology for a pet trade service where users can check whether an individual pet is healthy or not by its registered biometric data in order to have an efficient and confident trade service. The registered users can purchase puppies or registering information for their dogs to sell through a pet trade service DApp. It is also possible to make a reliable trade by verifying whether the dog is actually the same one through an inscription information of a dog.

On the Internet age, the news is generated and distributed not only by traditional news media, but also by a variety of online news media, news platforms, content websites/content farms, and social media. Since it is an easy task to create and distribute news, some of these news reports may contain fake or false facts. In the end, the cyberspace is full of fake or false messages. People may wonder if these fake news actually influence our decision making. In this paper, we discussed a real case of fake news. In this case, a Taiwanese company used some fake news, advertorial news, and news placement to manipulate or influence its stock price and trade volume. We collected all news for the case company during a period of four years and five months (from January 2013 to May 2017). We analyzed the relationship between published news and stock price. Based on the analysis results, we conclude that we should not ignore the influence of news placement and fake business news on the stock price.
