Abstract
This research is driven by the observation of cryptocurrency popularity cycles and the prevalence of scams in the industry. The aim is to understand the motivations and decision-making processes of investors in relation to cryptocurrency investments, particularly focusing on educating investors to make informed decisions about their investments. Through interviews, literature reviews, and analysis of social media data, the research seeks to gather insights into investor motivations and needs. The research questions explore the impact of managing emotions on investment decision-making and the development of safe and user-friendly approaches to learning about and engaging with blockchain and cryptocurrency. By addressing these issues, the research aims to create a safer environment and empower investors in the emerging technology space.
