The present study has been designed to identify a dynamic model of trust in blockchain-based advertising and acceptance of this type of advertising. In order to achieve the purpose of the research, the required information was collected by literature, background review and experts opinions. In the next step, the research information was analyzed using systems dynamics methodology (Sterman approach) and a dynamic research model was presented. After model validation and examining the causal relationships, simulations and scenario analysis were performed using Vensim software. The results show the positive effect of the audience, advertiser and advertising characteristics on trust in blockchain-based advertising and, consequently, the improvement of the audience loyalty coefficient. Also, the results of scenarios indicate an ascending growth (Pessimistic: about %60, Optimistic: about %80) in audience loyalty. Finally, practical suggestions were presented in accordance with the research results}, keywords = {Blockchain,Trust in Advertising,Blockchain-Based Advertising,dynamic model,System Dynamics}, url = {https://jitm.ut.ac.ir/article_87841.html}, eprint = {https://jitm.ut.ac.ir/article_87841_86bd14c0dcc49d9870dc58b0086ea58c.pdf} }
