As the application of blockchain continue to expand, its technology and concepts are increasingly receiving attention from governments and enterprises worldwide. Particularly, Bitcoin, as one of the earliest and successful blockchain applications, has gained significant public interests. This paper will discuss the impact of miners’ different risk attitudes on the Bitcoin network performance, using system dynamics for modeling and analyzing.Based on the characteristics of the Bitcoin network, it is clear that short-term and medium-long term fluctuations in Bitcoin prices will affect miners’ residence time and their sensitivity to ROI. These two factors will change the number of miners in the Bitcoin network, ultimately affecting the hash rate of the Bitcoin network. With this concept, this study first constructs a system dynamics model based on the actual scenario of the Bitcoin network and classifies Bitcoin miners into three major categories according to their different risk attitudes: (1) risk-averse miners, (2) risk-neutral miners, and (3) risk-seeking miners. The study explores how these three types of miners with different risk attitudes are affected by fluctuations in Bitcoin prices, thereby causing changes in the hash rate in the Bitcoin network.Through simulation experiments, this study finds that the three types of miners with different risk attitudes have a significant impact on the Bitcoin network. Risk-averse miners may choose to reduce their mining time if Bitcoin price plummet, thus affecting the number of miners in the network and leading to a decrease in hash rate. On the other hand, risk-seeking miners are less affected by the decline in Bitcoin price; instead, if Bitcoin price rise, they will increase their time spent on mining significantly, resulting in a higher number of miners and an increased hash rate. Meanwhile, the number of risk- neutral miners in the bitcoin network remain relatively stable. On top of that, we also find that even for miners with the same risk attitudes, the extent of the impact on the number of miners and the hash rate varies when facing short-term and medium-long term price fluctuations.This study is of great magnitude for understanding the impact mechanisms of miner behaviors on Bitcoin network. It helps people understand the role of miner behaviors in the Bitcoin network and even promotes the healthy development and application of blockchain technology. Future research can further consider other blockchain systems and different miner incentive mechanisms to increase the universality and practicality of this study.參考文獻 Bissias, G., Levine, B.N., & Thibodeau, D.
