        Cryptocurrencies are a relatively new and fast-growing topic in the modern digital economy. Generally, cryptocurrencies are an asset in the block chain that can be exchanged between actors and so used as a means of payment. Completely decentralized cryptocurrencies such as bit coin have attracted public interest and have been much more successful than previous digital currencies. Despite the importance of these currencies, in third world countries such as Iran, people do not want to use this type of currency for their business. Consequently, in the current study, the researchers find and rank the challenges of using cryptocurrencies in international trade. For this purpose, the challenges of using cryptocurrencies were identified by the literature review. Then the known factors were prioritized using the analytic hierarchy process. In general, four criteria and twenty-eight indicators were compared. The results reveal that technical factors are the most important criteria compared to the goal. Risk-taking is the most important personal reason. Negative attitudes toward cryptocurrencies are the most important social reason in society. Lack of sufficient budget to develop the use of cryptocurrencies is the key financial reason and the lack of correct finding of the parties to the transaction is the most significant technical reason that can affect the acceptance of cryptocurrencies in international trade.

        Important decisions are always the imperatives of the crisis in the first moments. The speed of crisis control is higher, whatever the speed of decision-making be more by crisis management. Since each country is exposed to different crises, and Iran is also one of these countries, the objective of this investigation is to design a budgeting model for crisis management. In the present study, a questionnaire with 37 items was designed based on the research background to identify crisis management and operational budgeting criteria. The statistical population of this study has been developed from 100 industry experts and professors in crisis management and 100 experts in operational budgeting. The final population of the research is used to determine the credibility of the combined model, including all ministries and government agencies in the context of budgeting and crisis management; this population consists of approximately 250 specialists selected from 85 specialists for exploratory factor analysis by principal components analysis and factor ranking. Also, 150 people are selected for the final fitting of the model. Smart Partial Least Squares (PLS) structural equation software was used in this research. The results revealed that the severity of the effect of pre-crisis and post-crisis criteria was respectively calculated to be 0.496 and 0.416 on operational budgeting, and 0.328, and the test probability statistic was higher than the critical value t at the error level of 5% namely 1.96. Consequently, all three criteria possess a positive and significant effect on operational budgeting with 95% confidence. By studying the fitting of the model, it was determined that the subscription indicators and the redundancy indicator are positive and acceptable, and the GOF indicator was obtained to be 0.486, which is an important indicator and presents the overall validity of the model.

Since in the process of organizational culture management, first, it is necessary to know the existing organizational culture and then to achieve the desired culture, the reforms are implemented gradually and step by step, the purpose of this research is to identify organizational culture indicators and examine the current situation in the Welfare Bank of Iran. This research is applied in terms of purpose, a descriptive correlational in terms of nature, and a survey in terms of method. Its statistical population is the employees of the Welfare Bank of Iran. The sample size was 344 people who were selected by stratified random sampling. We used a researcher-made questionnaire to collect information. We set up the organizational culture questionnaire in 9 factors and 42 sub-dimensions (indicators). The experts confirmed the formal and content validity of the questions. Cronbach's alpha coefficient was calculated to be higher than (0.7), which indicates the internal consistency of the items and the confirmation of reliability. In order to analyze the data, we used structural equation modeling using Amos software. The results showed that the organizational culture measurement model including components (development of capabilities, ideals and goals, communication, coordination and cohesion, risk-taking, customer orientation, leadership style, employee rewards, and promise) had a suitable goodness-of-fit. According to the calculated factor loads, the three questions had a factor load of less than 0.5; therefore, they were excluded from the analysis process. According to the results, we can say that in the population under study, the mean of organizational culture variable is above average (3) and is at the desired level (p-value <0.05).
