Personal Interest in Doctoral Thesis Topic Most Important for Confidence in Successful Defence
A researcher at HSE University analysed data on 1,539 doctoral students from 161 Russian universities to identify which features of a thesis topic are associated with academic success and engagement. The most important factor was found to be personal interest in the research topic, which was associated with almost all key aspects of doctoral programme experience—from engaging with the academic supervisor to research activity and confidence about successfully defending the thesis. The findings have been published in Higher Education.

Typology of Digital Currencies

P. 121–124.
Lipatnikov V. S.

The goal of the present paper is to identify the main ways of use of cryptocurrencies and to clarify the place of cryptocurrencies in the system of digital currencies. Technological (use of distributed ledger) and organizational (absence of the center of emission) features of cryprocurrencies were identified. These features were used as a basis for a strategic classification matrix of digital currencies. Four main types of digital currencies were identified. It is demonstrated that cryptocurrencies can be divided into classic (decentralized) and centralized (collective) currencies. A description of specific features and prospects of development is given for each type of digital currencies. It is demonstrated that cryptocurrencies will mostly be used to increase the efficiency of payments, not as a substitute for traditional money. It is demonstrated that the refusal to use distributed ledger technology is not equal to refusal to use blockchain. Blockchain can be used to ensure high level of security for payment system with a sole emission center.
