Understanding cryptocurrency as a technology, investment vehicle, or commodity was important even before the Financial Crisis. However, the success of cryptocurrency will be determined by society's willingness to use it. Knowledge, awareness, and perception are the most commonly used antecedents to explain intention to use due to the existence of several models that incorporate the aforementioned factors. Thus, the goal of this study was to determine Malaysian students' level of knowledge, awareness, and intention to use cryptocurrency. The data was gathered by distributing a survey questionnaire to 221 Malaysian students. The structural equations were validated using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) software, which was also used to validate the research hypothesis. Among other findings, the most important finding is that all hypotheses can be tested for validity, and that there is a statistically significant relationship between students' knowledge, level of awareness, perception, and intention to use cryptocurrency in Malaysia.
