  1. This Table shows the results of OLS regressions considering the Abnormal Returns (A.R.s) on the day of the event [0] and Cumulative Abnormal Returns (CARs) estimated at different event windows ([− 1,1], [− 2,2], [− 5,5], [0,1], [0,3]) as dependent variables. The High Exposure Dummy (Panel A) is collapsed into Top Tercile Acquisitions (BTC or ETH), Industry Pioneer in Accepting Cryptocurrency for Payments, and Worldwide Noticed M&As or Partnerships. Similarly, the Low Exposure Dummy (Panel B) is separated into Bottom Tercile Acquisitions (BTC or ETH), Only Partial Acceptance for Payments, and Plans to Accept Cryptocurrency for Payments. regressions include country-fixed effects and firm, industry, and market-level controls, as reported in Table 4. Robust standard errors are reported in parentheses. ***, **, and * represent statistical significance at the 10%, 5% and 1% levels, respectively
