本研究旨在透過「區塊鏈中介機制」發展具有數位資產保護、智能合約應用，以及數位經濟運作之「元宇宙數位策展平台」。此一平台可透過「區塊鏈中介機制」來保護資產擁有者所上傳的數位資產，同時透過智能合約提供授權數位資產租用進行數位策展之數位經濟活動。此外，平台還提供策展者透過3D策展平台進行展間佈置和展間門票的販售功能，希望透過這樣的機制來實現一個具有正向創作循環的元宇宙數位策展生態系。
本研究以單組前實驗設計探討採用具「區塊鏈中介機制」之「元宇宙數位策展平台」輔以進行數位策展之展覽創作、數位資產保護與智能合約運用，以及觀展消費活動，在策展成效、科技接受度，以及不同策展成效研究對象在系統功能使用頻率上是否具有顯著的差異。另外，本研究亦輔以半結構化訪談法，以了解研究對象使用具有「區塊鏈中介機制」的「元宇宙數位策展平台」輔以進行數位策展的感受、看法和未來持續使用意願。
根據實驗結果，本研究所發展的具「區塊鏈中介機制」之「元宇宙數位策展平台」在資產擁有者、策展者和觀展者的科技接受度方面獲得了普遍高的評價。特別是在觀展者的科技接受度方面，高於資產擁有者與策展者，顯示3D展間的沉浸感和觀展體驗帶來了一定的效果。然而，在策展成效，以及資產擁有者、策展者，以及觀展者的科技接受度並沒有統計上的顯著差異。不過，高低策展成效研究對象在展間門票設定和展間影片的使用頻率方面則具有顯著的差異。最後，本研究透過訪談結果的綜合分析發現，大多數研究對象對於「區塊鏈中介機制」在資產保護與資產授權應用上持正面肯定的態度，並指出資產擁有者、策展者，以及觀展者之間的供給需求條件均需要同時獲得滿足，方可促進策展成效。此外，在未來平台持續發展方面，應該優先考慮賦予平台點數實際的經濟價值，才能有效發展具正向創作循環的元宇宙數位策展生態系。

The aim of this research is to develop a “Metaverse Digital Curation Platform” that utilizes blockchain intermediation mechanisms to provide digital asset protection, smart contract applications, and digital economy operations. This platform leverages blockchain intermediation mechanisms to safeguard the digital assets uploaded by asset owners, while enabling digital curation activities through authorized digital asset leasing via smart contracts. Additionally, the platform offers curators the functionality to arrange exhibition spaces and sell exhibition tickets through a 3D curation platform. The goal is to create a metaverse digital curation ecosystem that fosters a positive creative cycle of digital curation.
Using a single-group pre-experimental design, this research explores the adoption of the “Metaverse Digital Curation Platform” with blockchain intermediation mechanisms for exhibition creation, digital asset protection, smart contract utilization, and visitor consumption activities. The study examines the effectiveness of curation, technological acceptance, and whether there are significant differences in the frequency of system function usage among participants with different curation performance levels. Additionally, semi-structured interviews were conducted to understand the experiences, opinions, and future intentions of participants using the “Metaverse Digital Curation Platform” with blockchain intermediation mechanisms for digital curation.
Based on the experimental results, the “Metaverse Digital Curation Platform” with blockchain intermediation mechanisms developed in this study received generally high ratings in terms of technology acceptance from asset owners, curators, and visitors. Particularly, visitors showed higher technology acceptance than asset owners and curators, indicating the effectiveness of the immersive experience and exhibition visit. However, there were no statistically significant differences in curation effectiveness or technology acceptance among asset owners, curators, and visitors. Nevertheless, significant differences were observed in the frequency of setting exhibition ticket prices and using exhibition videos between participants with different curation performance levels. Finally, through the comprehensive analysis of interview results, most participants held a positive attitude towards the application of blockchain intermediation mechanisms in asset protection and authorization, and emphasized the importance of satisfying the supply and demand conditions among asset owners, curators, and visitors to promote curation effectiveness. Furthermore, for the future development of the platform, it is recommended to prioritize assigning actual economic value to platform tokens in order to effectively develop a metaverse digital curation ecosystem with a positive creative cycle.
