I'm not sure why any study is needed, you increase the money supply and you create inflationary pressure (not necessary inflation, as other factors are always involved)

The reason why I ask is because e has not replaced currency.

Are you talking about electronic dollars (dollar values in accounts like a checking account that can be spent), or various non-dollar private e-currencies like bit-coin? I was assuming the former. If you mean the latter, I don't think they are very significant at this point. If they did get very significant, they would effectively amount to demand for products, without an equivalent creation of new goods and services, so they probably would be inflationary even for dollar inflation.
