In an era where Financial technology (FinTech) firms are increasingly dependent on blockchain technology, FinTech employees are confronted with information overload that can affect organizational performance. Grounded in socio-technical systems theory (STS), this study explores the role of blockchain financial communication adequacy in driving employee-perceived economic outcomes with occupational well-being and employee's workplace resilience as two mediating variables while employee perceived chatbot assistance in blockchain finance plays the moderating role. Data from 436 employees from a total of 3 FinTech firms with a blockchain native to Saudi Arabia were analyzed using SmartPLS. Results show that communication adequacy directly increases perceived economic outcomes and works through improved well-being and resilience. Moreover, every mediation channel is further enhanced with AI-chatbot support. These insights shed light on the synergies between humans and machines that are required to bring ledger transparency to financial success and provide a blueprint for practitioners looking to optimize socio-technical interfaces in digital finance
