Abstract
The previous chapters have investigated the advancements and revolutions empowered by the joint forces of every pair of two out of the three significant concepts underlying the focus of this book. The rapid advancements of each concept have not only broadened the horizon of its own use cases but also promoted the developments of the others. Meanwhile, each concept itself is also positively influenced by the others’ revolution and leads to even more advanced improvements. In this chapter, the technological advancements, wider applications, and challenges resulting from the fusion of Big Data, Blockchain, and Cryptocurrency together will be comprehensively discussed. A subsection is also dedicated to FinTech considering its significance of being the pioneering marketplace for emerging implementations that closely integrated technological advancements.
