The world of initial coin offering #Infographic #ICO

This infographic provides a detailed look into Initial Coin Offerings. As this is a relatively new term in the world, not many people are aware of what it means, yet it can be explained in very simple terms. It could be described as putting the power of creating new projects or digital tokens into the hands of the people, rather than solely on the efforts of a company. It enables people to buy into and invest in businesses that are offering a new digital currency. It is conceptually similar to an IPO (Initial Public Offering), only it is dealing with new digital currencies.

A digital currency exhibits properties that are very similar to physical forms of currency, such as coins or banknotes, but they allow for transactions that can be instant, and they’re easy to transfer ownership. Depending on the cryptocurrency, some can be used to buy physical goods and services, and can be quite versatile, while on the other hand others can only be used to purchase a particular type of product.

Top Trends in Wireless Technology and Communication 2017 #Infographic #Wireless

Communication has been the basis of our civilization. Cave drawings from a million years ago tell us that there exists a primitive human need to convey thought, opinion and emotion. Now, we text, tweet, BBM, Snapchat, and Google… From cave etchings to Twitter, it’s been a fantastic journey. Homing pigeons and marathon men gave way the first telephone and radio, hailing the new era of communication technology that is our world.

Wireless communication, of course, is technology’s most ingenious contribution to humanity. In 1999, when the first wireless compatible devices began to be built, it was an exclusive niche market, but it evolved rapidly into mainstream life -an indispensable part of everyday business. Mobile devices like GPS units and phones have assisted communication from the remotest places on Earth and even space.

Smartphones and wireless devices that double-up as computer systems have aided sharing texts, photos, business-ideas, and work files; and they have clearly improved the productivity of workspaces. Increased internet speeds have made it possible to upload information on ‘virtual clouds,’ from any part of the world, increasing efficiency and introducing new ways of performing many different business tasks. In fact, the world today boasts of 700 million Wi-Fi connected internet users and around 800 million new devices being added every year. We’ve never been more ‘connected.’
