2017 Technologies that will be “Better than Before” in 2018
Here we have listed the technologies of 2017 that will be more advanced to ensure a wonderful user experience in 2018.
With breakthrough inventions in mobility, payments technology and computing, 2017 has been a remarkable year for technology. The year also marked some interesting inventions like self-driving vehicles and making payments with face recognition. So, you must be excited to know what inventions 2018 can bring on the table. After all, technology is dynamic—some technology become obsolete early and some survive for years.
Here we will talk about the latter, meaning that this blog will be dedicated to the technologies of 2017, which are likely to influence 2018.
Blockchain was developed to support Bitcoin, a crypto-currency.
