Description

This chapter explores the transformative role of key technologies - artificial intelligence (AI), blockchain, cloud computing, and cryptocurrencies - in shaping contemporary digital strategies. It traces the historical evolution of these technologies and highlights their individual and synergistic contributions to business, governance, and society.

Cryptocurrencies, built on blockchain frameworks, are reshaping global financial systems through decentralization and security. The chapter also addresses the challenges and opportunities of technological convergence, including ethical considerations, regulatory challenges, and the strategic need for multidisciplinary collaboration. By analyzing these intersections, this article provides a comprehensive understanding of how AI, blockchain, cloud computing, and cryptocurrencies drive digital strategies' future. 2026 Manjari Sharma, Sharad Gupta.
