What is India’s ONDC (Open Network for Digital Commerce)?

India's ONDC is established to democratize and create a level-playing field for e-commerce superpowers. ONDC was incorporated by the Department for Promotion of Industry and Internal Trade (DPIIT) as a private non-profit (Section-8) company to establish the public digital infrastructure to expand access to India's e-commerce ecosystem and offer alternatives to proprietary e-commerce sites. Since ONDC will not follow a platform-centric model, the Indian government hopes it will democratize the country's online market for all buyers and sellers, irrespective of their size, so that millions of small retailers and mom-and-pop (Kirana) stores get an equal opportunity. ONDC is the answer to end the abuse of the aggregators' superpower - a prospective alternative to dominant global giants Amazon.com and Walmart's Flipkart [...]

What is Metaverse?

Metaverse is a combination of multiple elements of technology, including augmented reality, virtual reality, and video, where users "live" within a digital universe. When the Internet was still new, American Novelist 'Neal Stephenson spoke about virtual reality. In his 1992 dystopian novel Snow Crash. In the book, the Metaverse is presented as the ultimate evolution of the Internet — a kind of virtual reality where any virtual interaction can have a direct impact on the real world too.

The Decentralized Internet of the Future - the next iteration of 'World Wide Web - WWW,' is on the rise and brings the blockchain revolution with it.

Cryptos Asset Class Dilemma

India is at the forefront of the 'Crypto' Revolution; defining Asset Class for new-age digital assets will be a game-changer for the Country's Economic Growth. Cryptocurrencies have caught attention as an asset class in the last few years with a $3-trillion market opportunity. They have gone mainstream on the back of their sharp rally despite being famed for their volatility and uncertainties around regulations in many countries, including India. The digital token went further into the mainstream in 2021 as institutions, and retail investors got involved with the crypto market. The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has opened a dedicated department for fintech that will help create regulations for cryptocurrency and its upcoming Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC) for wholesale [...]

What is Embedded Finance? (Contd)

How is Embedded Finance going to change the Fintech World? Global giants like Amazon, Mercedes, IKEA, or Walmart are cutting out the traditional banks, the financial middleman, and plugging in software from start-ups to offer customers everything right from Credit, banking, and insurance. As a result, they have now cracked the code for Finance. Until recently, if an organization wanted to offer financial services, they were required to form a FinTech arm within their business. This included an enormous capital expenditure, which took years to develop and a long time to show profits. Embedded Finance Infrastructure reduces the barriers approximately 10x for digital platforms to natively offer financial services to their customers.

What is Graph Neural Network (GNN)?

Introduction to Graph Neural Networks (GNN) - their need and real-time applications. What is a Graph? A graph is a data structure consisting of two components Nodes (vertices) and Edges in computer science. A graph G can be defined as G=(V, E), where V is the set of nodes, and E are the edges between them. If there are directional dependencies between the nodes, then edges are directed; if not, edges are undirected. Therefore, a graph can represent things like molecules or social media networks. Think of nodes as users and edges as connections. Why is Graph data hard to analyze? Graph data is very complex, that it has created a lot of challenges for existing Machine Learning (ML) algorithms. [...]
