We are waiting for Web 3.0, an improved version of today’s Web 2.0 internet. However, Web 3.0 cannot materialise without real-time data. Blockchain, the backbone of Web 3.0, lacks the real-time data. Many researchers are working to resolve this issue.

DataStax is making Ethereum blockchain available as a service to users. Here developers can use open API. They can make queries, and can have access to real-time data.

Payment settlement systems are being developed on blockchain. Banks are attempting reconciliations with blockchain, though this demands a lot of processing. Blockchain is entering the backoffice of the banks.

An incentive to Web 3.0 are the steps towards the development of metaverse. Web 3.0 and metaverse have a symbiotic relationship.
