Answer 1

Answer:

   E-Commerce:  Amalgamation of the Digital and Physical world

When the, ".com" burst in the 1990's that was the time when people noticed how technology was boosting and changes were happening one step at a time.

Since the trend of E-commerce has set in, many wonder to themselves about the relationship of how it unites the digital world with that of the physical world.

For those of you who are unaware of this trendy term, E-commerce refers to the transaction  ( buying and selling ) of goods and services using the specific platform of the internet. So whatever advertisements and websites are used online, making use of the internet, all of those are included in sale by E-commerce. For example, Alibaba.com, Daraz.com, Amazon and many more. They make use of social media sites like Facebook and Instagram to advertise their goods and services. One click leads to deals and offers in the comfort of ones home.

Now why is e-commerce an amalgamation of the digital and physical world?

To answer this question, a person would scratch his head and think that, 'isn't is obvious, already'?

Well, I will lay it down for you. When a person from the physical, i.e. tangible world comes into direct contact with a digital platform, that unites them together, there is the justified link. For example, a woman sitting at home, orders a Gucci hand bag online, directly from their website. She makes use of the internet to do so.

This activity has been ongoing for a while now and its only time until the boundaries would get blurred even more, making it even more easier than in the past. For instance, looking at the emergence of bitcoin trends one can analyze how the currency will change from cash payments, to credit card and debit card payments, to bitcoin, i.e. digital currency on its own.
