  CAP Theorem and The Blockchain Trilemma       The CAP ( Consistency, Availability and Partition Tolerance) theorem was formulated back in the 1980s. It states that any decentralized data storage (e.g blockchain) can satisfy only two of the three ingredients of the CAP theorem: Scalabality, Decentralization and Security. The Evolution of CAP Theorem in Blockchain Trilemma      The CAP Theorem has evolved into a blockchain trilemma. It means that a public blockchain infrastructure is meant to sacrifice either scalability, decentralization or security.       Scalability: The blockchain's scalability is its ability  to handle a greater amount of transactions.      Decentralization: Decentralization is a type of network redundancy  that ensures  that the network control is not under a few entities.      Security: It refers to the ability to secure data on the blockchain from different attack...

        The Essential Components of the Metaverse            The three essential  and contributing models for the metaverse are:  - Gaming Engines  - Virtual Environments - Virtual Economies Gaming Engines      Gaming Engines are used by software tool developers for building and running video games. Through these programs, 3D objects can be uploaded while the rules regarding moving these objects and adding sounds to  them can be applied. Gaming engines have more extensive uses lately. The two most popular gaming engines working are Unity and Unreal. Unreal is owned by Epic the company that made Fortnite. Gaming engines contribute to the further expansion of the development of the metaverse. Digital Twin      It refers to the physical objects using gaming engines and sensor data to create their stimulated software copy inside a computer. It means humans can interact with this software copy...
