connected to the internet. However, this archived (but still relevant) infographic does a much
better job at visualizing this exponential growth.

There are roughly 10 billion devices connected to the web today. By 2020, Intel estimates there
The Internet of Things in 2020
will be 31 billion devices connected. Here are some other predictions for the IoT in 2020:

IDC forecasts the market to be worth $7.1 trillion

Cisco has estimated by then, 5 billion people and 50 billion devices will be connected

Morgan Stanley feels the number should be even higher: up to 75 billion devices connected in 2020

Regardless of whether it is 30 or 75 billion, that number is still huge – and investors need to stay
on top of this development. There is no shortage of opportunities!

Ranked: The Best-Selling Video Game Consoles of All Time
In 1972, the first-ever commercially available home video game console hit the market
—the Magnavox Odyssey. Players of the Odyssey had a choice between two built-in Sign Up
games that were stored directly in the device, and would use a joystick and dials as a
controller.

Video game consoles have come a long way since then, and the console market has
grown into a multi-billion dollar industry that’s expected to reach $72.67 billion in
value by the end of 2022.

This graphic by Enrique Mendoza uses data from VGChartz to show the market leaders
in the industry, by highlighting the top-selling video consoles of all time, as of May 8,
2022.
