Abstract: 
Artificial intelligence (AI) and blockchain technology, in conjunction with Financial Technology (Fintech), are playing an increasingly significant role in shaping global Energy Trading trends. The combined use of blockchain, AI, and Fintech introduces innovative features that have the potential to improve the efficiency and performance of current systems. This study provides insights into the key features of the intersection of AI, blockchain, and Fintech, such as data security, encryption, sharing, efficiency, collective decision-making, decentralized intelligent systems, transparency, automated decision systems, and financial applications. By analyzing literature from major digital databases, this technological convergence was constructed via the emerging era, convergence era and application era. In the convergence era, features were categorized into data manipulation, regulations, applicability to legacy systems, compatibility and hardware issues. The application era explores the impact of this technology fusion in areas like cybersecurity, finance, energy, Internet of Things applications, and smart cities. This comprehensive analysis helps outline the timeline of AI, blockchain, and Fintech convergence and highlights the unique characteristics of their integration. The paper concludes by addressing the current challenges and how it is increasing efficiency, transparency and automation of AI, blockchain, and Fintech in energy trading and also in the sector of energy trading i.e. electricity, gas, oil and non renewable energies. AI enables predictive analytics and automation, blockchain ensures secure and transparent transactions, and FinTech facilitates seamless financial transactions and risk management in energy trading. The convergence revolutionizes energy trading.
