What Are Dapps? Blockchain Based Decentralized Applications

#####

 <h3>What are Dapps?</h3><p>Imagine having your car working away, transporting passengers while you’re at work. Imagine having your computer utilizing its spare capacity to serve businesses and people across the globe. Imagine being paid for browsing the web and taking ownership of your, arguably invaluable, attention. Imagine a world like that. That world is not far away.</p><p>A paradigm shift in the way we view software models is approaching. When <a href="https://blockgeeks.com/guides/what-is-bitcoin-a-step-by-step-guide/">Bitcoin</a>, the first<a href="https://blockgeeks.com/guides/what-is-cryptocurrency/"> cryptocurrency</a>, made us reassess our definition of <a href="http://www.investopedia.com/terms/s/storeofvalue.asp">Store of Value (SoV)</a>, it also revealed a sneak peek of the future: a world running on decentralized applications (Dapps). These distributed, resilient, transparent and incentivized applications will prove themselves to the world by remapping the technological landscape.</p><p>Want to learn about Dapps in greater detail?
