What is a dApp?

Last update - December 20, 2023

A decentralized application, commonly known as a dApp, is a software application that operates on a decentralized network, such as a blockchain.

While traditional apps are usually hosted on centralized servers and controlled by a single entity, dApps use the principles of decentralization to provide transparency, security, and autonomy to users.
