A new report from Dapp.com is in the digital currency news, putting dApps in the spotlight with their increasing usage in 2018. According to the report, the number of dApps was constantly increasing and the most active dApp category across platforms was gaming, followed by betting.
Decentralized exchanges had the largest volume of users of dApps, where crypto trading was the first major killer use case for decentralized applications. However, the volume transacted on decentralized exchanges is still dwarfed by the volume at centralized ones.
Even though Ethereum had the most users (about 800,000) and the widest variety of dApps, the usage of Ethereum programs was less in terms of transactions than other platforms like the newcomer Tron (TRX).
As the dApp report showed:
“TRON is the most ambitious in the dapp field, with a $2 billion Project Genesis launched in the second half of the year. In addition, it spends $100 million on TronArcade to promote its dapp ecosystem.”
TRON (TRX) launched 97 decentralized applications in 2018, while its ecosystem and community have been growing at an alarming rate. This week, TRX was added to OKCoin, which is one of the largest US exchanges, in order to be traded against fiat, Bitcoin and Ethereum.
The report also showed that gambling accounted for $3 billion in transactions over the course of 2018 in dApps.
