Dapps - Decentralizovane aplikacije

Ethereum-powered tools and services

Dapps are a growing movement of applications that use Ethereum to disrupt business models or invent new ones.

Get started

To try a dapp, you'll need a

wallet
and some ETH. A wallet will allow you to connect, or log in. And you'll need ETH to pay any
transaction fees
.

Explore dapps

A lot of dapps are still experimental, testing the possibilties of decentralized networks. But there have been some successful early movers in the technology, financial, gaming and collectibles categories.

Decentralized gaming 🎮

These are applications that focus on the creation of virtual worlds and battling other players using collectibles that hold real-world value.

Always do your own research

Ethereum is a new technology and most applications are new. Before depositing any large quantities of money, make sure you understand the risks.

The magic ✨ behind decentralized gaming

What is it about Ethereum that allows decentralized gaming to thrive?

⚔️

Game items double as tokens

Whether it's virtual land or trading cards, your items are tradeable on collectibles markets. Your in-game items have real-world value.

🏰

Your saves are safe

You own your items, and in some cases your progress, not game companies. So you won't lose anything if the company behind the game is attacked, suffers a server malfunction, or disbands.

🤝

Provable fairness

In the same way Ethereum payments are available to anyone to verify, games can use this quality to ensure fairness. In theory, everything is verifiable from the number of critical hits to the size of an opponent's war chest.

The magic behind dapps

Dapps might feel like regular apps. But behind the scenes they have some special qualities because they inherit all of Ethereum’s superpowers. Here's what makes dapps different from apps.

What makes Ethereum great?

No owners

Once deployed to Ethereum, dapp code can’t be taken down. And anyone can use the dapp’s features. Even if the team behind the dapp disbanded you could still use it. Once on Ethereum, it stays there.

How dapps work

Dapps have their backend code (smart contracts) running on a decentralized network and not a centralized server. They use the Ethereum

blockchain
for data storage and smart contracts for their app logic.

A smart contract is like a set of rules that live on-chain for all to see and run exactly according to those rules. Imagine a vending machine: if you supply it with enough funds and the right selection, you'll get the item you want. And like vending machines, smart contracts can hold funds much like your Ethereum account. This allows code to mediate agreements and transactions.

Once dapps are deployed on the Ethereum network you can't change them. Dapps can be decentralized because they are controlled by the logic written into the contract, not an individual or a company.
