dApps are a type of application that is based on a decentralized network because the nodes that interact with the application are used as several servers instead of a central one.<\/p>
DApps is the acronym for Decentralized Applications. Decentralized networks work with a network of computers in which users have full control over the operation of the network. <\/p>
DApps allow people to access different services securely without worrying about being tracked in any way. These applications can use as nodes computers, and smartphones, or can even be accessible from the web.<\/p>

To taste what a dApp looks like, we must think of an ordinary application, in this category we have applications such as YouTube, Facebook, Twitter, and even Instagram. In all these services there is a network of central servers. This allows companies to decide what can be seen or not in these applications according to them to give it more “security” by taking neutrality.<\/p>
The dApp concept is nothing new because there have been several over time, but the most popular applications have been BitTorrent and DC++, both with peer-to-peer systems to share files without worrying about censorship because there is no way to track the server. <\/p>
However, the quintessential dApp that describes exactly how they work on a blockchain is Bitcoin because how its users and structure assign perfectly describes the function of dApps.<\/p>
