Please explain What is DApps and mention 3 DApps which you have already used or may use in future as per your interest?

DApp stands for decentralized application which means that it does not reside on one platform like a centralized application (e.g., Facebook) but instead exists across many different platforms (e.g., Ethereum).

What is the difference between decentralized applications (DApps) and blockchain applications?

Centralized applications (applications hosted on one platform like Google Docs, Amazon S3, Dropbox) do not exist without the help of middlemen. This means that central platforms can change their terms of services or arbitrarily shut down their centralized applications at any time. There is also no assurance that the data stored on centralized applications is secure. On the other hand, decentralized applications (DApps) are built using open source software like Ethereum and do not rely on third-party middlemen like Amazon or Google. Decentralized applications are copies of themselves that exist across many different computers all over the world. For example, a typical decentralized application would have a copy of the application on every computer in the Ethereum network.

Blockchain applications are similar to traditional applications in that they run directly on a blockchain. In this case, blockchain applications do not need to use an intermediary for their computing needs because they can use the computing resources from the blockchain directly. Blockchain applications also cannot be shut down without shutting down the entire blockchain.

My 3 most favorite DApps are:

1. MetaMask :

MetaMask is a bridge that allows you to visit the distributed web of tomorrow in your browser today.
Source It allows users to run Ethereum dApps right in their browser without running a full Ethereum node.

2. CryptoKitties: This game allows you to collect and breed digital cats.

Each cat is unique and one-of-a-kind and 100% owned by you; it cannot be forged, taken away, or destroyed.

3. 0x: 0x protocol is an open, permission less protocol allowing for ERC20 tokens to be traded on the Ethereum blockchain.

Your effort is good. But we are not allowed to include someone's words in our content without mentioning proper sources. That's what you learned in your Achievement 3 task which is related to Content Etiquette
