Ethereum DAPP
Ethereum is a new and open blockchain platform, which allows anyone to build and use decentralized applications running through blockchain technology in the platform. Like bitcoin, Ethereum is neither controlled nor owned by anyone - it's an open source project created by many people around the world
Different from bitcoin protocol, Ethereum is very flexible and adaptable. It's very easy to create new applications on the Ethereum platform. Anyone can use the applications on the platform safely
Ethereum is a programmable blockchain. It does not give users a series of preset operations (such as bitcoin trading), but allows users to create complex operations according to their own wishes. In this way, it can be used as a platform for many types of decentralized blockchain applications, including but not limited to cryptocurrency
in a narrow sense, Ethereum refers to a series of protocols that define a decentralized application platform. The core of Ethereum is Ethereum virtual machine (EVM), which can encode any complex algorithm. In computer science terminology, Ethereum is "Turing complete.". Developers can use the existing JavaScript and python as the model of other friendly programming languages to create applications running on the Ethereum simulator
like other blockchains, Ethereum also has a peer-to-peer network protocol. Ethereum blockchain database is maintained and updated by many nodes connected to the network. Each network node runs the Ethereum simulator and executes the same instructions. Therefore, people sometimes call Ethereum "world computer"
this massive parallel operation throughout the Ethernet network is not to make the operation more efficient. In fact, this process makes computing on Ethereum slower and more expensive than on traditional computers. However, each Ethereum node runs Ethereum virtual machine in order to maintain the consistency of the whole blockchain. The consistency of decentralization makes Ethereum have high fault tolerance, zero downtime, and can keep the data stored on the blockchain unchanged and anti censorship
Ethereum platform has no characteristics and value. Like programming languages, it's up to entrepreneurs and developers to decide what to use. However, it is clear that some application types benefit more from the functions of Ethereum than others. Ethereum is especially suitable for those applications that automatically interact directly between points or promote group coordination activities across networks
for example, coordinate the application of point-to-point market, or the automation of complex financial contracts. Bitcoin enables indivials to exchange money without the help of financial institutions, banks or governments. The impact of Ethereum may be more profound
in theory, any complex financial activities or transactions can be automatically and reliably carried out on Ethereum with coding. In addition to financial applications, any application scenario with high requirements for trust, security and persistence, such as asset registration, voting, management and Internet of things, will be affected by Ethereum platform on a large scale
1. Different network architectures:
decentralized application (DAPP) runs on the distributed network, the information of participants is protected (or anonymous), and the decentralized operation is carried out through different people in the network nodes. Distributed network is made up of node computers which are distributed in different places and have multiple terminals. When any line in the network fails, the communication can be completed through other links, which has high reliability
traditional app needs services provided by third-party service providers, and can achieve wireless network access through mobile communication network, which belongs to the centralized network architecture mode
2. Different from open source:
DAPP applications must be open source. Most of the tokens issued by DAPP run independently rather than controlled by an entity. All data and records must be encrypted and stored on a public and decentralized blockchain
traditional app software, games, navigation and other applications are generally provided by third-party service providers, which should solve the problems of right protection and economic interests, and their programs are not open source
extended data
in 2018, a large number of new DAPP projects were launched. According to the statistics, there are about two or three thousand dapps in the whole network. According to the DAPP survey of fluence labs, 72% of DAPP projects were launched in 2018. This means that in the past year, the number of dapps in the whole network has more than tripled
of all dapps, more than 80% are developed on Ethereum, about 20% on EOS and less than 10% on Tron. It is worth noting that about 10% of the projects are developed on multiple main chains at the same time, while the number of dapps developed on other main chains is relatively rare
there are about ten projects based on gxchain, mainly small applications in block city
DAPP is the abbreviation of Chinese distributed app for decentralized application
a DAPP has background code running in a distributed peer-to-peer network. The background code of traditional app is running on the centralized server
the front-end code of a DAPP can be developed by any language, just like the traditional app. In addition, DAPP's front-end code can be hosted in distributed storage services, such as swarm or IPFs
If an application = front end + back end, because Ethereum contract is composed of code running in Ethereum distributed point-to-point network, distributed application = front end + contract
the picture shows a DAPP architecture:
app we all know that it is a client application, which is the abbreviation of application. DAPP is d + app, and D is the first letter of English word decentralization. Chinese word translation is decentralization, that is DAPP is decentralized application. This is to understand the concept literally. To form a clear, accurate and necessary concept in the brain, we need to understand DAPP in depth
compared with app, the biggest difference between them is centralization and decentralization. App needs money first, so it needs financing first; Then there will be more people, so we will develop and operate after recruiting all the people. DAPP is the proct of inheriting traditional app and combining the characteristics of blockchain, which is more like crowdfunding mode, sharing mode and decentralization mode

DAPP can run on a centralized server that can interact with Ethereum nodes, or on any Ethereum node. Different from ordinary websites, DAPP can't run on ordinary servers. They need to submit transactions to the blockchain and read important data from the blockchain instead of the centralized database.
