prerequisite before reading about dapp (decentralized application) it is important for the user to be knowledgable about the functionality and use case of blockchain technology please make sure to familiarize yourself with the previous content about blockchain basics docid\ edcdutzh2zjivzsgnsm4g introduction to dapps what is a dapp on the blockchain, decentralized applications (dapps) serve as a conduit between users and the privacy of their personal data by using smart contracts to solve issues like completing transactions between two participants without the need for a central authority, dapps are proving to be beneficial inside the blockchain ecosystem these dapps exist and operate on a peer to peer (p2p) network of computers rather than a single computer however, dapps also exist outside of the jurisdiction and control of a single authority the ethereum platform is frequently used to create dapps, which can be used for a range of functions like gaming, finance, and social networking caduceus's new enhanced blockchain has greater functionality, computing power, consensus and edge rendering mechanisms allowing users to create a a powerful and scalable dapp the materials listed in the developers docid\ okkpz6mfw27jq brkvtbo section can help you get up to speed on the tools needed to construct, debug, and deploy decentralized apps (dapps) to the caduceus network deploy your own d'app see the tutorials docid\ fnw0mlfkgg6u5t8bjt096 section for more information advantages of dapp development open source transparent data data can be retrieved cost reduction un blockable lower downtime simple to develop disadvantages of dapp development complex maintenance and updates slow speed vulnerability to hacking lack of users use case of dapp development use case of dapp development there are multiple use cases of developing dapps most current digital applications can be recreated/replicated to run on the blockchain in a decentralised manner a typical web application, like uber or twitter, runs on a server fully managed and owned by them allowing the company complete control over the app and how it functions in some cases it makes sense remove this trust requirement and have a dapp that runs directly on the blockchain without external influence dapps can operate on a blockchain network or a peer to peer network in a p2p network, where numerous users are simultaneously consuming content, feeding or seeding content, or performing both tasks, examples of applications include bittorrent, tor, and popcorn time in the context of cryptocurrencies, dapps operate on a blockchain network in a public, open source, decentralized environment and are unaffected by any single authority's control or interference for instance, a caduceus dapp could be a replica of twitter which has been developed for the blockchain, any users will be allowed to publish messages and content, but once this transaction of data and information has been processed, the information gets stored on the blockchain making it transparent and secure for anyone to see no one including the dapp creator or the blockchain developers can delete or alter the message this ensures the fair and reliable sharing of data further reading to know more about the caduceus dapps that are currently in the chain ecosystem you can read more caduceus dapps docid 2f60 wftycgmplz6lht5t
