ETH is a solution to a problem which doesn't exist.

dApps need a centralized entity which is going to be a bridge between the reality and the dApps and if you need a centralized entity, why the fuck we need dApps in the first place?

That's why Eth is a pump&dump shitcoin. Nothing more.

In some decentralized games apps, you can sell your premium item ( the item you buy from developer ) to other users using blockchain.
You won't be able to do this in the centralized game, usually the game developers will prohibit you to sell premium items to other users, thus you cannot sell it back.
And because using decentralized apps, users can freely trading their items to other users without 3rd party or developer.
This is only one of the advantages if we using decentralized app.

I bet it's due to a speed and scalability issue. Ethereum is known for that esp with apps that require a lot of transactions. dApps need a platform that can handle these sorts of things on side chains and sharding. I know MOAC has a great use case for dapps. Worth checking them out.

There are still some great dapps that are very popular among the community. If you are speaking about exchanges, just look at IDEX. It is the best decentralised exchange and people are switching to a decentralised trading more and more often.

I don't agree with you, it seems like "no one uses Dapps" it's a wrong statement, it's just not yet fully giving Dapps full potential. At the moment we are still adapting is not it? most Dapps previously were only gambling and dex So i think people are just too bored, that's all. Some potential Dapps have started to appear like MCH, etc. So for now it may be true that Dapps are less attractive, but I'm sure for the next few periods Dapps will start to be in demand and i'm sure statements in the article are False. Only my opinion

Most dapps are platform based which require lots of interactions between active users which the crypto is currently lacking.. big apps like existing social media did alot to attract users with a good purpose. While existing dapps target a niche or over ambitious targets marketing is super necessary no matter how good your dapps is

The fact that most of these so called decentralized applications have no real world usage means that and most of them are just products of ill advice and overhyped projects where millions of dollars have been raised to fund tge development of applications that could be done by a total noob developer.
Dapps need to first start at the basics before they can change the world for good.

Perhaps its because people just make speculation on the price and making quick profits. Not many people using Dapps because the token not used in real world and i think it could change in the future

Wow, I never knew that dapps don't have any users, how sure are you about this statistics because my friend always tell me that dapp has more users daily than users of bitcoin, though I doubted him but he showed me some website that made me believe.

I personally is not a fan of dapps and I don't use anyone because most of the dapps created are not user friendly and no one will want to make use of them, I rather make use of bitcoin than dapps no offense but I don't really like creating or using dapps.

I think there are useful dapps but I think everyone is frustrated with platforms in which they are located on. I think there are a couple newer platforms that will impress the masses when it comes to creating unique and scalable dapps. MOAC is using their dual layer technology to help with scalability on an enterprise level.

This statistic only goes to prove that the present state of the cryptocurrency market is in very big bubble with no real life applications to the vast majority of the projects being created as well as their decentralized applications who have no use as at the moment.

In the foreseeable future they could be no usage for this applications but at the moment this is failing and it is because most of them are just 2 theoretical and have no real practical advantage

In my opinion, the main problems of all those Dapps are that most of them do not offer anything new, all the game-based or gambling Dapps are not different from any other game and gambling platform. And in this case, since dapps is new, I don't think use will move to dapps if they are not offered anything new. For the decentralized exchange, well, it might be true, that they are more transparent and secure since we never risk our asset to a third party, but most of the Decentralized Exchanges are lack of features and unstable.

Don't get me wrong, I don't hate ethereum or any decentralized platform. I use DEX and play some Blockchain based games, and the statement above is very objective. Based on my experience as a user.

Let me give another opinion, i think it is because people don't want to use it yet. It doesn't matter how great your apps but if people don't want to use it, it's useless. DApps will be a favor to anyone if people start thinking they need it for daily usage.

everything will return to the application, if it feels easy and good, the user will increase.

I regularly read the news and know that only 10% of Dapps are used on the ETH network. Perhaps it was only created to display instead of used and users are only interested in prices instead of products created.

As I said before, many of the dApps are just not good enough to convince users to abandon their centralized apps.

Dapps came out to be an attractive selling point for investors but its amazing that it has become almost useless. The use cases of these Dapps are very obscure and its no wonder people don't have interests in it. Also the teams behind it are not making enough effort to market it. Can't blame them much though. The dip must have reduced their capital which was meant to be spent on its publicity

There are enough dApps that are being used every day. I personally use dApps daily on the Steem blockchain, together with thousands of people.
Just check the statistics on Steemapps and you'll see that the top dApps have thousands of daily transactions.

Steem dApps on Steemapps.com

Steem Monsters is still widely popular, since the beginning I've earned around $2000, just by playing and trading cards.
Now I'm also on DrugWars and I see hundreds of active players.

The best part is that gambling dapps are in the minority on Steem, so there are more interesting dApps being developed than just simple dice games.

I think dApps itself need to develop deeper until it can be implemented for real life. So far, I don't see the project can reach the function to be used in real life or maybe I am wrong. Maybe the project needs to observe more about dApps so they can know what the benefits of dApps for investor and the user is. The projects need to continue if they want to reach the real goals so users can use dApps in the future and the project itself can get success too.

actually they are being used but the thing is the only usage so far in the past couple of years that they have been introduced has been only 1 thing: to create ICO tokens.
and that means they are all useless shitcoins and the only way anybody uses these tokens is to and from exchanges so that they can participate in the trading "game" and test their luck in this game so that maybe they can make some profit. otherwise there is no usage for any of them.

The reason is: people are losing hope with crypto. They might think that when they use the dapp and make an investment of $100 of using it. The value might drop to 80% again losing the huge value from its original investment.

Well, if the commodity is really feasible to the masses then it should have plenty of users and will attract more people to invest but perhaps DAPPS is also affected by the bearish market that is why there is few or no users for now. Let's wait for the bullish market to see if DAPPS is really doable.

The reason why a lot of people are not using this decentralized applications is simply because a lot of them are far off from the solution they aim to provide to the existing problems and also because a lot of them do not relate to the lame man.
In reality the applications that get most adoption and users are the applications that relates to our daily lives like music picture social networks and the likes. so cryptocurrencies need to first disrupt this market before they can aim to get adoption on the and decentralized applications for other purposes.

Cryptocurrency market is still in the embrion state compared to it's age / foundation, so this huge number of Dapps i something predictable.

What will happen next is that only the one that really solve life issues will survive & have people adopt them in real life, what you're seeing right now is just people wanna get rich using the HYPE of some projects only because they have team " still working " on this or that Dapp, that's all, sad but true.

Even the mains blockchains you see nowadays, only the ones that solves real life issue will survive too, but this will be shown years to come for sure, i would say 10+ years from now. only REAL LIFE SAVIERs Cryptos / blockchains will survive.

I see that the numbers are from Dappradar which is a trusted source but is it 100% accurate are they tracking the right contract? because some dApps use multiple contracts.

That is because they have sold the idea of use cases to the investors - NOT the actual users.
Even Bitcoin to this day has not found a proper mainstream daily use, some would argue that it has acquired cult status as an investment medium or store of value but that's just what most of us biased towards cryptos would like to believe. Truth is, most people still view it as a darkweb / criminal / silk road thing.

I just get doubts about how accurate these data are. Overall these numbers are indicating that dapps are not yet favorites to common people because people are simply busy with some other social media whereas only technical people are making few transactions on these platforms, in a wild guess. Yesterday, ethereum's one of competitor Tron had a big day as they are attracting new investors through some long term air drop plans. So, not sure about where will be the future of ethereum.

Due to unlimited supply of ethereum, I never had big opinions about the future of ethereum and now it seems its dapps also not yet convincing people. So, investor may return back to bitcoin or in come cases to litecoin, it seems as they are having consistent investors all the times as per the history.

Because they are all useless. dapps looks overrated in my opinion dude. Most of them don't even know what means of decentralized is. They are not giving the common usage that can bring demand.That's why they have not even gotten any a users.
