For a fully decentralized app you need to store every sensitive data in the blockchain. At the moment the shortest block-times are at 10 seconds. For every writing operation you will need to put it in the blockchain. And thats very slow...
It simply doesn't work yet, if you want to run really heavy applications... that will take its time...
Topic: Which coins are best suited for decentralized apps? (Read 590 times)
I'm having trouble understanding... You're looking for a coin that's suited for decentralized apps that doesn't need to link to its blockchain? Why does a coin need to be involved at all then? Without its blockchain, a coin is nothing
Qora: in-client exchange - right now you can exchange qora with burst with no middle man and most coins can add this feature to help build the first true decentralized exchange, host anonymous web sites and blogs on the blockchain, Automated Transactions and smart contracts. The dev's are still working on new features.
As far as I know currently NXT and its derivates are the most suitable for such applications. Basically everything with a proper plugin system can be good.
nem.. its architecture consists of NCC(client) and NIS(server). this split design is revolutionary. for example, i can run the ncc part of nem locally on a computer (and soon on mobile) and connect to a remote instance of NIS (even if its a malicious persons nis) and interact with the blockchain securely and also harvest on that nis and any rewards will automatically be forwarded to my account by use of delegated harvesting. the split architecture of nem is the first of its kind and allows for all sorts of innovations moving forward.

NEM was purposely designed to support things just like this. NEM's wallet is completely separated from its server and the wallet is open source, so a person can go into NEM, redo the wallet, build the app to run on the NEM network and nobody would even know. NEM's wallet is also light enough to run on a iOS or Android so each app in itself has access to the network and the a really great part, all the keys and important signings of transactions all happen locally. At no point, even if you connected to a malicious node that was purposely trying to steal your money in a sneaky way could that be possible. Those nodes simply don't have access, but the wallets have lots of access to lots of nodes.
Nxt seems to be your best bet at the moment as they call it "plugins". nxtbubble.com is going to be one of the plugins within the wallet.
So it's NXT's plugin system that makes it the best choice for this?
Are there any NXT plugins besides NXTBubble?
What sort of limitations does the plugin system have?
Spreadcoin is about to start its third round of "service node" testing. Service nodes will have the ability to accept plugins to provide decentralised P2P applications and services.
Which coins are best suited as a framework for totally decentralized apps and why? Not centralized apps that communicate with a blockchain but completely decentralized apps.
The upcoming Goldcoin client will have a NXT style plugin system and be java based. Multi-coin support out of the box.

^ He's right. If you want to tinker and create something, NXT is your best bet.

I guess even ethereum will allow only a marginal use if its finally out.
We are still in the beginning. It will be like a 14.4 Modem downloading a movie, if you want to run too complex things on it.
