Glossary/Decentralized Application (DApp)

Decentralized Application (DApp)

Applications that run on a decentralized network, rather than being controlled by a single authority or organization.

A dApp typically combines a normal web or mobile frontend with smart contracts on a blockchain backend. Users interact through a wallet rather than a username and password, and no single party can unilaterally change the rules.
