最新报道:Decentralized applications (DApps) are open-source software programs that run on blockchain networks instead of centralized servers, eliminating single points of failure. Unlike traditional apps controlled by companies, DApps operate autonomously using smart contracts and store data across distributed nodes. Key features include transparency (all transactions are publicly verifiable), censorship resistance (no central authority can shut them down), and native cryptocurrency integration for payments and governance. Popular examples span DeFi platforms like Uniswap, gaming apps like Axie Infinity, and social networks like Steemit. While offering greater user control, DApps currently face scalability challenges and complex user interfaces compared to mainstream applications.
