Get started

To try a dapp, you'll need a and some ETH. A wallet will allow you to connect, or log in. And you'll need ETH to pay any.

1. Get some ETH

Dapp actions cost a transaction fee

2. Set up a wallet

A wallet is your “login” for a dapp

3. Ready?

A lot of dapps are still experimental, testing the possibilities of decentralized networks. But there have been some successful early movers in the technology, financial, gaming and collectibles categories.

Decentralized finance

These are applications that focus on building out financial services using cryptocurrencies. They offer the likes of lending, borrowing, earning interest, and private payments – no personal data required.

Always do your own research

Ethereum is a new technology and most applications are new. Before depositing any large quantities of money, make sure you understand the risks.

Lending and borrowing

Exchanges

Demand aggregators

Bridges

Investment funds

Portfolio management

Insurance

Payments

Crowdfunding

Derivatives

Liquid staking

Prediction markets

The magic behind decentralized finance

What is it about Ethereum that allows decentralized finance applications to thrive?

Open access

Financial services running on Ethereum have no sign up requirements. If you have funds and an internet connection, you’re good to go.

A new token economy

There’s a whole world of tokens that you can interact with across these financial products. People are building new tokens on top of Ethereum all the time.

Stablecoins

Teams have built – a less volatile cryptocurrency. These allow you to experiment and use crypto without the risk and uncertainty.

Interconnected financial services

Financial products in the Ethereum space are all modular and compatible with one another. New configurations of these modules are hitting the market all the time, increasing what you can do with your crypto.

The magic behind dapps

Dapps might feel like regular apps. But behind the scenes they have some special qualities because they inherit all of Ethereum’s superpowers. Here's what makes dapps different from apps.

What makes Ethereum great?

No owners

Once deployed to Ethereum, dapp code can’t be taken down. And anyone can use the dapp’s features. Even if the team behind the dapp disbanded you could still use it. Once on Ethereum, it stays there.

Free from censorship

Built-in payments

Plug and play

One anonymous login

Backed by cryptography

No down time

How dapps work

Dapps have their backend code (smart contracts) running on a decentralized network and not a centralized server. They use the Ethereum for data storage and smart contracts for their app logic.

A smart contract is like a set of rules that live onchain for all to see and run exactly according to those rules. Imagine a vending machine: if you supply it with enough funds and the right selection, you'll get the item you want. And like vending machines, smart contracts can hold funds much like your Ethereum account. This allows code to mediate agreements and transactions.

Once dapps are deployed on the Ethereum network you can't change them. Dapps can be decentralized because they are controlled by the logic written into the contract, not an individual or a company.
