Posted By : Anirudh Bhardwaj | 13-Jul-2016

We are living in an age of digitization where all the day-to-day activities can be done on your finger tips at blistering speeds. There’s no doubt that digitization of technology has brought a new financial revolution with the emergence of Digital Cash, Digital Property and Digital Assets. Perhaps, the greatest endowment of digitization is Blockchain Technology which serves as a backbone to all the Decentralized Systems.

 

Nevertheless, the aptness of Blockchain is hard to predict. It possesses immense potential and it can be effectively used beyond the financial sector as well. As a matter of fact, Blockchain Technology is being used in a wide range of applications like eVoting, Digital Identity, Land Registry and many others. One such implication of Blockchain Technology lies in the development of Decentralized Apps or simply DAPPs. Decentralization has its own perks and this transpiring technology has been widely appreciated by the masses for its uniqueness and innovative approach. The surging popularity of Decentralized Systems paved new ways for the emergence of DAPPs. Over the years, many DAPPs have been developed and are available on popular mobile platforms like android and iOS and many are yet to arrive. So, let’s have a look at the three exciting decentralized apps that are all set to hit the market very soon.  


 

EtherTweet - Decentralized Microblogging

EtherTweet is a decentralized micro-blogging service just like twitter. It is built on top of the Ethereum Blockchain and it boasts a twitter like functionality that allows the users to tweet instant posts and messages of up to 160 characters.

 

The prototype for EtherTweet has been revealed and can be seen on github. The original EtherTweet interface is yet in development stage and it is soon going to hit the market.

 

What makes it different from other micro-blogging platforms is its Decentralized nature owing to which there will be no central system monitoring or managing the online content. It implies that once a person posts a message, it will remain on the web forever and no one can delete that message apart from the publisher himself.


 

Vevue - Make Videos, Earn Bitcoins

Vevue proffers a unique functionality to the users, allowing them to earn bitcoins by making and sharing 30 seconds videos using their smartphones. The Vevue users receive several requests from the worldwide community asking them to shoot and upload small videos of different places, bars, restaurants, hotels and remote locations. The users are in turn rewarded with bitcoins and Vevue equity tokens.

 

All the Vevue videos will be stored on a tamper-proof ledger called Blockchain which means they can never be altered or deleted by any third party. The Vevue project is in Beta stage right now and is going to be live very soon.


 

WeiFund For Decentralized Crowdfunding

WeiFund is yet another Ethereum based DAPP that provides a crowdfunding platform using Web 3.0 enabled technology. It provides an easy way to raise funds for your business without any third party intervention. All the WeiFund data will be stored on the local Ethereum blockchain and the funds raised through WeiFund will be accountable in the digital token of Ethereum called Ether.
