Although still a long way behind any leading centralised application, 2019 saw the entire decentralised app<\/a> ecosystem expand. There are numerous different networks that developers can build these so-called Dapps on but three have emerged as by far the most popular: Ethereum, Tron, and EOS.<\/p>\n

As the longest running smart contract network, Ethereum continues to hold number one spot in terms of both number of active applications and volume of transactions associated with Dapps. However, Tron is proving increasingly popular with developers and, for the first time ever, actually just surpassed EOS in terms of the number of active applications on the network.<\/p>\n

Did Technical Troubles Cause EOS to Slip Behind Tron?<\/h2>\n

With a total of 637 active Dapps now supported, Tron has overtaken fellow smart contract platform EOS for the first time ever. The latter network currently hosts 633 active Dapps.<\/p>\n

Last year saw a total of 579 new applications launched on Tron. Meanwhile, developers working with the EOS network created a total of 408 new applications.<\/p>\n

The figures come from a review of the decentralised application ecosystem recently published<\/a> by Dapp Review<\/em>. The dominance of both “high risk” and casino applications launched on the Tron blockchain<\/a> over the last 12 months prompted the article’s authors to nickname the network “Las Vegas on the blockchain”. The lion’s share of Tron’s $4.4 billion total transaction value reportedly came from decentralised casino applications.<\/p>\n

According to @dapp_review<\/a>, the total number of #TRON<\/a> #Dapps<\/a> reached 669 on Jan 07, 2020. It has surpassed the number of #EOS<\/a> Dapps(668) for the first time. #TRON<\/a> ecosystem is growing at a steady pace, we welcome more users and developers to join us. #TRX<\/a> $TRX<\/a> pic.twitter.com\/rwOiXbOZSd<\/a><\/p>\n
