Report: Tron Has Fastest Growing DApp User Base, Ethereum Still Developers' First Choice

Published on by Cointele | Published on

A report released on April 9 by DApp analytics website DApp.com reveals that Tron has the fastest growing DApp user base while Ethereum's DApp user base is shrinking.

On the Ethereum chain, there was a 4 percent decrease in the number of DApp users compared to last year.

About 72,422 old users are still using Ethereum-based DApps in 2019.

Decentralized Exchanges are responsible for more than half of the ETH DApp transaction volume, followed by gambling apps.

"It shows that Ethereum is still the No.1 choice for developers to build their dapp on. At the same time, we also have seen a trend in multi-chain developing, as many Ethereum dapps expand on multiple chains, such as Ethereum + EOS or Ethereum + Tron.".

The number of active DApp users on the Tron blockchain reportedly amounted to over 300,000, while on EOS around 260,000.

The main driver of growth in the number of Tron DApp users were purportedly gambling apps.

The report also points out that 95 percent of EOS DApps reported a transaction in the first quarter of the current year, as did over 80 percent of Tron and Steem based decentralized applications.

On the Ethereum chain, which beats the others when it comes to the number of apps it hosts, there were nearly 600 DApps which did not report a single transaction over the past three months.

As Cointelegraph reported earlier this week, Tron has revealed the expansion plan of its second layer DApp scalability solution, the Sun Network.
