DApps, or decentralized apps, do not have a fully clear definition yet as they are still so new. DApps require a Ethereum browser such as MetaMask, Toshi or Status to run.
DApps are a new breed of apps: they interlaced with the blockchain. They are decentralized, and they are not controlled by one single person. 2017 saw lots of money funneling into the blockchain space, and in 2018 we are beginning to see decentralized results.
Ethereum’s potential as a platform for building Ethereum Dapps has also fueled a rush in startups raising money via ICOs. In fact, several startups have already raised hundreds of millions of dollars to support the development of their Dapps on the Ethereum blockchain. One example, Bancor, managed to raise approximately $153 million in ether, the digital currency of the Ethereum Blockchain network, during its ICO in June 2017.
