DappRadar is a global application store tailored to the needs of stakeholders of the decentralized finance (DeFi) space.

The platform allows the tracking, analyzing, and discovery of decentralized applications (DApps), non-fungible tokens (NFTs) collections, DeFi projects, tokens, token swaps, and airdrops, among others.

Dragos Dunica and Skirmantas Januškas founded DappRadar in 2018. They serve as the company's Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Chief Data Officer (CDO).

As of 15 January, 2023, the platform that tags itself as actionable, multichain, and peerless provides coverage to the widest selection of applications in Web3 and Metaverse, tracking 13,187 DApps, 16,053 NFT collections, and 48 portfolios. Through this platform, developers, traders, and investors can view digital collectibles, and trending DApps, analyze the periodical volumes of certain applications and NFTs, and discover new blockchain technologies with promising innovations. The data tracking portal sees more than one million monthly users and employs 71 people.

DappRadar supports many blockchains

Despite the decentralized nature of the crypto industry, finding information for novices or beginners can be extremely difficult.

DappRadar has rectified this problem by providing relevant data on more than 50 blockchains. Some blockchains being tracked include Ethereum, TRON, BNB Chain, Flow, Avalanche, Tezos, EOS, Polygon, IoTeX, Solana, Algorand, Cronos, Ronin, Immutable X, Celo, Fantom, and WAX.

In September 2022, DappRadar announced the tracking of Cardano DApps. This came on the back of a Vasil Hard Fork upgrade which enhanced Cardano's transaction speed. Aside from this, the upgrade triggered DApp development capacity, general usability, and security.

Some of the most popular blockchain DApps tracked by DappRadar include Splinterlands, Alien Worlds, PancakeSwap, Hooked, Planet IX, Farmers World, AtomicAssets, decentralized exchanges Uniswap V3 and V2, NFT marketplaces (OpenSea, X2Y2, and Magic Eden), Meta Apes, 1inch Network, ApeSwap, ApeCoin Staking, Axie Infinity, MetaMask Swap, QuickSwap, and NFT collection NFL ALL DAY.

DappRadar provides periodical industry reports

To keep users of the platform and stakeholders of DeFi up-to-speed with developments in the industry, DappRadar provides quarterly reports about the state of the industry. The information covered mostly includes NFT trading volume, total transactions within a period, total value locked (TVL) in decentralized applications, and the growing use of airdrops as a marketing tool to draw millions of people to a particular project.

In a recent report, it shed light on Blur, one of the DApps based on Ethereum, which has generated more than $300 million in all-time sales in just three months. In the process, it has jumped into the top ten NFT marketplaces in the world.

The project is supported by a cryptocurrency

Like many projects in the industry today, DappRadar is supported by a cryptocurrency called RADAR. The coin was launched in December 2021 to support the platform’s quest of becoming a powerhouse in the shift from Web2 to new heights in the Web3 and Metaverse.

RADAR has many uses, such as serving as a governance token for holders who will contribute to making decisions about the platform.

RADAR can also be staked for passive income. Staking is where a significant number of a coin, in this case, RADAR, is locked up to help a Proof-of-Stake (PoS) blockchain validate transactions.

As of 15 January, 2023, more than 570 million RADARs are circulating in the market from a total and maximum supply of ten billion. RADAR reached an all-time high price of $0.0604 on 15 December, 2021 and tested an all-time low price of $0.004091 on 18 June, 2022.

The coin is supported by nine exchanges (centralized and decentralized). They are Bilaxy, MEXC Global, BKEX, CoinW, Uniswap V3, DigiFinex, Huobi Global, SushiSwap, and Crypto.com.

Conclusion: Should I use DappRadar?

Millions of people now regard this platform as the best as it provides an all-in-one system due to the quality of its application programming interface (API). With this platform, you can find all the essential information about the emerging sector in one place, which can help you make decisions about decentralized exchanges, lending, yield aggregation, and NFT investing.
