"dApps" or whatever they're called are a ghost town. None currently exist that are truly decentralized or have a value greater than traditional applications.

Decentralization is also possible and functions better with tokens (e.g. Bittorrent).

There’s a pretty clear logical contradiction in claiming definitively that no protocols are actually decentralized or work better than their centralized counterparts in crypto world while also signaling that you’re so unfamiliar with it that you barely know what a dApp is.
I know what a dApp is and have built one on Ethereum. I don't know what the new fad for describing the benefit of crypto is.

People only talk about DeFi now, and dApps may have rebranded as Web3.
