Protocols top list

dApps, short for decentralized applications, are apps that work on blockchain networks without a central authority. They let you securely interact, trade, or play directly with others, giving you full control over your data and transactions. You’ll find dApps in areas like finance (DeFi), gaming, and online marketplaces.

TVL (Total Value Locked) represents the total dollar value of assets that users have deposited in a DeFi protocol or dApp. It includes funds in various pools, lending platforms, and liquidity markets. Essentially, TVL gives a good sense of how much trust and activity the platform has, showing how popular and engaged the community is with that specific protocol.
