Why is the DAPP network named and praised by Block.one?
On this day, the Block.one #BuiltOnEOSIO column interviewed LiquidApps CEO Beni Hakak and published the article "Using LiquidApps to Extend Decentralized Applications".
BuiltOnEOSIO is a regularly updated column of Block.one, which mainly introduces some excellent projects to build innovative applications on EOSIO.
As a high-quality project on EOSIO, being able to accept the interview with #BuiltOnEOSIO represents the affirmation of LqiuidApps by EOSIO official Block.one, and also proves the community's recognition and support for LiquidApps' contribution to the EOS community.
In this interview, "the scalability of decentralized applications" became the key word.
To be recognized by EOS parent company Block.one, what kind of team is LiquidApps, and what efforts have we made in terms of the scalability of decentralized applications?
Let's review the exciting content of this interview.
01
➤ Can you introduce to us LiquidApps and DAPP network?
Beni Hakak:
In the rapid development stage of the two years 2017-2018, we have seen many projects in the entire ecosystem have worked very hard.
But the immaturity of the decentralized infrastructure has had a consequence: without good tools, no matter what the project team wants to do, they must develop it themselves and start from scratch.
This is costly and takes up most of the developer's energy, leaving them almost no time to focus on providing a valuable experience for the end user.
We are now 2020, and blockchain developers are still facing a severe shortage of key resources, such as storage and computing. They lack basic development tools for building scalable decentralized applications (dApps).
The fast-changing market causes network congestion and brings difficulties to users, especially DeFi users. This is enough to show the importance of scalable services.
The birth of the DAPP network is to provide developers with these tools.
From vRAM, which greatly reduces development costs, to powerful Oracle, and even the customized blockchain service LiquidChains... All these services can be easily accessed on the DAPP network as a single “plug and play” platform, thereby optimizing the speed and speed of decentralized development Affordability.
In addition, the DAPP network is the first general-purpose middleware that works across multiple blockchains. By connecting various chains, dApps can expand and expand their user base wherever Tier 1 traction appears or shifts.
02
➤ What inspired you to create LiquidApps?
Beni Hakak:
We firmly believe that blockchain technology has the potential to change the existing model of the financial system and the Internet.
We believe that good product users only need experience, and do not need to touch the logic and interaction behind the product. Likewise, developers should have experience in building dApps seamlessly.
Therefore, we are committed to solving these problems by providing developers with a one-stop service of key tools. This helps developers build practical dApps more conveniently.
The above is our original intention to build LiquidApps.
03
➤ Why did you decide to use blockchain technology, especially EOSIO?
Beni Hakak:
The greatest value of blockchain technology is that its decentralized nature eliminates the role of trust among network stakeholders.
We chose to use Block.one's EOSIO as the underlying technology because it is flexible and efficient, which provides enhanced scalability for EOSIO-based chains.
Like EOSIO, we also believe in the power of interoperability, and we are also attracted by EOSIO's vision:
Multiple EOSIO-based chains are connected together to form a powerful blockchain layer.
Now we can do it through LiquidX.

➤ What stage is LiquidApps currently in?
Beni Hakak:
The DAPP network was launched in February 2019 and has now developed into a vibrant community of developers, organizers and promoters.
On the first day of launch, the first service was launched on the DAPP network, a distributed memory solution called vRAM.

Now, the DAPP online community has matured and released 14 services. Some of them have remained stable, while others are in the advanced stages of testing and deployment.
05
➤ What challenges did you encounter in the development process and how did you overcome them?
Beni Hakak:
We must always pay attention to the long-term benefits and sustainability of short-term benefits. In addition, the DAPP network middleware layer also needs to solve some technical problems.
Fortunately, we have an excellent team that is creating ground-breaking technologies and a dedicated community who believe in the strategic vision we are doing.
We are applying for a patent for resource management, allowing reading and writing of data on the second-tier blockchain nodes, etc.
In addition, the global outbreak of COVID-19 has had a huge negative impact on the global experience. When we saw that our technology could be used to help fight the vaccine, we initiated a community project and used some resources to build CoVax.

The CoVax application is based on the dedicated LiquidChain created by LiquidApps, which allows users to donate processing power from their mobile phones or desktops to researchers to help them find a cure for COVID-19.
Many organizations in the ecosystem have joined the ranks of CoVax, and they participate as CoVax LiquidChain block producers and DAPP service providers.
As the situation develops, we are very happy to see how the blockchain community will unite and contribute to the fight against the epidemic.
06
➤ What are your expansion plans?
Beni Hakak:
The scalability of the DAPP network is exponential.
The DAPP network inter-blockchain communication (IBC) solution has demonstrated the connection between the EOS public network and Ethereum, and recently the EOS public network has been connected to WAX and Telos.
LiquidChains provides another way for expansion:
Multiple LiquidChains can be configured to interact and work at the same time in different parts of the application code and different parts of the transaction, thereby immediately realizing more efficient use of resources (such as shards). This method is especially suitable when the public network is congested.
LiquidChain, which is connected to various chains through DAPP Network IBC, can act as a "glue", splicing completely different networks into an interoperable grid.
EOSIO, Ethereum or other dApps on the smart contract chain can all migrate their operations to LiquidChain to enhance scalability.

Another advantage of using DAPP network expansion is increased affordability.
dApp developers will face many economic decisions when building and running their blockchain applications, and the integration of DAPP Network's vRAM system can greatly reduce their costs.
07
➤ Which EOSIO community projects have you participated in? How has the community reacted to LiquidApps?
Beni Hakak:
When LiquidApps was launched with vRAM, the expansion innovation we brought immediately excited the community.
Since then, we have been interacting with the community and growing together, and have taken many measures to encourage developers to actively participate in the DAPP network.
Our first initiative is to hold DAPP tokens:
As the only key to using the DAPP network, more people hold DAPP tokens, representing more people using the DAPP network, which will effectively promote the DAPP network to develop in a longer and deeper level.

The DAPP cyber hackathon we held last year was also one of our highlights.
This EOSIO-based online remote hackathon is one of the biggest events in 2019. It gathers developers, entrepreneurs, promotion talents and product designers from all over the world. They use LiquidApps' distributed network services to build scalability on EOSIO product.
A total of 234 participants from 12 time zones participated and submitted 20 projects. The hackathon is guided by the most outstanding talents in EOSIO and judged by a panel of industry leaders. The winning project is still under development, and we can't wait to share it with the world.
Currently, we have many grants and reward projects, and developers have the opportunity to win generous bonuses and cooperation opportunities.
The community feels incredible about our series of actions since our establishment: DAPP network can really bring together many outstanding teams and individuals from all over the world to create breakthrough technologies on EOSIO.
08
➤ Can you introduce your team?
Beni Hakak:
A few years ago, I hit it off with technical director Tal Muskal and founded LiquidApps.
The person on the right in the photo is me. I have a wealth of technical management experience and cryptocurrency economic expertise.
The one on the left in the photo is Tal. He is a technology entrepreneur and has extensive experience in expanding complex software systems. He once built a website that can display up to 1 billion advertisements a day!
This unique fusion of ideas led to the creation of the LiquidApps and DAPP network.
In addition to Tal and Beni, LiquidApps also has a group of professional and experienced teams, including all-star engineers, operations managers, and content creators.
Many of them have established their own EOSIO projects in the past:
For example, Nathan Rempel, once a member of Karma / GenerEOS;
Such as Nat Prudhomme, a famous EOSIO mentor;
Another example is Zack Gall, who was once the host of "Everything EOS", the largest video media in EOSIO.
They are all members of this outstanding team.
09
➤ What other projects have you collaborated on?
Beni Hakak:
We collaborate with others in three main areas:
Block Producer (BP) / DAPP Service Provider (DSP):
Many DAPP service providers (DSP) on the DAPP network are one or more block producers (BP) on the EOSIO-based chain.
Some DSPs on the DAPP network include EOS Nation, Blockstart, Cafe Block, EOS USA, EOS Rio, Malta Block and DAPP solutions.
EOSIO-based chain:
The DAPP network has nothing to do with the blockchain. Therefore, we work with many EOSIO-based chains to integrate DAPP network services locally in their network.
Currently, in addition to the EOS public network, the DAPP network is also running and running on Wax and Telos.
dApps and services:
These projects, such as Equilibrium, Chintai and DAPP accounts, use DAPP web services to power their dApps.
10
➤ Where will you see LiquidApps in the future?
Beni Hakak:
We have publicly stated from the beginning that we believe that the future is truly multi-chain, and have begun to provide developers with access to extended services and untrusted features.
In this sense, our goal is to become a cross-chain solution for EOSIO and other blockchains, so that each blockchain can expand in its own unique way.
11
➤ In one sentence, how do you want readers to remember LiquidApps and DAPP Network?
Beni Hakak:
DAPP network is a side chain based on EOSIO, and the development tools we provide provide effective help for scalable distributed applications.
