"Online marketplaces in particular are beginning to find great value in harnessing the blockchain through dapps. 5miles, a leading consumer-to-consumer marketplace in the U.S., is paying close attention to blockchain technology and decentralized applications. 5miles plans to empower the decentralization of the online marketplace through CyberMiles, a foundational blockchain being developed by 5miles’ blockchain technology lab, 5xlab."

Interesting points about the power of dapps for marketplaces of the future like Amazon.

Each block is stacked on top of the previous one. Adding another block to the top makes all lower blocks more difficult to remove: there is more "weight" above each block. A transaction in a block 6 blocks deep (6 confirmations) will be very difficult to remove.

Thanks for sharing! Great read. I see a lot of potential with dapps as they are the best option to mass adoption of blockchain imo.

With all of the roadblocks ico's and blockchain are facing, dapps seem to be the answer for the future. What are your thoughts about cybermiles? I've been seeing them everywhere

I'm a strong believer in dapps. Mass adoption is what I'm after and the blockchain mentioned seems very promising. Will be looking into this.
