What can it be used for? ------------------------ -As a decentralized key-value database, it can be used to store data for all kinds of applications, such as social media, microblogging, public identity information, notary service. Kevacoin has limited support for smart contracts (similar to Bitcoin and Kevacoin), but one can still develop decentralized apps (dApps) on Kevacoin. The data is decentralized while the application logic is developed off the blockchain. +As a decentralized key-value database, it can be used to store data for all kinds of applications, such as social media, microblogging, public identity information, notary service. Kevacoin has limited support for smart contracts (similar to Bitcoin and Litecoin), but one can still develop decentralized apps (dApps) on Kevacoin. The data is decentralized while the application logic is developed off the blockchain. + +Our major observation for decentralized apps is that data is significantly more important than the application. In fact, that is the case for all kinds of applications. It is common these days to hear that companies rewrite their applications using better technologies, but it is rare for any of them to make big changes to their valuable data.
