Dapp new users accounts to 300k in January. EOS reach a 50% user retention rate

Was Dapp ecosystem cooling down? Think again.

According to RatingDapp, there were 393,547 new Dapp users on ETH, EOS and TRON, the three leading public chains in January. New users on TRON amounts at 164,150, surpassing the sum of that on EOS and ETH, which is 79,528 and 59,869 new users respectively.

Until Feb. 15th, we see a 35.6 % retention rate overall. 108,065 people out of the new users conducted transactions through contract address of Dapps. The user retention rate of EOS Dapp tops at 50.9%, which is the highest among the three. TRON and ETH show a 33.5% and 21.2% new user retention rate respectively.

Each public chain has its strength based on data pulled out from “daily new users” and “retention rate” from RatingDapp. Here’s the takeaway:

1. TRON shows a strong user acquisition ability with its outstanding community engagement and easier wallet set-up.
2. On the other hand, setting up an EOS wallet is more difficult, which might be a hurdle for its user acquisition. However, EOS users are more active and engaged afterward.
3. ETH, the pioneer of Dapp public chain, performs not as good as the latecomers in terms of new user acquisition and retention. However, due to the need for a Gas fee on each transaction, it shows a more down-to-earth data performance excluding fake volumes, which might reflect more actual user behavior.

In sum, 2019 is critical to a Dapp comeback. The Dapps with better user acquisition and retention ability will be at the top of the wave.
