Wow! What an exciting week we just had.
Yo! It's a beautiful first day of a promising new week with lots of expected bustle and hustle around different work domains across the world.
As is common knowledge, the crypto verse never sleeps nor slumbers even for a minute, so much that it is highly impossible to soak in all the information is available.
I will repeat again, for a subsequent digest - decentralized applications are on the rise and attracting a remarkable increase in development. Gradually the few rigid applications are steadily becoming a fleet of more flexible and scalable products.
At the forefront, EOS and Tron blockchains continue to lead the race in the dapp marathon heat, taking over the mighty Ethereum that refuse to harken to our need due to its lack of readily scalable solutions, in terms of system usage and adoption.
EOS, in particular, is a achieving tremendous feat in terms of usage. It was reported a few days ago that there were almost 87M+ actions processed in a single day according to blocktivity.info, a number which far exceeds the recorded actions of the following blockchain "Tron" taking the second spot on the list.
In today's digest, I will write about promising EOS dApps worth noting I came across, interesting discussions and posts on different forums and social media, reports, and few updates in the news.
Let Dive In..
Promising dApps
Trybe (trybe.one)
Touted to become the tokenized Medium, Trybe is an exciting promising project with a focus on quality content creation. Content can be created based on an individual personal choice of category, ranging from Blockchain, Finance, Economics, Politics, Health, Sport or even personal stories. Although content can be created based on any categories, there are selected categories that can actually be monetized through token incentive reward by the communities of readers.
The quality of content is a big priority on this platform so much that a post is first submitted to the in-house reviewing moderators to cross-check if the post is free from plagiarism or meets the required standards by being informative or educative before it is published.
After having a successful presale Trybe is moving on to the next phase of development - Trybe 2.0 which is currently in a testing beta stage, having been released to the public just today.
You should open an account today by visiting trybe.one to start producing quality contents you have in mind putting out or curate and enjoy contents produced by creators.
Lumeos (lumeos.io)
One of the major problems the decentralization move was established to resolve is the ultimate right and control of personal data. Centralized entities have long been robbing users of their privacy, forming big industries with huge profits around data mined.
Lumeos debuted to solve this through an existing means of polling. Users are asked their opinion about any particular topic from small to big companies or individuals. It is an ethical way of gathering accurate data about users behavior and opinion about a product or service.
Lumeos questionnaire can be in the form of a poll which takes seconds to answer or survey which may take a few minutes.
The exciting part is that the user gets rewarded via the Lume token for their time and attention and companies have access to authentic information with very reduced spending resulting in a win-win situation.
After a year of vision establishment, product development and launch, Lumoes is entering the second phase of development termed Platform 2.0 which will saw polls hosted by the project, being embedded directly on websites for more usability.
Visit lumeos.io to download the app and start engaging and getting rewarded for your opinion.
Based on my experience as a user, it is really some fun and a perfect way to make up some idle time.
Additional promising dapps would be discussed in tomorrow's digest.
Some interesting posts and discussions.

More Fiat support for cryptocurrency.
Have you ever experienced having to deal with the tedious unpredicted trading activities of your crypto asset keeping you awake through the night?

The HODL mentality still persists.
The stories about early adopter who held Bitcoin for many years later to discover what was considered some few pieces of software abracadabra is now worth a lifetime fortune accelerated the HODL perception.
It was the reason why many took long to dispose of or held onto their worthless bags despite being at a huge loss during the previous bull market that saw many ICOs emerged.
As the market sentiment grew over this viewpoint, the HODL mentality quickly became an old strategy for impatient investors or traders, scrap trading became the new way out. Despite this obsoleteness by greedy investors.
HODL still has some significant impacts and is seen as a tool for price stability by top visionaries and industry leaders.
Now, moves are being made to adopt more flexible staking functions by top industrial establishments with the intent of encouraging more coin and token retention by investors through interest yields on staked assets.
