 +In addition to the explosion in cryptocurrencies,​ two different crypto-related concepts have emerged: [[dido:​public:​ra:​xapend:​xapend.a_glossary:​m:​memecoin | Memecoins]] and [[dido:​public:​ra:​xapend:​xapend.a_glossary:​n:​nft | Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs)]]. When Memecoins are listed on exchanges, they are just classified as a cryptocurrency. There is no way of knowing how many non-listed Memecoins there are.
 +
 +However, NFTs use existing DIDO platforms such as Ethereum and smart contracts, but instead of representing [[dido:​public:​ra:​xapend:​xapend.a_glossary:​f:​fungibility]] ((**Fungibility** is the interchangeability of a good or asset with other specific goods/​assets of the same type, simplifying trade and exchange processes. [[https://​www.investopedia.com/​terms/​f/​fungibility.asp]])),​ such as Bitcoin, or an Eth. NFTs represent a one-off entity that is unique from any other entity.
 +
 +There appears to be a decline in the interest of NFTs, but still, as of July 2021, there was still a lot of interest.
 +
 +  : //Another interesting fact about figure 1 is that, while the number of bids has significantly dropped from the first months of 2021, the number of NFTs minted by creators has not seen a drastic decline. This contrast between minting and bidding activities could suggest that even though art collectors are now less inclined to buy NFTs on Foundation than in the first months, digital art creators have not lost hope in selling their artworks on Foundation.//​ ((

 +Looking beyond the Crypto-World,​ there are other uses of the Distributed technologies. These are not necessarily referred to as Blockchains,​ but often as Distribute Ledger Technologies (DLT). Figure {{ref>​distUseCasesGraph}} provides the results of a survey conducted in Singapore on the use cases of Blockchains within the very active Singapore community. Every respondent could select any number of the use cases.

 To provide a common language for stakeholders,​ the DIDO RA describes the components of a distributed network of peers supporting distributed data and computation. It is comprised of a collection of peer [[dido:​public:​ra:​xapend:​xapend.a_glossary:​n:​node|nodes]] that operate within a virtual distributed network. Each node in the architecture selects the set of architectural components, and the relationships between the components, required by their stakeholders to solve the specific requirements (e.g., blockchains,​ cryptocurrencies,​ distributed ledgers, graph databases). The individual nodes synchronize via distributed software communicating over a secure messaging infrastructure. All computations and operations could be executed redundantly on all the nodes within the DIDO network of peers. DIDO components are virtual representations of functionality found in DIDO products. In addition to identifying and defining the components and their inter-relationships,​ the RA associates each component with existing standards (refer to Section [[dido:​public:​ra:​1.2_views:​1_stakeholder:​7_stds|2.1.7]]). To provide a common language for stakeholders,​ the DIDO RA describes the components of a distributed network of peers supporting distributed data and computation.
