-In addition to the explosion in cryptocurrencies,​ two different ​phenomena ​have occurred: [[dido:​public:​ra:​xapend:​xapend.a_glossary:​m:​memecoin | Memecoins]] and [[dido:​public:​ra:​xapend:​xapend.a_glossary:​n:​nft | Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs)]].

 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. 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.

 +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.
