Assuming dApps are, in this context, end-user apps or services built on top of a blockchain, the market and common business dynamics will decide which ones make sense or die. I get it that Tezos is a pure blockchain, but are you aware of organisations that are trying to promote the adoption of Tezos? Taking the parallel of an OS, if there is no effort to attract developers to build their apps on it, playing with the built-in calculator and notepad can only get you so far, and the OS dies. Or maybe "build it and they'll come" will work for a blockchain?

Tezos will get traction and adoption only if dApps aimed at the general market can attract the crowds. What is Tezos doing to attract and support large scale dApp projects?
