What are the Best ethereum DApp ideas that haven't been launched yet?
Ethereum's decentralized and anonymous nature are great for some types of Dapps, such as prediction/betting and stablecoins. However, there are already many players on both these fields (e.g. Augur, Gnosis; Makercoin, Digix).
What do you guys see as great use cases for Ethereum DApps (i.e. an app that would be better on Ethereum that on a normal website) that have not been launched yet?

* using Town Crier or some other oracle that utilizes trusted hardware to provide authenticated online bank transfer statements, for a Dapp that enables trustless fiat <-> ether exchange. This would be very ambitious and very costly in resources and time - possibly over a half a decade to really get it right.
* online markets, though several are being worked on
* a Dapp for trading GPU time for game-time tokens, and using the GPU resources to generate procedural worlds, fauna and plant life, like a much richer and decentralized version of No Man's Sky. With the GPU resources, the fauna and plant-life could be generated through evolutionary processes, to make them much more compelling and realistic.
* a privacy-focused payments Dapp, especially one that utilizes the new functionality that will become available with the release of Metropolis, which will make both ring-signatures and zk-SNARKs possible.
* a payment channel Dapp for use in a Lightning Network implementation
Please drop me an email on [email protected]. I have a few ideas.
