How much does it cost to build a DApp?

It costs between $50,000-$200,000 to build a completely functional dApp. It is likely that you will get a better price although there is no guarantee of quality on freelance platforms like Upwork and Fiverr. The cost also varies with location which is a reflection of the cost of living across the globe. It is cheaper, for example, to work with Indian developers, while it may be significantly expensive to hire or work with talents from North America.

There really is no precise number you can put regarding the cost of building a dApp. Keep in mind that you have to hire a big team which you'll have to pay for the creation and maintenance of the app. After the project is built, you'll have to pay gas fees to launch the app and protocol fees to keep it running. So, having around $50,000 is a good foundation for building a truly robust dApp.
