The post Top Blockchain Ecosystems See Decline in Developer Activity, Despite Isolated Gains appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The recently released data on developer activity across major blockchain ecosystems has shown a widespread decline with only a few platforms seeing slight increases in contributors. These are significantly lower than the levels of development activity, measured by the number of contributors and the number of DevActivity Events in most tracked chains. General Trending in Developer Activity Ethereum maintains its lead against the ecosystem rankings with around 70.4K DevActivity Events. However, this is down by 17.58% from previous reporting periods. Its developer base also continues to be robust, with 1.3K contributors, though that’s also down 2.09%. BNB Chain ranks second with 29.4K events, which is down by 31.18%. Interestingly, the number of contributors for BNB Chain increased slightly by 0.5674% to 709. This indicates a slight increase in participation, despite a decrease in overall activity. Polygon, Cosmos and Optimism complete the top five, all experiencing a sharp decline in DevActivity Events, ranging from 26% to 33%. The largest decrease in this group was seen in Polygon with a 32.67% decrease. The numbers of their contributors also fell in line with the trend, with losses ranging from 0.7% to 4.76%. Arbitrum, which was ranked sixth, saw a decrease in activity by 33.59% but, unlike most others, saw a 3% increase in DevActivity Event Contributors. This can indicate better involvement in the community even though there is less output. Addressing Losses throughout the Rest of the Ecosystem Solana, Avalanche, Polkadot and Harmony, all in the bottom half of the top ten – also saw significant drops in development activity. Avalanche was hit the hardest in this group, losing 35.11%, followed by Harmony losing 29.01%. The number of contributors also dropped in accordance with the trends, especially Solana and Harmony lost 8.7% and 8.39% respectively. Polkadot was the sole exception in this segment… The post Top Blockchain Ecosystems See Decline in Developer Activity, Despite Isolated Gains appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
