Cardano (ADA) had most active GitHub submissions rate in July, beats all major competitors
According to a ranking established by Saniment, the Cardano (ADA) ecosystem ranks first in terms of development activity, surpassing major projects such as Polkadot (DOT), Cosmos (ATOM) and Ethereum (ETH). The study was based on the number of GitHub submissions, push code, and issue interactions.
To calculate the metric, the crypto analytics agency uses the number of GitHub events that the project has generated. Accordingly, Cardano, with 387.33 contributions, took the top spot. It is followed by Polkadot with a figure of 281.97 developer events. Kusama (KSM), which has the same activity rate as its ecosystem partner, closes the top three.
As Santiment points out, the general ranking, if it gives an idea of the flow of life within the projects, in the case of the most popular blockchain, does not fully reflect its development activity. The discussion focuses on Ethereum (ETH), which is ranked fourth with 274.87 GitHub events.
Cardano’s ambitions are matched by actions
The fact is that Ethereum, being the most popular Layer 1 solution, has gathered some of the highest-profile projects in the crypto industry right now, and the level of activity of development on these projects overtakes that of entire blockchain platforms. At the same time, this signals all the brains now concentrated in Ethereum.
These facts, however, do not negate the amount of work done in Cardano, whose developers understand that if they want to take a piece of the pie from Ethereum, as the main competitor, they have to try harder, and they are I do.
