Ethereum has more active developers than the top 10 chains combined and the gap keeps growing. No other chain is even close 🔥
Everyone wants to build on Ethereum because it’s where the future is being built
The smartest minds, the biggest ideas, and the most ambitious projects all converge here
Ethereum is where the real innovation happens. The rails of global finance, AI, and the foundation of the next global economy is all being rebuilt on Ethereum
Ethereum isn’t just leading the revolution, it is the revolution
This chart is very misleading, and yes Ethereum still has the largest developer community of any ecosystem.
Here's why:
* This chart is only counting developers active in github/ethereum, a repo maintained by the @ethereumfndn. It contains things like the ethereum .org website, the geth client, and EIPs.
* But that is only a small portion of the Ethereum ecosystem. It is not counting any of the other independent client teams (Besu, Nethermind, Erigon, Reth, Lighthouse, Lodestar, Nimbus, Prysm, Teku, Grandine) or other core infra (e.g. MEV-boost) nor is it counting app developers, defi developers, devtoolling, any of the Ethereum L2 repos, or any of the thousands of other repos that form part of Ethereum.
* Because every other chain mostly centralizes its development inside one organization, this chart undercounts Ethereum relative to them.
* @ElectricCapital's developer report actually tries to map all of the relevant repos for every ecosystem, maintaining a high quality database, and here's what their most recent (2024) report shows for total developers:
Ethereum: 9,297
Solana: 3,868
Polkadot: 1,260
BNB chain: 967
