Developer activity by ecosystem: contract deployments and commits
Thread226 words
Uses Artemis data on contracts deployed, unique deployers, commits and active devs. BNB Chain, Polygon and Ethereum lead EVM deployments, Base's testnet tops L2 activity, and Ethereum has the largest dev community.
Key claims
Base testnet beats Arbitrum and Optimism on unique contracts deployed
Ethereum has over 2,000 weekly active devs, the most commits and repos
Polkadot ranks second on devs and commits
a key metric to keep an eye on is developer activity
every ecosystem needs builders
@Artemis__xyz is the best tool to track both
馃敼 on-chain activity (contracts deployed)
馃敼 github commits
let's have a look at the state of dev activity 馃У馃憞
let's look at the unique contracts deployed in the EVM universe
we see three clear leaders emerge
馃 @BNBCHAIN
馃 @0xPolygon
馃 @ethereum
but keep in mind, quantitiy doesn't necessarily equal quality. However, these ecosystems are definitely very active
we see the same pattern when looking at the number of unique deployers in the EVM space
it gets interesting when we look at dev stats on L2
based on the number of unique contracts deployed a perhaps unlikely winner emerges
馃 @BuildOnBase
馃 @arbitrum
馃 @optimismFND
devs seem to be very excited about the new @coinbase L2 as its testnet beats both $ARBI and $OP
again, this is supported by the number of unique deployers
not just one degen deploying hundreds of contracts on @BuildOnBase
@Artemis__xyz also provides data on commits & active devs per ecosystem based on github data
with >2000 weekly active devs, the $ETH ecosystem has the largest dev community
it also has the most repos and the most commits
on second place in terms of devs & commits we have $DOT
