Notes the number of crypto developers is down over 21% in three years, but expects growth to return on maturing infra, stablecoins and tokenized assets, DeAI and regulatory progress.
Key claims
Crypto developer count down over 21% in the past 3 years
Overall, number of devs in crypto is down over 21% in the past 3 years
Think numbers are likely to go up again though, with a bunch of enablers that could spark renewed growth among builders:
- Maturing infra stack and more performant chains enabling new use cases and applications onchain
- Growth of stablecoins and tokenized assets more broadly speaking
- DeAI infra that is emerging as one of the highest potential vertical of the industry and enables use cases at intersection of AI and crypto
- Progress on regulatory front which enables and protects innovation
DYOR anon.
