Crypto analytics firm Santiment revealed which DeFi altcoins are getting the most attention from developers right now 🔍💻.
Based on Santiment’s research—using data from key developer activities recorded on GitHub—the report ranks the top 10 DeFi projects with the strongest developer focus as we head into 2026 🚀📊.
Here are the DeFi altcoins leading in 30-day developer activity 👇👇
🔗 Chainlink (LINK) – 222.43
🌐 DeFiChain (DFI) – 127.93
📘 DeepBook Protocol (DEEP) – 116.50
💧 Lido DAO (LDO) – 58.47
🦊 FOX Token (FOX) – 50.80

🦄 Uniswap (UNI) – 33.63

🟢 DeFi tokens were some of the biggest winners during the explosive altcoin bull market of 2021. However, in recent times, many of these assets have been trading well below their former highs 📉.
⚠️ Projects with high fully diluted valuations (FDV) or uncapped token supply, while maintaining relatively stable market caps, are seeing sharp price declines—largely due to ongoing token dilution and supply pressure 💸📉.
👀 Developer activity remains strong… but the market is telling a very different story. #altcoins #crypto
