Cardano (ADA) Flips Ethereum in Core Developer Activity – Tops Crypto Rankings
The annual core developer engagement on Cardano has reached an unprecedented peak, surpassing Ethereum to secure the top position.
After being labeled a ghost chain for several years, Cardano has now outperformed Ethereum in terms of core developer activity.
This shift in metrics is igniting renewed optimism that a prolonged increase in Cardano's price may be forthcoming.
Cardano Ranks As Number 1 In Core Developer Activity
Data from Cryptometheus indicates that the core developer activity of Cardano has outpaced that of Ethereum over the past year.
According to the developer tracking platform, Cardano has now taken the lead with 21,439 GitHub commits within a 12-month period, surpassing Ethereum.
During this timeframe, Cardano's GitHub commits spanned 550 core repositories.
A detailed examination of Cryptometheus data shows 12 core projects, while the wider ecosystem is active with 36 projects.
The developer engagement across these 36 projects is robust, encompassing 4,276 GitHub repositories, thereby dispelling previous notions that Cardano lacks utility and is merely a ghost chain.
These positive metrics for Cardano place Ethereum in a secondary position following a lackluster year, where cumulative developer activity on the Ethereum network totaled 20,962 commits, with its core developers not matching the activity levels seen in Cardano.
In light of Ethereum's recent struggles, Cardano's founder, Charles Hoskinson, forecasts a potential crash for Ethereum by 2040, citing its outdated technology, fragmentation in layer 2 solutions, and declining developer engagement as signs of an impending downturn.
Ethereum's second-place standing appears vulnerable, especially considering the significant developer activity reported by the third-ranked Internet Computer.
