3/ 📌Ethereum is still King

Ethereum remains the undisputed leader in developer engagement:

🔹Ethereum: 2,545 devs

🔹Solana: 761 devs

🔹Cosmos: 702 devs

🔹Bitcoin: 600 devs

Ethereum is the clear hub of innovation, crucial for widespread blockchain adoption.

4/ 📈Modular Infrastructure & Tooling are Surging

Fastest-growing ecosystems attracting dev talent:

🦊 MetaMask (+97% dev growth in last 3 months)

💵 Celo Dollar (+29%)

⚙️ Maker (+28%)

⏱️ Space & Time, 🔗 Sequence (both +15%)

Specialized infra & apps are outpacing traditional Layer 1 adoption.

5/ 🍰Developer Preferences Shifting

Active developers (average by category):

🔹Layer 1: 981 devs

🔹Appchains/Modular: 611 devs

🔹Tooling/Infrastructure: 571 devs

🔹Layer 2 / Sidechains: 458 devs

Modular & L2 solutions increasingly attract builders focused on real-world use cases—efficiently driving meaningful adoption.

6/ 🔥Real Activity vs. Speculative Hype

The dashboards clearly correlate active dev count with code commits. This demonstrates authentic, sustained innovation not short-term hype cycles.

Ethereum leads decisively, setting a benchmark for practical innovation.

7/ 🌐Ethereum L2s: Adoption Accelerators

Developer activity comparison:

🔹Ethereum L2s: 1,385 devs

🔹Non-EVM compatible chains: 1,752 devs

🔹Diverse ecosystems (Other types): 19,941 devs

Ethereum Layer 2 solutions are rapidly gaining traction, fueling efficient scaling and real-world blockchain adoption.
