April has come to an end and Bitcoin price closed the month in the red zone after a long period of time. Today, the cryptocurrency market has lost blood in general and daily losses have reached double digits in most altcoins.
Despite this, cryptocurrency developers continue to develop altcoins, most of which are open source. Here are the altcoins that developers focused on the most during April and the ranking of their developer scores:
- Optimism (OP) – 541
- Hedera (HBAR) – 459
- Cardano (ADA) – 432
- Chainlink (LINK) – 397
- Polkadot (DOT) – 390
- Ethereum (ETH) – 323
- Cosmos (ATOM) – 301
- Internet Computer (ICP) – 295
- MultiversX (EGLD) – 247
- Aptos (APT) – 228
It is noteworthy that there are altcoins with much lower market values than ETH, ahead of the world's largest altcoin, Ethereum (ETH). Optimism, which ranks first, stands out as a layer-2 blockchain that aims to help scale Ethereum.
This data was obtained through cryptocurrency data provider Santiment and was created based on the Github profiles of altcoin projects. However, it is important to remember that developer activity will not have a direct impact on the price of a cryptocurrency.
