Cryptocurrency analytics company Santiment has published its latest report based on developer activity data.

The report ranks the altcoins that have received the most attention from developers over the past 30 days, among projects that are partially or fully related to the Ethereum ecosystem. Based on Sanbase data compiled by Santiment, the list shows the projects where cryptocurrency developers have made the most significant code changes.

Santiment stated in its assessment that developer activity is calculated through metrics such as GitHub commits, code updates, and technical contributions, and that these metrics are an important indicator of long-term project health.

In the last month, the following altcoins, based on developer activity among Ethereum-based projects, and their developer scores, were ranked as follows:

    @media only screen and (min-width: 0px) and (min-height: 0px) { div[id^="wrapper-sevio-d098b0a7-6bf7-478a-a0ee-0619d281a09c"] { width:320px; height: 100px; } } @media only screen and (min-width: 728px) and (min-height: 0px) { div[id^="wrapper-sevio-d098b0a7-6bf7-478a-a0ee-0619d281a09c"] { width: 728px; height: 90px; } } 
  
 window.sevioads = window.sevioads || []; var sevioads_preferences = []; sevioads_preferences[0] = {}; sevioads_preferences[0].zone = "d098b0a7-6bf7-478a-a0ee-0619d281a09c"; sevioads_preferences[0].adType = "banner"; sevioads_preferences[0].inventoryId = "709eacfd-152a-4aaf-80d4-86f42d7da427"; sevioads_preferences[0].accountId = "c4bfc39b-8b6a-4256-abe5-d1a851156d5c"; sevioads.push(sevioads_preferences);

MetaMask USD (mUSD) – 893.07
Starknet (STRK) – 264.97
Chainlink (LINK) – 179.13
Safe (SAFE) – 166.90
Decentraland (MANA) – 93.10
Ethereum (ETH) – 92.27
Status (SNT) – 68.67
XinFin (XDC) – 64.57
Cartesi (CTSI) – 64.23-
Worldcoin (WLD) – 51.40

Chainlink, which was a constant top performer in previous lists, has dropped in the rankings this time. Instead, we see a significant increase in developer activity in the stablecoin project MetaMask USD and the Ethereum layer-2 solution Starknet.
