The Solana ecosystem saw a surge in new developers in 2024, surpassing Ethereum’s long-standing dominance in onboarding new talent, with 7,625 developers joining Solana compared to Ethereum’s 6,456. Despite this, Ethereum remains the leader in total developer activity globally, supported by its robust presence across all continents and the growth of its layer-2 networks. According to Electric Capital, crypto development is expanding worldwide, with notable growth in Asia, Africa, and South America. Asia, particularly India, leads with one-third of all crypto developers, while global activity varies by time zone, with stablecoins active in Asia and NFTs peaking in America.
