Starknet and zkSync Diverge as Crypto Ecosystems Experience 28% Decline in Developers
Layer-2 scaling solutions Starknet and zkSync are among the few platforms that have seen an increase in their total monthly active developer counts over the past year, according to recent data.
Starknet recorded a 3% increase, while zkSync saw a 6% rise. In contrast, major networks like Ethereum, Polygon, and others experienced declines of 23%, 43%, and 57%, respectively, during the same period, as highlighted in an updated developer report from Electric Capital, which is based on data up to October 1.
This trend underscores the shifting dynamics within the cryptocurrency ecosystem, particularly in developer activity and engagement.
