Santiment ProofofStake Blockchain Surpasses Decentraland as Leading NFT Project in Crypto Development
A proof-of-stake blockchain has surpassed Decentraland, an Ethereum-based virtual reality platform, to become the leading non-fungible token (NFT)-related crypto project in terms of development activity, according to Santiment, an analytics platform.
Santiment reported that Flow, a layer-1 permissionless blockchain, had 190.77 notable GitHub events in the last 30 days, outpacing Decentraland’s 144.9 events. Metaplex, a decentralized NFT platform on Solana, ranked third with 23.07 GitHub events, followed by Axie Infinity, a blockchain gaming project, in fourth place with 17.97 events.
Santiment clarified that routine updates are not included in their count and they utilize a “better methodology” to collect data for GitHub events through a “backtested process.” The firm believes that heavy development activity signifies developer confidence in the protocol and reduces the likelihood of an exit scam.
Decentraland recently dropped to second place on Santiment’s list of top crypto gaming projects by development activity, with MultiversX taking the lead. MultiversX is a distributed proof-of-stake blockchain network with over 3,000 decentralized nodes.
At the time of writing, FLOW is trading at $0.735, down nearly 6% in the past 24 hours. Despite its ranking as the 84th crypto asset by market cap, it remains active in development.
