Burger Swap Overview
BurgerSwap is the very first Uniswap-like application launching on Binance Smart Chain. BurgerSwap emphasizes the concept of a “democratized decentralized exchange”, which mean that governance is not optional but mandatory. The users make the rules! Users of BurgerSwap can actually vote to change parameters of the exchange, including trading fees, staking rewards, mining speed, etc. And what’s more, users can only get staking rewards if they participate in voting!
Governance highlights of BurgerSwap:
▪️Mining rewards (Burgers) for liquidity providers
▪️Transaction fees are set at 0.3% on day one. All transaction fees are converted to BURGER and are sent to the governance pool.
▪️Listing and delisting
▪️Mining rewards
▪️No LP tokens - BurgerSwap does not have LP tokens, so there is no risk of liquidity being migrated to any other protocol.
There are some obvious reasons to choose Binance Smart Chain over Ethereum and other major public chains: Speed and trading fees, Adoption & Ease of use.
BurgerSwap currently has a 24H Total Volume of 591,325 BNB & a Total Liquidity of 1,039,253 BNB! We are looking for more updates from the project and recommend to subscribe to Burger Swap social channels not to miss important news.

TOP Blockchains by average daily development activity on the Github in August - September 2020
We took the data from Santiment. Projects are sorted by the average daily development activity during the last 30 days on the Github. The number of daily events is approximate.
Top 3 are Cardano, Ethereum, and Kusama.
Methodology:
Team at Santiment has their own vision of how to track the Development Activity of Blockchain projects on Github.
They do not count the following events:
- number of code pushes
- number of issue interactions — add/delete/edit comments in issues
- number of pull request interactions —add/delete/edit comments in PRs
- number of github wiki edits
- number of comments on commits
- number of repos open sourced
The benefits of this approach are the following:
- If the project forks some repository it doesn’t “inherit” the events
- Projects can’t alter your historical track record
- Dev activity is not only committing code, but also reporting issues and discussing code changes
