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

Oasis introduced the Oasis Genesis File and a timeline for Mainnet
This week Oasis introducing the Oasis Network’s Genesis File, which contains the initial state of the Oasis Network. Creating this file is a critical step towards releasing mainnet, and means Oasis is one step closer to launching the first privacy-enabled blockchain. Here is the brief overview of Oasis path to Mainnet:
▪️Genesis File Feedback — Now: The community provides feedback on the Genesis File which will be updated and locked by September 17th.
▪️Mainnet Dry Run — Sept 22nd: A test deployment of the network to catch any last bugs.
▪️Mainnet Beta — Coming Soon: A fully featured version of the Oasis Network with the ROSE token, but with transfers disabled.
▪️Mainnet Production — Coming Soon: Once Mainnet Beta is stable, Oasis expect validators to propose a network upgrade that would enable transfers of the ROSE token — transitioning Mainnet Beta to Mainnet Production.

Crust Network Overview
Crust implements the incentive layer protocol for decentralized storage. It is adaptable to multiple storage layer protocols such as IPFS, and provides support for the application layer. Crust’s architecture also has the capability of supporting a decentralized computing layer and building a decentralized cloud ecosystem.
The Crust project will join the Polkadot ecosystem as a parallel chain, effectively supporting projects and applications within the ecosystem. Because Crust is technically closely integrated with projects such as IPFS and Phala, Crust can also effectively expand the technology ecosystem of Web3. At present, public testnet Maxwell CC2 is live, and welcomes everyone to join for testing. Crust Network successively joined Substrate Builders Program and Web3.0 Bootcamp, and also obtained a Web3 Foundation Grant.
Crust Network has recently announced the completion of Series A financing from prominent investors: NGC Ventures, AU21 Capital, Bitscale Capital, Chain Capital, DFG, HashCIB, IOSG, KNS Group, Lotus Capital, Origin Capital, SNZ, Bitrise Capital, Consensus Lab, Waterdrip Capital, Ti Capital and others. Seed round strategic investor, Chengdu Infichain Technology, also provided additional investment in this round. Crust Network also announced the partnerships with BitcoinCom, Bithumb, Darwinia and Maskbook.
Crust will conduct a Sealed-Bid Auction on the 18th of September at 12:00 PM UTC! We are looking for more updates from the project and recommend to subscribe to Crust Network social channels not to miss important news.
