Global Crypto Dev Stats (2026)
Full-time devs: 8,700+
Monthly active devs: 23K
Total repos: 657K
Total commits: 86M
But here's the problem in just 1 year, total active devs dropped 38%
Full-time devs declined 19%
And Newcomers have nearly fallen to zero
One thing still gives hope:
Established devs (3+ years) grew +40%
meaning those who have stayed this long are only getting stronger
Ecosystem-wise full-time dev count:
EVM Stack - 4,357 (-22% YoY)
Ethereum - 3,291 (-20%)
Solana - 1,053 (-18.4%)
Bitcoin - 951 (+30.5%)
Base - 430 (-17%)
@base currently has 1,582 total devs, of which 430 are full-time and 697 are established, meaning the foundation of experienced builders remains solid
