The number of active crypto developers has fallen by 22% since hitting an all-time high last year, according to a mid-year developer report from Electric Capital, a prominent crypto venture fund.<\/p>\n

The date<\/a> shows that 21,300 web3 developers were active last month, down from a peak of 27,300 in June 2022. Despite the number of contributors dropping year-over-year, the report notes that activity is up 25% in the past two years, and 92% since mid-2020.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere are more monthly active developers today than before crypto markets hit an all-time high in Nov 2021,\u201d Electric Capital said. “Historically, developers in bear markets have lower retention.”<\/p>\n

Monthly active developers over time<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The data shows the resilience of web3 despite the recent bear market, with more developers active today while most digital assets languish well below their all-time highs.<\/p>\n

Veteran developers published more than 80% of all crypto Github commits last month, suggesting the 2022 bear trend sent many newcomers packing. Roughly 7,700 developers who worked in crypto for less than a year exited the space in the past 12 months, a 48% decline.<\/p>\n

\u201cDevelopers who left crypto recently were newcomers who worked in crypto less than 12 months and were only responsible for less than 20% of all code commits,\u201d Electric Capital said.<\/p>\n

Just 1,650 developers who joined in the last year remain active today.<\/p>\n

Osmosis, Sui, Aptos Attract New Talent<\/h2>\n

Several protocols bucked the downtrend by expanding their developer ecosystems.<\/p>\n

Osmosis saw the largest influx of contributors, closing June with 372 after growing 56%. Sui, Aptos and TON were other major gainers.<\/p>\n
