Cryptocurrency developers have been actively engaged on GitHub over the past week, focusing on various altcoins that are driving technical advancements in the industry. The projects and ecosystems that garnered the most developer interest as of June 2025 have been identified, with Cardano (ADA) and Ethereum (ETH) leading the list.

Cardano secured the top spot in core developer activity for the week, with 53 developers contributing to its 550 core repositories, resulting in 355 core commits. This activity earned Cardano the first position on a weekly basis. While there was a 0.3% increase in the number of commits on a monthly basis, the number of developers decreased by 9.8%. Cardano's ecosystem-wide activity also showed a downward trend, with 1,173 commits and 176 developers, marking a decline of 25.26% and 19.92% respectively compared to previous months.

Ethereum, although it did not perform as well in direct core contributions, stands out due to its extensive ecosystem. This week, 1,567 projects running on the Ethereum network were supported by 1,572 developers, who made 24,144 commits to these projects. However, there was a 24.68% decrease in the number of developers and an 18.04% decrease in the number of commits.

The ranking of altcoin projects based on the number of commits made by developers in the last week is as follows: Cardano (ADA) with 355 commits, Ethereum (ETH) with 215 commits, Internet Computer (ICP) with 189 commits, Flow (FLOW) with 166 commits, Hedera (HBAR) with 165 commits, Mina (MINA) with 157 commits, Tezos (XTZ) with 118 commits, Chainlink (LINK) with 110 commits, Polkadot (DOT) with 100 commits, and MultiverseX (EGLD) with 99 commits.

Additionally, the number of commits made in the ecosystems of these projects is also noteworthy. The Ethereum Ecosystem had 24,144 commits, the Internet Computer Ecosystem had 2,765 commits, the Polkadot Ecosystem had 2,110 commits, the Cosmos Ecosystem had 4,144 commits, the Cardano Ecosystem had 1,173 commits, the Arbitrum Ecosystem had 958 commits, the Flow Ecosystem had 441 commits, the MultiversX Ecosystem had 150 commits, the Stacks Ecosystem had 490 commits, and the Chainlink Ecosystem had 203 commits.

Solana (SOL) has been a significant focus for developers, driven by its ecosystem expansion and network performance. Solana's reputation for high-speed transactions and low fees makes it a popular choice for decentralized applications (dApps) and decentralized finance (DeFi) projects. Recent technical setups and token unlocks have further fueled interest in Solana, positioning it as a key player in the altcoin landscape.

Other altcoins have also garnered attention. Axelar (AXL) and Pi Network (PI) are in the spotlight this week, with developers closely monitoring their progress. These altcoins, along with Solana, present both risks and opportunities for investors as major token unlocks and key technical setups unfold.

Solaxy (SOLX) is building Solana’s first Layer-2 solution to address congestion issues. With over $55 million raised in its presale, Solaxy aims to enhance Solana's performance by rolling up transactions off-chain before settling on the mainnet. This could significantly improve the speed and cost of dApp interactions, making it an attractive option for active traders.

Bitcoin Hyper (HYPER) is another Layer-2 project focused on Bitcoin. By leveraging Solana's technology, Bitcoin Hyper aims to introduce DeFi, gaming, and cheaper transactions to the Bitcoin ecosystem. Its presale has already generated significant interest, with HYPER tokens priced at $0.01195 and staking rewards at 533% APY. The project's roadmap includes a mainnet launch by Q3 and the introduction of a DAO for governance by 2026.

Snorter (SNORT) is a unique project that combines a Telegram trading bot with meme coin characteristics. Its presale has raised $1.1 million, with SNORT tokens priced at $0.0943. The project's multi-chain ambitions, including expansion to Ethereum and BNB Chain by late 2025, have analysts forecasting potential returns of 6x or more. The project's focus on security and community engagement has also contributed to its growing popularity.

BTC Bull Token (BTCBULL) offers a straightforward proposition: rewards tied to Bitcoin's price milestones. With over $7 million raised in its presale, BTCBULL provides real BTC airdrops and token burns at specific price points. This approach has filled a gap in the market, and the project's DEX launch is anticipated to drive further interest.

The focus on these altcoins underscores the ongoing innovation and competition within the cryptocurrency space. Developers are continually seeking ways to improve scalability, security, and user experience, driving the evolution of the industry. As these projects continue to develop, they have the potential to reshape the altcoin landscape and attract new investors.
