Deloitte claims in a new study that over 26,000 new blockchain-based projects were launched on GitHub in 2016. The report "Evolution of Blockchain Technology: Insights from the GitHub Platform" points out that the majority of the projects, however, have become inactive with only 8% still active.
Based on the said report, the leading cryptocurrency Bitcoin has unsurprisingly posted the most number of activities, with 627 total contributors and almost 12,000 followers. Go Ethereum (Geth), meanwhile, has attracted 149 contributors, as well as 5,603 followers so far. Geth is a software client that is maintained by the nonprofit group Ethereum Foundation. The report further claimed that organizations specializing in blockchain are “a positive differentiator” as 15 percent of the projects developed by them remain active. Meanwhile, only seven percent of the initiatives launched by users are active. The report also showed that San Francisco has the most number of GitHub repository owners, followed by London and New York.
