Asia Leads in Crypto Developers While the U.S. Continues to Lose Ground

Cryptocurrency development is now a global phenomenon, with no continent dominating. In 2015, North America and Europe led, but Asia now has 32% of developers, with Africa and Latin America also growing. The U.S. still has the most developers at 19%, mainly in California, New York, and Texas, but this is down from 38% in 2015. India is the second-largest contributor with 12% after significant growth.

Ethereum remains the top blockchain platform, while Solana ranks second in 31% of countries.
