Chainlink LINK Sets New Benchmark in DeFi Development with Record GitHub Activity

Chainlink has reinforced its leadership in decentralized finance (DeFi) development by recording 363.73 significant GitHub activities in the past month—an all-time high for the oracle network. According to Santiment's back-tested methodology, Chainlink continues to outperform competitors like DeepBook Protocol (193.57 activities) and DeFiChain (152 activities), securing its position as the top developer hub for three consecutive months.

This sustained development momentum underscores strong team commitment, with Chainlink's infrastructure remaining critical for smart contract interoperability. While price action may eventually reflect this technical foundation, Santiment emphasizes that only meaningful development signals (excluding routine updates) are factored into their analysis.
