Oracle Network Chainlink Declared Top Project on Santiment’s Real-World Asset Development Rankings
The decentralized oracle network Chainlink ( LINK ) is continuing its streak at the top of crypto’s real-world asset (RWA) sector in terms of recent development activity, per new research from the analytics firm Santiment.
Santiment notes in a new post on the social media platform X that Chainlink registered 372 notable GitHub events in the past 30 days.
The figure far exceeds the second-ranked RWA project, the layer-1 blockchain Hedera ( HBAR ), which clocked 214 GitHub events in the past month.
The Ethereum ( ETH ) rival layer 1 blockchain Avalanche ( AVAX ) was third, with 138, and peer-to-peer payments project Stellar ( XLM ) was fourth with 97.

Chainlink has occupied the top spot on Santiment’s list all year, often clocking multiple times the number of GitHub events as the second-ranked project.
The analytics firm notes that it doesn’t count routine updates and relies on a “better methodology” to collect data for GitHub events based on a backtested process.
Santiment has previously explained that crypto projects with lots of development could soon be shipping new features and are less likely to be exit scams.
LINK is trading at $18.80 at time of writing. The top-ranked crypto oracle and 16th-ranked crypto asset by market cap is up nearly 3% in the past 24 hours.
