The cryptocurrency analytic Kevin Rooke, who carried out this research, claims that ETH Network has the right to be called the leading blockchain platform for smart contracts. He notes that the Ethereum community already has over 250,000 developers. Rooke said: “The industry is still really small [and thus], 250,000 is a shocking number. Ethereum’s development framework called Truffle already has more than 500,000 downloads and even through the price fall of 2018, development interests have continued to rise.”
