Solana 與以太坊：開發者的競爭

Solana 和以太坊之間的拉鋸戰正在加劇，兩個競爭對手似乎都沒有準備好讓步。儘管 Solana 繼續展示其潛力

The rivalry between Solana and Ethereum continues to heat up, with both showing no signs of backing down. Solana is making aggressive moves to show it can be a serious competitor, while Ethereum remains the undisputed leader in the crypto sector.

Solana 和以太坊之間的競爭持續升溫，雙方都沒有顯示出退縮的跡象。 Solana 正在採取積極行動，以表明它可以成為一個強大的競爭對手，而以太坊仍然是加密貨幣領域無可爭議的領導者。

However, there was a surprising trend in 2024 — Solana attracted more new crypto developers than Ethereum, marking a historic shift in the blockchain landscape.

然而，2024 年出現了一個令人驚訝的趨勢——Solana 吸引了比以太坊更多的新加密貨幣開發者，這標誌著區塊鏈格局發生了歷史性轉變。

Solana vs Ethereum: Battle for developers

Solana 與以太坊：開發者之戰

In 2024, the Solana blockchain attracted a whopping 7,625 new developers, surpassing Ethereum for the first time since 2016. Solana capitalized on its strengths — low fees and unmatched transaction speed — to achieve this feat, with a massive 83% increase in new recruits.

2024 年，Solana 區塊鏈吸引了多達7,625 名新開發人員，自2016 年以來首次超越以太坊。大幅增加了83%。

Meanwhile, Ethereum saw a 17% decline in its monthly active developers, which settled at 6,244.

同時，以太坊的每月活躍開發者數量下降了 17%，為 6,244 名。

Despite the drop, Ethereum still has the highest number of blockchain developers globally. A significant portion of this activity is driven by layer 2 solutions, like Optimism and Arbitrum, which together accounted for 56% of Ethereum developers.

儘管有所下降，以太坊仍擁有全球最多的區塊鏈開發人員。這項活動的很大一部分是由 Layer 2 解決方案驅動的，例如 Optimism 和 Arbitrum，它們合計佔以太坊開發人員的 56%。

Highlighting this aspect, Maria Shen, partner at Electric Capital, noted:

電力資本合夥人Maria Shen強調了這一點，她指出：

"Ethereum thrives because of its deep network effects, and the data confirms it."

“以太坊因其深厚的網路效應而蓬勃發展，數據證實了這一點。”

2024 年的一些關鍵數據：

While Solana is making huge strides, Ethereum remains a giant that even the most ambitious competitors find hard to dislodge.

儘管 Solana 取得了巨大進步，但以太坊仍然是一個巨頭，即使是最雄心勃勃的競爭對手也很難將其趕走。

Crypto and blockchain: A landscape that's increasingly global

加密貨幣和區塊鏈：日益全球化的格局

Beyond this rivalry, the Electric Capital report also showcases a broader transformation in the crypto developer landscape on a global scale.

除了這種競爭之外，Electric Capital 報告還展示了全球加密貨幣開發者格局的更廣泛轉變。

Asia overtook North America in 2024, emerging as the primary hub for blockchain talent. With India alone contributing 17% of new developers, the continent exemplified this reshuffling.

亞洲於 2024 年超越北美，成為區塊鏈人才的主要中心。僅印度就貢獻了 17% 的新開發商，該大陸就是這種洗牌的典範。

In the United States, however, not all is lost, as the country still retains 19% of the total active crypto developers. Despite this, Shen emphasized the need for greater global diversity, stating that "crypto is designed to be borderless."

然而，在美國，情況並沒有完全消失，因為該國仍然保留著活躍加密貨幣開發商總數的 19%。儘管如此，沈強調需要更大的全球多樣性，並表示「加密貨幣的設計是無國界的」。

The rise of developers in Asia can be partly attributed to local initiatives, such as hackathons, technical training, and community support. This global expansion is set to make the blockchain ecosystem even more robust, while simultaneously heightening the competition to attract the best talent.

亞洲開發者的崛起部分歸功於當地的舉措，例如黑客馬拉松、技術培訓和社區支持。這種全球擴張將使區塊鏈生態系統更加強大，同時加劇吸引最優秀人才的競爭。

In a record-breaking year for Solana, 2024 will be etched in investors' minds as a pivotal year. But as December draws to a close, they eagerly anticipate further developments from their favorite blockchain, preparing to predict the next trends that will shape the crypto landscape.

對 Solana 來說，2024 年將是破紀錄的一年，並將作為關鍵的一年銘刻在投資人的腦海中。但隨著 12 月即將結束，他們熱切地期待著他們最喜歡的區塊鏈的進一步發展，準備預測將塑造加密貨幣格局的下一個趨勢。
