Top cryptocurrencies with massive development activity

Analysts at Crypto intelligence tracker Santiment identified top assets with the highest development activity, calculated by the developers’ GitHub commits. Experts noted the consistent rise in development activity signals long-term potential in an asset. 

Development activity across crypto tokens 

As seen in the chart above, Polkadot (DOT), Kusama (KSM) and Cardano (ADA) lead the entire pack in GitHub commits. Experts believe that these three cryptocurrencies have potential and traders can rebalance their portfolios, taking this into account. 

Polkadot and Kusama’s GitHub repository has increased considerably since 2020. DOT and KSM prices are largely unchanged over the past 30 days. With an increase in development activity, experts predict that the sentiment among holders is bullish, there is a higher number of features being shipped and less probability of the project being an exit scam. 

These features fuel a bullish thesis for DOT and KSM. Polkadot network witnessed one of the largest spikes in its Total Value Locked (TVL), fueling a bullish sentiment among holders.

What to expect from DOT and KSM price

Polkadot is in a long-term downtrend that started in mid-May 2022. As long as DOT price fails to definitely close above the trendline, the downward trend is likely to stay intact. DOT proce has a resistance zone between $5.78 and $6.99, the weekly low and high, where the asset has spent a majority of its sideways action in the past seven months. 

For the DOT price to reverse its trend, Polkadot needs to break out of this resistance zone and definitively close above the trendline. The three Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) are currently acting as resistance at $6.06, $6.23 and $6.68. 

These three levels are acting as immediate resistance for DOT and the bullish target is the resistance at $7.78 that has been a key level since 2022. DOT price climbed above this resistance between August and September 2022 and since then Polkadot has traded sideways. 

DOT/USD 1D price chart 

If DOT price nosedives to the monthly low at $5.15, the bullish thesis is invalidated and the asset is likely to plummet lower to early 2023 levels between $4.50 and $5. 

KSM price has been in a downtrend since March 2023 and the price plummeted after hitting a two-month high at $38 on April 17. KSM price corrected to levels previously seen in mid-March 2023. 

KSM has a resistance zone between $31 and $35. KSM price needs to cross the resistance zone to break out of its sideways trend and a definitive close above the trendline could signal the reversal of the asset’s downtrend. 

As of now there is no reversal candlestick pattern on the four-hour price chart and the asset is trading below its 10, 50 and 200-day Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs).

A decline below the $28.92 level would invalidate the bullish thesis and signal further correction in KSM. 

What experts predict in Cardano price

Akash Girimath, lead crypto analyst at FXStreet believes ADA price has laid a bull trap. The Ethereum-killer token is likely to trap bulls before a 20% upswing in its price. The expert believes a sweep of equal lows at $0.36 sets the stage for a 20% upswing in ADA.
