• Uniswap recorded the highest development activity in October.
• The DEC has witnessed increased user activity since the FTX debacle.

Santiment, an on-chain analytics site, revealed that the DeFi protocol witnessed the highest development activity over the last month. Uniswap has its GitHub events totaling 176 within the previous 30 days. Osmosis and Fox Token followed with 164 & 123 Github contributions, respectively.

November has so far presented impressive actions for Uniswap. FTX’s sudden debacle triggered deteriorated faith in centralized exchanges (CEXs). That translated to user migration to DEXs (decentralized exchanges).
