I explain often ways to choose what to invest into by some triggers. Today i want to share another one - number of Github commits.
To newbs, what is github ?
So based on this there is a site doing ratings - https://cryptomiso.com/
By commits they are:
- KMD
- ADA
- LSK
- ZRX
- WAVES
- EOS
- BTC
Does it mean its good? It may mean many things are being fixed or many dont work. Withotu context you dont know if this is a good rating or bad one.

Even if we assume every commit is equally useful, these stats are misleading because Cryptomiso only counts one Github project per currency. Openhub, which counts all of an account's projects, lists 15,823 commits for Bitcoin instead of 1,773 and 12,688 commits for Monero instead of 1,141 (but more years of effort for Monero).
I think the activity in an open source project is a very useful metric, but unfortunately it's non-trivial to measure "activity" - it is indeed needed with manual work here, for many reasons ...
Some developers may spend ten commits doing what other developers do in one commit - and there may be different reasons for that.
GitHub is a commercial company, their services are great, but they do not have some kind of monopoly when it comes to hosting open source products. There is gitlab and bitbucket, for instance ... and people may forego such services at all, hosting the necessary infrastructure themselves.
The assumption "one currency one open source project" may be wrong.
Without knowing the context, you can not realize is it good or bad.
Absolutely! However, you can at least see at a glance which coins are scam coins
BCC as BitConnect or BCC as Bitcoin Cash?
Bitcoin Cash has at least three clients, all of them open source. BitcoinABC does not have it's official repo on GitHub, but I wouldn't hold that against them (and there is a mirror of it at GitHub).
At one point I decided to go have a look at the source code of the 5 top crypto currency projects according to CoinMarketCap. At that point, BitConnect was among those 5. I did find a code repo at GitHub, but it did not take me long time to conclude ... "stay away from BitConnect" based only on what I saw on GitHub. :-)
I am happy to see that BCC doesn't automatically mean Bitconnect but unfortunately I am referring to the Scam
ConCoin.Interesting idea. I think a time component would be important here as well such as looking at when the most recent commit was so projects that have been quiet for a long time aren't as relevant. I have been thinking about monitoring the social component such as twitter. I know others have been doing this, but I haven't found a good platform to tie into yet. Does anyone know a good API for pulling social engagement data by token?
I would have never expected these results. Nice work :) Maybe ADA isn't a giant scam :P
Well, if you want to scam and you know someone is looking at this stats, you would purposefully bloat the number of commits.
I never had a positive feeling about EOS till we had EOS Hangout yesterday with @ejemai. He talked about it and made me understand more about it. He went further to tell us how to buy it with SBD cos that's one of the problems newbies like us encounter cos Steemit just introduced us to the Cryptocurrency world. Though buying it with SBD is a long process since no exchange site accepts SBD but I must do that..
You may love to read the full details of the yesterday EOS Hangout here https://steemit.com/eos/@udembahenry/steemit-uyo-eos-hangout-with-ejemai
Yeah Bittrex accepts SBD so its where I go to sell SBD to buy other currencies.
I think the number of commits should be only one parameter when analyzing the development of a coin!
a nice list of coins
Sure but does that mean that the commits are meaningful? I already made 3 commits for the same thing because I was being entirely dumb. Shit happens.
You should also have a look at the number of devs that do commits every month. If there is only one Dev , doing 10 commits every day , this is also really bad , because if that 1 person does stop working at the project , it will stop improving.
Github is a very helpful for us
it's wonderful
I don't really understand why we need to rate a source control website.
Its avery nice articles...
Good to know about
Tnxs
I like the writing of your article is very interesting people to comment on your article ,,,

Nice article. Thanks for the heads up.
github is a very popular hosting site.
good post friends
It a popular site and have heard about it from a friend
I like seeing EOS up there but to see Litecoin at 31 position not a good thing, or is it a really good buy right now, I’m for the latter.
I like seeing EOS up there yet to see Litecoin at 31 position not something worth being thankful for, or is it a decent purchase at this moment, I'm for the last mentioned.
Jithub is doing a good job, thanks for sharing.
nice sharing
To be honest with you, I have read your post three times and I still do not understand.
there are good times and there are times when it is not good.
Interesting. I wonder if this is something we could use to rate currencies or just misleading information. @ironshield
Helpful hints, thanks for sharing

HAI @kingscrown, good post, please come to my account @ajihasan
Good
great post its about bitcoin
Appreciate this technique of knowing your crypto currency better. Commits tell you that there is a developer community continuously putting in efforts to improve something. A live developer community to me sounds like a progressing project.
someone bless me
Rushed down to https://cryptomiso.com/ to find the number of commit of steem and steem dollar they are down there. Hope this not will not be the determining factor of the viability steem with the recent positive new emanating from different quarter about steem, i might have to concur with you that many thing might be fixed or not working
A very good information @kingscrown, I never knew about Github Commits from before, it turns out Github Commits very useful for us. But I do not understand how to use, and I will try to learn first. Thank you for sharing this precious knowledge. Hopefully you will be more successful in working... :)
Good luck all friends.
I think the price of the bitcoin price chart has ended in price decline. but its market name will be difficult for us to predict.
if according to friends here. how the development of bitcoin prices
I know about the GitHub. This is very old free service provided by Coder to help other. Millions of source code you can find here. Crypto is good for them to get reward for their hard work. I to take few source from there for free. May be they have vision that is why they use only particular cryptocurrencies only. So you can buy also because their analysis is good as compared to us.

Hey, what a coincidence, I just made a post about it a few days ago :))
https://steemit.com/cryptocurrency/@telasius/ranking-cryptocurrencies-based-on-github-commits
it is actually pretty good insight. if projects have been actively worked on you should see it. thanks for sharing!
edit: I checked out cryptomiso page and THIS IS PURE GOLD. seriously. GOLD. PURE.
Thanks for the site and your article. Following from now :)
interesting contests to follow,what about the theme, whether one day one theme such as colorchallenge, thanks.I am positive with steem and bitcoin it will soon rise. I am fully determined.
This is awesome! In a market so full of speculation this is kind of the perfect tool! I'll definitely be using it, just bookmarked it for the future :)
according to my estimates. bitcoin prices fall by the yearly charts go down like this. the price drops when we buy. for those who have bought bitcoin. hold until the price rises. I'm sure this is a game of money people. We have small money so have to follow their way.
