Sharplink Co-CEO and former Blackrock executive Joseph Chalom stated that Ethereum has over 900,000 validators and more than 1,000,000 developers, possessing a decentralization advantage that Solana cannot match. Data from Electric Capital shows that 1,012,824 developers have contributed code to Ethereum, with about 232,000 remaining active over the past 12 months.
Chalom noted that Solana has fewer than 800 validators, with 92% running on the same client. Data shows that Sharplink held 886,725 ETH as of late June.
