The number of mentions indicates the total number of mentions that we've tracked plus the number of user suggested alternatives.
Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Müsli - An experimental binary serialization framework with more choice
Love seeing the work on modes! There's definitely a use for this in cryptography, where you might want to serialize things containing elliptic curve points, which can be serialized in both "compressed" form and "uncompressed" form. We make extensive use of this in our serialization framework in arkworks: https://github.com/arkworks-rs/algebra/tree/master/serialize

What application will make Rust its prime ?
Rust takes the cake in the blockchain space: Substrate, Cosmos (CosmWasm), and Solana. All of the zero knowledge cryptography libraries used for layer 2 solutions are written in Rust, compiling to Wasm (see arkworks, Risc0). Ethereum's next version of smart contracts will even use a restricted subset of Wasm ("Ewasm") instead of EVM.

Example of how of `disallowed_method` Clippy lint in Rust 1.54 can be quite handy
Is ark a prefix Embark is using for all their Rust crates, or is it a one-off name for your future crate? If so, it might collide with our naming convention in the arkworks ecosystem: arkworks.rs

Best way to enforce correctness of modular arithmetic?
You can take a look at our approach in the arkworks library: https://github.com/arkworks-rs/algebra/blob/920070c60d481a29fb3c262ef9579f34cbb053a6/ff/src/fields/macros.rs#L103

What to do next... Web 3, Rust, Solidity?
To offer some perspective outside of the typical "all crypto is a scam", Parity is doing some cool stuff with a rust modular blockchain library called Substrate https://github.com/paritytech/substrate.

Why am I not receiving staking rewards?
Verifying NPoS election solution graph and its score is a memory-intensive operation that needs to be performed within a single block time. Under the current runtime constraints, a solution graph with 22,500 nominators can be verified well within the block production time on Polkadot. There are plans to improve on this and implement multi-block election solution verification, after which, the NPoS system can scale to incorporate more nominators.
- Fast-unstake is now available on Kusama. This allows instant unstaking if you have not participated in staking in the last 28 eras.
