The ecosystem of cryptocurrency is currently disrupted by rebounds in the market price. With peaks dropping to a record low in less than a year, crypto-users are becoming increasingly reluctant to invest in this digital technology. However, this variation in the market does not necessarily affect the state of health of Blockchain, which accumulates vacancies.
Blockchain-related jobs up
A report from Glassdoor Economic Research mentioned that the downtrend in the cryptocurrency market does not prevent Blockchain from evolving. His analysis reports that 1,775 Blockchain job opportunities were recorded in 2018 with a 300% increase over 2017.
Daniel Zhao, author of the report, stated:
"The continued growth of job offers suggests that employers have confidence in market opportunities and continue to invest in their teams over the long term. "
What types of jobs?
The Blockchain is a multi-azimuth universe and the vacancies related to this field can concern the technical, financial or social sector . The development of Blockchain-related projects seems to be flourishing to the point of attracting multidisciplinary skills, despite the weak market dynamics of recent months.Giants like IBM or Coinbase offer key positions to fill. At the same time, they offer attractive salaries compared to the overall average. The overall salary of an employee in the Blockchain sector is higher than the average salary of North Americans. Engineers and technicians are well off, while other industries are not better paid.
