Find Jobs in Cryptocurrency, Blockchain Industry
The job field in cryptocurrencies and blockchain continues to be in high demand. Skills needed typically include C++, Python, and Javascript for developers [1] but many companies and organizations employ those with entry level experience as well. Bitcoin mining has become especially popular. The process is available to anyone with the proper equipment. Miners receive bitcoin as a reward for completing "blocks" of verified transactions, which are added to the blockchain.[2]
Job Board for Blockchain Positions
The BSV Blockchain Association has launched the official Bitcoin SV Discord channel.[3] The posting board allows anyone interested in BSV, the scalable blockchain, to gather and discuss subject matter relevant to Bitcoin and blockchain.
For entrepreneur-minded individuals, the Bitcoin SV Discord channel provides opportunities to seek out financing.
Quotes
“The Discord channel is a good place for members to pose questions to the broader community, and share what they know with others in a productive environment. [Before the discord] There were tons of places you could chat with exceptionally talented developers, entrepreneurs, marketers, and investors in the Bitcoin SV space. The problem is that these places were fragmented walled gardens,” said Darren Kellenschwiler, the Developer Community Manager at the BSV Blockchain Association.
“By providing this open central channel, I think the goal will be to re-connect those separate tribes such that they can each benefit from the improvements being made in other areas of research and development that they perhaps would not otherwise be aware of,” he added.
