Looking For A Blockchain Developer Intern

At 20|30, we are looking for an intern to help us build our definitive index of cryptocurrencies. It’s a big project. We already have about six people working on it. Now we’re looking for someone to build a multi-blockchain explorer. At first, it’s to track our multi-blockchain portfolio, which will consist of about 50 cryptocurrencies. Later, we would like to build a general multi-chain explorer. We hope to find a sharp developer who has familiarity with crypto, APIs, and blockchains in general, and who is excited about our project to change the world. Please introduce yourself in our forums (http://forums.2030.io) and tell us what experience and interest you have in this project.

(Edit: This project will be paid in our future stock token, which won't be public for more than a year. All of us are working passionately to build this future. We do it to work together on ground-breaking projects. The reward of future stock is an afterthought. )

Thank you.

Is this a paid internship or are you just looking for free labor?

I posted it for David Siegel: https://2030.io/about/ 

His Blogpost contains the info now:

"This project will be paid in our future stock token, which won't be public for more than a year. All of us are working passionately to build this future. We do it to work together on ground-breaking projects. The reward of future stock is an afterthought."

so if the project doesn't work out then you would have just received free labor

ding ding ding. We have a winner.

Or if they decided to make a new company you are left with worthless stock.

I would suggest that those who might be interested contact the team and ask whatever questions might be there.

My understanding is: It's for those who see potential in the project and would like to participate. In that case it could be seen as something like an "early investment" - not with money but skills/effort/work. Those who don't want that or only would work for quick payment are also free to make that decision and stay back.

Not necessary in my opinion are "between-the-line-assumptions" it would be shady. If I would have that concern I wouldn't have agreed to post it.

No matter how you try to explain, every decision comes with a risk which might work out or not. Its true that if the project didn't work out as planned, then its a free labour, its also true that if it does, that might be more than winning a jackpot so anyone who want to try it out should just ask himself one simple question, which of the outcome will I be able to live with if I take the decision to join in or not. And the case is settled.

It's like investing - in this case not money but time and ability. And whenever somebody invests in something and it's a legit investment it involves the risk that it might not turn out as successful & profitable. But if - it could be worth much more than the usual labor-hour-payment.

Because of the most important question: Nobody will die ;-)

There are many different points of view, but I think you should pay the developer at least if you pay the developer, you avoid problems in the future.

My opinion!

I posted this for David Siegel. So, no payment from me. ;-)

I don't even think it needs much discussion about this. Those who are interested can contact him. Those who are not are not.
