Bitcoin And Blockchain Jobs In The U.S. Are Surging

[jseverson]

I wonder in what area these jobs really are, there are bound to be a lot of jobs for specialists in a variety of areas, think lawyers, accountants, compliance specialists and many more. That's discounting all jobs that are even directly involved in the creation, development or adoption of any cryptocurrencies.

The article actually answers this question:

The survey revealed the bitcoin and blockchain software engineers are the most in-demand, followed by other technical roles such as product manager and technology architect.

So they're not much different from typical tech companies, which isn't all that surprising considering the fact that they're also in tech.

People seem to think the SEC will play nicer with crypto as a whole because it provides employment, but I doubt that. It's out of their mandate. The directive to ease up would have to come from higher up. It's kind of like how ICE has ramped up its operations vs. illegals under Trump despite no change in laws.

The U.S. jobs boom, which saw a record 7.14 million unfilled positions in August — coupled with last year's bitcoin mania — has resulted in a 300% increase in the number of jobs related to bitcoin, cryptocurrencies, and blockchain over the last 12 months, according to new research from jobs site Glassdoor.

Despite the bitcoin and wider cryptocurrency market struggling throughout the year, it would seem from job openings that both established and startup companies are taking the possibilities of bitcoin, cryptocurrency, and blockchain seriously.

Bitcoin is not that crypto currency that is always been criticised as I still remember the time of 2009 when everyone was in against of bitcoin and were calling it a scam and now the time is that bitcoin is now considered as a boon for the humanity and now the same people are praising SATOSHI NAKAMOTO for such a great invention and now bitcoin has also started to be accepted in many places and this is very happy to feel that in US bitcoin and Blockchain jobs are surging.

Blockchain will provide employment for everyone but I do not know what the specific job is, I'm wondering if these companies will survive or not?

Blockchain and cryotocurrency is one of the future jobs that will engage many people.  As adoption increases,  job competition will also increase and probably be one of the highest paying jobs.  This is indeed a great opportunity . The blockchain has done alot  of good and will do more of it.
