Is Blockchain a Good Career?

[Paglamon]

With no doubt, blockchain is one of the best careers one can pursue at the time. It is highly in demand and you get to be a part of something big. Not to mention, you will get high salaries in these top blockchain careers. It is due to the fact that the need for such positions are high and the people with relative knowledge are less. Among all the jobs required in the field, only half of them are being met. This means that there’s a shortage of blockchain professional with sufficient technical knowledge.

If we talk about top blockchain jobs salary, it depends on various factors like where you are working, what’s your skill sets and how much you are experienced. As a blockchain developer, you can get from as low as $50,000 to as high as $120,000 per year. Mostly, if you work in startups, you won’t get sky-high salaries and their packages typically start from 50,000 USD for freshers. If you have experienced above 5 years, you can earn around $70,000 annually.

Next comes the high techs firms that offer the highest salaries in the field. Initially, you can earn around $70,000 which increases with experience and after five years you can get as high as $120,000. The reason for such a big gap between the salaries of startups and established tech firms is due to the fact that blockchain developers are more interested in starting their own firms rather than working for others.

At last but not least, comes jobs at government institutions. You might not get the best salaries here but as you know govt. Jobs have their own benefits. The salary packages offered at govt. Institutions are even less than startup firms.

Blockchain education is very important today, if traditional economists had had a Blockchain-based education and had knowledge of volatility in markets like Bitcoin, perhaps the world would have the best acceptance about the Bitcoin market, However, in Spain they have already taken these aspects into account, that is why they have included in their blockchain pens, the link is here:http://catedraiecisa.etsiinf.upm.es/campus-blockchain/, but it is in the Spanish language, but I put it as an informative means that everything is on the right track.

For sure you will love to see this and will pursue your blockchain course or career if you see this salaries can possibly gotten by blockchain experts.

And for sure there are more blockchain related jobs which pay huge will came out in future since this technology is getting much attention and been used already by certain countries.

Yes, Blockchain obviously a good career! But it depends on how skilful you are! There is a twitter handle called @CryptoJobsList, almost every day they post crypto job alert, and the mentioned salaries are damn high! So, if you are good at UI developing, wallet and exchanges developing or expert in crypto coding then blockchain can be a very good career for you!

[Casdinyard]

Personally from what I am seeing with the industry right now, I think having knowledge about blockchain will help you a lot in the future because there is a big chances that it will be adopted by many entities. I don't know that much about the salary rates that you can get with it, but I guess it is relatively high compare to other jobs. Many people is doubting the blockchain because they are stuck on using the conventional way. So if asked, what are you going to get with blockchain? just answer, wait til the future comes and you'll see.

Technical skills, particularly those in a growing area, will always be in demand. If you are interested in developing skills in order to pursue a career in cryptocurrencies, then it might be worth you looking into learning Solidity - the language used by Ethereum. There are plenty of resources available, not least on the ETH website: https://ethereum.org/developers/

Today there are a lot of people making career into the world of blockchain because there is possible good income regard with this kind of learning some of the people today are taking courses just want to learn how to manage their ideas and skills related to the community of blockchain. Also, it is good if you are a beginner and does not have enough knowledge what are these also if you are going to tackle different transaction helps the user how does it circulate. For now, only a few industries accepted this kind of course because it is not too popular yet but if you want to take this as an advantage in the future why not it is a huge additional learning for you.

[jossiel]

The reason why it's in demand and is being offered with high salaries is because it's just starting yet with booming industry. And the blockchain professionals all over the world are not that much so there's scarcity for them.

That became a factor to increase their salaries because their skills are quite hard to find if a firm is focusing on recruiting them. A lot of aspiring blockchain professionals are already on their way to it and starts training themselves, taking blockchain courses and specialization.

You need to already be a good software developer to be able to become a blockchain developer, so you can't become a blockchain developer from scratch. It's also only worth learning if you have a solid safety net, because this is a very risky industry, it can easily disappear in a few years, and there are already signs that it is not doing well, because all these years brought no big results and companies start to realize that it's not working.

[Peanutswar]

In the future when the world of blockchain becomes accepted widely I think it is become in demand and at the early time that you would like to make an additional knowledge like this time we are on home base why not take time to learn more into the world of crypto currency and blockchain.
Here are the list of online courses offers cryptocurrency and blockchain learning I made so you can learn more.
Online Courses towards to learning crypto and blockchain

There has been an increase in demand for professional who are good in Blockchain after 2017. Recently Facebook also hired a good amount of professionals for it Libra project. New start up are coming out will help solutions using Blockchain technology. In my opinion it is one of the most demanding and best profession at this time.

[The Cryptovator]

Blockchain would be a good career if you can learn everything about it. We are realizing that day by day blockchain technology is expanding worldwide and it isn't limited with cryptocurrency anymore. Especially who is on stage of choose a career for future they would choose blockchain to study about it and become expert. You shouldn't expect high salary at the beginning, once you will become well known expert then companies will find you with reasonable salary. Rather than focus on salary we should encourage new generation to involve with blockchain technology. We can see lots of blockchain expert become established on that field, so they would be a good example for new generation and they would motivated by this way.

Crptocurrency is a branch of blockchain, so are many other purposes/branches. It is used to record transactions on many computer in away that it cant altered. Useful in health, product distribution etc. Blockchain technology serve as the most sort after career in recent job market especially as developer. Now that security is more important for blockchain with cryptocurrency, career in the path requires efficiency and experience

[de_ingenious]

It definitely is. 1) it's a new flourishing niche that ain't going anywhere. 2) it's a pretty versatile technology 3) job market demand exceeds supply at the moment 4) lockdown won't get you jobless

So a database is a career now?

There are people who base entire careers on programming once piece of software from one company. You don't think something that may wind up being used by billions across the world in so far unimagined capacities has the teensiest bit of potential?

The hard bit will be identifying what survives and prospers. I wouldn't be best pleased spending thousands learning ETH shit when something better and simpler pops up out of nowhere.

[XCANA]

Currently the best in my opinion is the Blockchain technology, not just a database from what we know from  kindergarten, the building of sophisticated softwares for companies and maintain their softwares will be great if one can take Blockchain as a career in life. Personally, I have always dream to be a good Blockchain technologists and have started from the lower level and hoping to be up with other professional challenges. Blockchain programmers are having a good pay at the end.

We cannot say that blockchain is a profession. Therefore, you must find a profession to build a career. We can describe working on a blockchain-based project as a career. In fact, I think it may be one of the most beautiful areas to work in today's conditions. I work as a community manager for several projects. Even if I am not fully involved in the project, I enjoy this job. In other words, working in the field of blockchain will create a beautiful vision for the near future.

Artificial intelligent, Augmented reality and blockchain are the future of computer science. Today various University throughout the world, research in blockchain technology is on the rise which means career in blockchain technology is a good part. Almost all sectors of business are in one way all the other find application in blockchain.

[gantez]

Lately here I have seen some thread where the op is trying to get help on their questionnaire about blockchain projects. This also is showing that blockchain technology is gradually going into the school system. The importance is growing and soon it will become a global practice as the blockchain field is getting more attention.

Yes, you need to learn top level programming languages to be able to developed a well secure blockchains and then you have to check the performance, so the programming language that a blockchain developer needs to pick is somewhat robust and flexible. So if you are poor in software development then it will be hard for you to get a job in blockchain industry. So why not focus on being a good developer first and then slowly migrate to blockchain in my opinion.
