Blockchain/Crypto roles

[Qcrypto]

Hey guys. I was thinking the other day about people that are involved in blockchain.
What I mean by that is how many roles are there currently which can be associated with this new technology.

For example: There are Traders, Investors, Entrepreneurs, Developers, Bitcoin Maximalists, Experts, Advisors, etc...

That was just of the top of my head, but I'm looking for more input from you guys.
It would be great to know what type of people are involved in Blockchain/Crypto and how many different roles can they have in the space.

Which roles do you think people can have in Blockchain/Crypto?

I think you have named most of the suitable roles for blockchain industry. Actually, almost everything that we have in most industries can play those roles in this tech.
How about those instructors, teachers, educators? or do they count in as advisors?

[noorman0]

All crypto holders can be said to have a role or are involved in the crypto space no matter where the specific aspect is even if they are just fans.

Don't forget that roles in crypto space are not always about Earning, but also Learning.
Take for example in this forum, every day some newcomers express their desire to know cryptocurrency in depth, and some welcome responses and initial teachings from old members. There will be 2 roles, namely as students and teachers (informally).

The cryptocurrency today is one of the most influential things in terms of the market because most of the people want to make a digital process which is less hassle and more convenient to them. Still, there are some people does not know what are the benefits of the bitcoin and this coin exist because they think it is just a scam and not a good coin to make more income but now we can say that the bitcoin as one of the widely spreading because many people now ate getting rich.

The blockchain is the process that is more secured and also in terms of integrity because crypto and blockchain are connected to each other because of the transactions they made to make more secure.

Still, some of the people want to adopt this kind of innovation and like the v chain which is they want to use by their technology and business.

It is good too if they have a database and they want to upload into the cloud storage because it is more efficient and no one can access that information.

That's good thinking. I like the idea of Crypto Students and Educators/Teachers. A very good role.

I dont think we can categorized other people in single role here. Some here are investor/trader/developer in one scoop. Also could be a mixture of developer, advisor and or any other. I can quote myself as investor/trader excluding the role of being an active user here joining this kind of discussion. But to answer you OP, any possibility of role can come out here, even a simple user of bitcoin who have just been using it for everyday life/transaction on his business. Depends on them but if you would categorized this, its a long list actually.

In terms of the users, there are many incentives that are different that one could have in using bitcoin. It could be ideological reasons, love for math and cryptography, political reasons, a need to evade the law... Academic reasons... And the aforementioned can also be broken down to several sub-categories too. People using bitcoin to evade the law can be simple crook, to scammers to hackers. There's quite a lot of utility those interested in illegal activity can derive from a digital form of cash that can not be seized so especially for them, there are probably several sub-categories.

In this part, we are talking about the technical part on cryptocurrencies or in blockchain since you mentioned such as traders, investors, developers, etc. which takes technical skills to attain it, even jus a traders or investors.
We should also consider those people who only use cryptocurrency for their daily lives, like sending fee to other people or using it for their business only.

I think that when participating in the cryptocurrency market, more or less everyone will learn about this market. Everyone knows the role blockchain plays in cryptocurrencies. And each participant has a certain role. No matter who they may be teachers, engineers, business people, individuals ... all contribute to making the electronic market become vibrant and rich.

The role varies depending on how you think of the coins.
If you think of it as an investment, you will see jobs related to investments from traders, investors, businessmen, experts, consultants and much more.
If you think about it in technology, you will see technical jobs like programmer, writer, developer, etc.
you thinking about it is what make it investment and add new jobs.

We don't have to categorize a person based on multiple roles. You can say "I'm a trader, investor and I am a blockchain evangelist."

That's 3 roles

Yes, this is exactly what I'm looking for.

Roles can be based on any parameter, as long and the person is participating or is involved in Blockchain/crypto

I would love to see blockchain in the local economy.
The driving sectors could be:
e-commerce;
Supermarkets, Mall;
Automobile business;
Banks;
Education;
Job;
Marketing, Advertising and Games;
And others.
In other words, the transformation of the economy that we currently know that could incorporates blockchain.

Which roles do you think people can have in Blockchain/Crypto?

Here are my definition of the roles in the cryptocurrency world:

1.Trader/investor-To me,crypto traders and crypto investors are basically the same.

2.HODLer-A crypto investor,who buys BTC to HODL for the long term(a few months or a few years).

3.Crypto "analyst"-Most likely not a real analyst,just a guy,who wants to spread FUD or optimism,with his BS analysis.

4.Crypto whale-A very rich guy owning lots of crypto coins.Most of them are hiding behind the shadows.

5.BTC maximalist-A guy,who wants Bitcoin to hit the moon and altcoins to disappear.

6.Crypto entrepreneur-There are a few legit,but 90% of them are scammers,or soon to become scammers.

7.Developer-Pretty self-explanatory...

I think that is hard to define fixed roles with fixed descriptions. Blockchain and cryptocurrencies evolve and change so new needs, new jobs appear all the time. Some general roles could be like developer, analyst, trader, trainer and similar but undere these roles there are also many different nuances and specifications. It's not easy to define and envisage all necessities in crypto world.

On the contrary, they could been separated as well. For blockchain technology per se, there could be software developers. But as far as cryptocurrency, investors, traders, exchange platform, third party services, much broader in terms of roles, in my opinion.

Which roles do you think people can have in Blockchain/Crypto?

I think you already mention almost all the roles people can have in blockchain, but i would add another one. "The creators", for me the creators are those peoples who find different applications for the technology. Those who take blockchain and try to make it better or try to play the technology for a new use.

Banks started with one person who had a money and people were taking shacks from him for that money.
Cryptocurrencies will start with the same idea, ordinary people and a small group of analysts and the jobs that you have said.
Activity boom will generate more jobs. more jobs will add more people.
In 20 years, digital currencies will create thousands of jobs and hundreds of thousands of employees.

[Zemomtum]

You have named them all but some can take multiple roles. Like for example, one can be an adviser and still be an investor in the same project. The mixture of investors and traders is also common as most people that do invest in crypto projects in this early stage are traders. anyone can take a role that they have develop their skill in such as marketing, those who can write very well and present the image of the project in most appropriate form, and so on.

[hatshepsut93]

Miner is a role unique to cryptocurrencies, all other roles can be encountered in other fields. Miner is also the most interesting role, because essentially it is entrepreneurship but it is also the thing that makes the backbone of a blockchain.

Bounty hunter is an interesting role too, because it's a very low skilled worker that does tasks for a promise of coins/tokens that might be worth something in the future. In real world people rarely work for anything other than real money or at least some useful commodity.
