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.

This is pretty good. The U.S. could led the way with this new technology later, who knows - They are certainly on the right path to do so right now.

They are of course smart people if they can see the obvious truth and adapt accordingly. In fact, there are many possibilities to Bitcoin and Blockchain we don't really imagine right now. I believe the world will be pretty different in around 10 years.

I posted this last month: The Cryptocurrency Job Market Is Exploding (Infographic)

Quote

...Between December 2016 and December 2017, there was a 207 percent increase in job postings for Blockchain positions on Indeed.com...

...Unsurprisingly, the tech-savvy state of California employs nearly 30 percent of the country’s crypto employees -- the most of any state. Of course, if moving across the country is out of the picture, another 15 percent of crypto jobs in the U.S. are remote....

The stats are not surprising when you consider the USA is like the "promised" land for any startup, lol.

Quote

As of August 2018, there were 1,775 bitcoin and blockchain-related job openings in the U.S. — up from 693 at the beginning of the year and 446 at this time last year.

This is not new, even last year there was a projection that crypto related jobs will boom in the coming years. So I'm not surprised by this reports. As this is the latest technology, obviously, only a handful has taken and offering courses about blockchain so its not yet saturated. And not just in US, but I think the biggest market is Asia, https://cryptonewsreview.com/blockchain-and-crypto-related-job-market-rising-in-asia/.

hopefully, there are hopes risen by this singular news. Jobs boom inline with cryptocurrency startups will go a long way to accommodate applicants of various level of degrees not only Lawyers, accountants, developers e.t.c. Hope that the government will look into the arrears of employment provided by this industry to accept it implementation.

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 amount of crypto startups is overwhelming. Considering its benefits coupled with the fact that more businesses accepting crypto as payment, it's only going to grow from here. All businesses are going to have to implement blockchain tech just to stay relevant. The more digitized their goods and service offerings become, the more successful they'll be.

It's not just the startups with ICO's that are becoming apparent, but those that provide crypto-related services working to make it more user-friendly and secure. (wallet app developments, etc.)

The percentage of blockchain and crypto related jobs are increasing due to the start ups. Majority of those start ups are running ICOs to fund them and continue with their business only after they are successful. So the study couldn't capture the entire picture in holistic way.

However, the only great feeling about this news is that the blockchain and crypto related job opportunities are increased in organized sector as well. Companies like Ernst & Young, BCG and similar companies are recruiting blockchain developers and consultants. Even though there is not much business opportunities available for them at enterprise level, still they are keeping themselves future ready!

What are the jobs exactly? I don't think that cryptocurrency is creating jobs on it's own, People could of course pay your salary with bitcoin or any cryptocurrency but I doubt that crypto could be used other than a currency.
