it's not that easy to become a developer, you can't call yourself as a developer if you are just like for example, copying the codes, even non certified can be a great developer, the certificate is just paper, you can have lots of certificates but you might lack on skills, to create a certain project is not that easy, you need to have a background, developers are working at the backend coding, I think the one who is doing the bad jobs are in the front although developers might know it already since they were a team.
The fact is how will you know if the person that called himself a developer is really a developer, I think what the original post is trying to tell us is the fake developers amongst us today, they can build tokens through smart contract platforms and it cost nothing to pretend to be a developer today

there is no certificate of qualifications to be a crypto developer, tokens are so damn easy to build through smart contract platforms
Certificate is from their source code. If their projects are created by source code of other projects and they only change minor details: project names, token name, ticker, total supplies, blocktime, block rewards. Those projects are scam.I don't consider people who create and run scam projects as developers. They don't deserve to be called as developers.
This is a very old topic, there are very, very few real projects. Since the ICO, such projects have multiplied in batches, only the lazy did not create them. And I honestly don't understand what this topic is about? Look at the section "Scam Accusations" There such craftsmen regularly appear with accusations of fraud.
OP, do you suggest we try too? Since everything has become so simple
As for the cryptocurrency, deceptions have been and will be. Therefore, everyone needs to know this and not rely on the promises of the developers. Develop your thinking, learn to analyze, proceed with caution, and take your time. And only after careful analysis can you believe in the project, and even then with a fair amount of skepticism.

If you can build a token based crypto project you can call yourself a developer, it's very easy to become one today without any expert in the field since we have smart contracts that can automatically build any, this is why too many fake and scam tokens
I do hope there is some kind of certificate to identify people that are professionals in blockchain but it's not going to be possible, it's why many believe that regulations is the only solution to scams in crypto space, there must be a way to identify what's good and what's bad or else for many years to come scammers will keep trampling on the weak
i suspect most of the scammers are just posers as devs. the page of the website doesn't even have details of what they were dong.
if they are really good programmers and are well connected they might get a lot of funds if they do an ICO. i think that's how it all started with the ICO mania. but wouldn't settle for just developer though. its not a very high status. you don't even sound successful when labelled Developer unless its related to real estate. anyone can release a token with just a click but you should call yourself Founder, being pioneer sound a lot better.

To start a crypto project, creating a token is the last thing you should think of. You don't have to be a developer or to have any solid knowledge about programing to create a token.
A lazy scammer, can simply copy the smart contract code of another token, change its name and deploy it as his own.
A genuine entrepreneur, can hire a developer to write the code.
The important part is how to promote the project and convince others to invest in it.

This is the reason why you can see a lot of plagiarism here, just go to scam accusations board. And also, buying a domain and creating content is very easy nowadays. There are free templates that they can use but some still manage to copy someone else's project. And yes, creating a token is easy peasy. There are even tutorials how to create one. Now, if the team knows how to market their project, they can deceive naive buyers and once they collect something, they can disappear without a trace. So if you are an investor, better look for warning signals and not be screwed by these scammers.

Regardless, the question here is not really about a certificate or degree, but perhaps rather more about the relative ease to piggyback off prior existing projects, and create a copy/[spin]/paste type code that resembles some sort of token. The issue I figure is really down to the bad spirit that some people have had in the past, not because of their lack of qualification, but because of their will to take advantage of people, sponsored by the fact that creating a token is easyish. A degree in IT will not solve that.
I was both a CNE and MCSE. I remember the engineering departments at the U of A lobbying hard to remove the "E" from the title.

IT programming has always has a rather high degree of what’s called professional intrusion, with people having a wide range of backgrounds being related to project development. I recall a time when people debated whether an IT programmer should be an engineer, and if even the degree should lead to an IT programmer being labelled an engineer at all (something along the line of bridges built by engineers not (normally) collapsing, but software rather prone to errors).Regardless, the question here is not really about a certificate or degree, but perhaps rather more about the relative ease to piggyback off prior existing projects, and create a copy/[spin]/paste type code that resembles some sort of token.

Newbies always have it in the back of your mind that where ever money is flowing through scammers and con artists will be waiting to take advantage of you, today almost everyone wants to be a developer, there is no certificate of qualifications to be a crypto developer, tokens are so damn easy to build through smart contract platforms, I can build one myself and find a good name for the project with probably old existing use case but I don't have the heart to cheat people, developers want to ride the crypto wave for the money that's why most new projects have short life span, we have so many unqualified developers in our midst, they are here for your money, know where to put your hard earned money and also take limited risks
