Topic: Prerequisite as blockchain developer? (Read 206 times)
There is no formal training here in the making of blockchains but there are experts in ICT that enables them to create blockchain. I have read a while ago that some experts are giving educational trainings, seminars in the related cryptocurrency technical aspects.

If you like to get a job as blockchain developer, not only focus in cryptocurrencies, I recommend you to learn golang, since business blockchains are usually based in Hyperledger projects.
