If you thought that 2019 was an excellent year for crypto and the blockchain, 2020 would reportedly be mindblowing, especially in terms of developments in the crypto industry.
Despite the considerable volatility of prices in the crypto market, there are various optimistic predictions regarding bulls returning in the crypto space and important upcoming developments.
The crypto space is also expected to fully embrace the mainstream adoption of digital assets and more.
Blockchain pros are in demand in 2020
Now, it’s been reported that a brand new report coming from the social media giant LinkedIn said that the blockchain professionals are in demand in 2020.
This report placed the blockchain tech at the top list of hard skills that are much appreciated – this comes above expertise in “cloud computing, analytical reasoning, artificial intelligence, user experience design, business analysis, and affiliate marketing.”
The report continues and explains that “Blockchain was born in 2009 to support the use of cryptocurrency. But blockchain’s novel way to store, validate, authorize, and move data across the internet has evolved to securely store and send any digital asset. The small supply of professionals who have this skill are in high demand.”
There’s also a recent study from Indeed that found that the number of jobs in the blockchain and crypto industry increased by 26% from 2018 to 2019.
Employer demands skyrocketed but on the other hand, it was also reported that searches for BTC, blockchain, and crypto fell by 53%.
“Employers, however, are doubling down on these tamper-proof blockchain technologies, which means there’s likely lots of opportunities for job seekers with these skills or interested in this industry,” according to official notes from the study as cited by the online publication the Daily Hodl.
The crypto market doesn’t look its best today, with most coins trading in the red, but analysts such as Josh Rager believe that this is a natural correction following the recent surge in prices that we’ve witnessed.
