In some vacancies, those interested could apply for a total remote job. The vacancies arrive from all over the nation, not just from capitals.
The United States of America, which appears to be distancing itself from China’s measures and its Bitcoin ban, is experiencing an increase in the number of jobs in the crypto space. More companies are willing to hire new specialists in this sector in response to the growing market.
Bloomberg started a compilation with the assistance of LinkedIn, regarding the number of vacancies related to the cryptocurrency space that get currently revealed on this social network. One of the results that this study revealed is that big capital cities, such as New York and San Francisco, two cities that have historically brought together companies in technology and finance, now seem to be losing their power.
Miami, where its mayor has openly proclaimed himself a bitcoin enthusiast, has begun to show companies looking for employees within the crypto-assets sector. As the Bloomberg note reports, it seems to be a symptom of “decentralization” in the cryptocurrency jobs.
Vacancies for Experts in Solidity
The study was in charge of reviewing vacancies that included various keywords such as Bitcoin, Blockchain, Ethereum, even on the programming language of smart contracts called Solidity.
Austin is among the cities that are showing the highest growth in the field of cryptocurrency. Elon Musk, billionaire tycoon and character who has active participation in the Bitcoin ecosystem on several occasions, has decided to move his Tesla car company to this city in Texas.
Along with Tesla, which has not yet decided if it will receive bitcoin as a means of payment again, several mining companies have begun to migrate their bases of operations in the state of Texas. Recently, various media outlets highlighted that the mining companies Bitdeer and Riot Blockchain are currently finding some obstacles in their way to consolidating their position in Rockdale, Texas.
Remote Work is Now a Possibility
COVID-19 has created new spaces for remote work or telework. According to recent data, right after the health crisis in the United States of America, at least 80% of companies, which opened temporary jobs during the pandemic, would keep this modus operandi.
Companies now focus on remote work no longer as a possibility but as a reality. Diogo Monito, the co-founder of the cryptocurrency and technology services company, Anchorage Digital, mentioned that cities and states with lower taxes, better infrastructure, and quick access to an international airport would receive many benefits from working remotely.
Umbrel, a company that focuses on the development of Umbrel OS, an operating system for managing Bitcoin nodes, recently revealed that it would be hiring new staff, and remote workers can get hired.
On the other hand, on LinkedIn and other job platforms, workers can discover interesting vacancies for remote work in the area of cryptocurrencies. However, it only remains to wait for how far the rise of cryptocurrency companies in the United States of America could go with this method.
