Bitcoin Jobs

Bitcoin jobs

Bitcoin reached a small but significant milestone this week. It has nothing to do with the price, there isn’t a new update to the protocol, and a bitcoin startup didn’t break the record for venture capital funding.

Notably, reddit’s r/Jobs4Bitcoin subreddit . Hardly earth-shattering news, but this modest achievement is an indicator of a broadening pool of jobs that not only pay in bitcoin, but are within the bitcoin industry itself.

Most of these jobs, according to statistics derived from LinkedIn, are in the US. Despite the hype about regulation in the US killing bitcoin innovation, America is indisputably the preeminent breeding ground for tech entrepreneurship, and that applies as much to digital currencies as it does to any other technology sector.

California heartland

A Google search of LinkedIn profiles associated with bitcoin, which is arguably a close approximation to the number of professionals active in the bitcoin sector, returns 7, 560 results.

Taking a sample of around 500 shows that around 50% of those professionals are in the US. The UK and Canada are a distant 2nd and 3rd at 9% and 8% respectively. It is worth noting that this method of measuring bitcoin jobs is obviously skewed to users of LinkedIn and will exclude places that use non-Latin alphabets, such as China.

Within the US itself, California – or, more specifically, Silicon Valley – would be the obvious location of the majority of these bitcoin professionals. And the data bears that out: 40% of those bitcoin professionals from LinkedIn are in California. New York is in second place and Texas is in third.

But as well as the people who work full-time on bitcoin or bitcoin-related businesses, bitcoin is now being used as a payment option for casual work contracted out to strangers online. As bitcoin is still a fairly niche currency in terms of the types of people who use it, this work tends to be programming.

One site that exclusively lists jobs that pay in digital currency is Coinality. Since its launch last year, almost 1, 000 jobs have been listed there.

Judging by the 200+ jobs currently listed on Coinality, around half are freelance positions but sizeable proportion (29%) are full-time jobs.

The general trend of the increasing number of jobs that pay in bitcoin can be seen in the above graph from indeed.com. The volume is still minuscule when compared to the whole, but it is increasing quickly.

Bitcoin lies debunked here...

No transaction costs - lie, double lie as you have to convert it to REAL currency.
anonymous - lie, the blockchain has a complete history
frees you from central bankers - lie, a very small number have the majority of the bitcoins (sound familiar), oh and BTW you still need REAL CURRENCY.
bitcoin is as revolutionary as the internet - ridiculous, but lets hope this is false the internet has trashed millions of jobs and has people wasting enormous amounts of time fapping to nothing.

Bitcoin sucks and was designed you make you act like a dumbass.

You don't have to invest ALL your money. In fact, please don't.
If you got a couple hundred to "play with," why not?
If you don't, certainly you could scrape up $11 or $12 bucks, the cost of a cheap lunch, to buy 0.01 BTC.
If you can't do that, you shouldn't be here, wasting your time. You should be working two or three jobs, especially during the holidays.

I actually come here less after all this BitCoin

Flight from Capital.
1. Art
2. Land
3. Gold
4. Antiquities, classics cars
5. Stock Market.
I put art first, because at times of war land can be confiscated, etc. Shit even if you live in a cheap area and mega mart comes along and tells your mayor how much more he will pay taxes for your land and the jobs they would create, through eminant domain, you will learn that your property is really the peoples. Anyone who ever tried to insure or do shit realizes they put more and more restrictions on landowners. Got help you if they find a spotted hooted owl or something

The farang/bunky split personality has some

Points where a good therapist might be able to merge the two and cure him/it...
they both agree inflation is understated.
they both think living standards are improving.
they both don't work but claim MAD IT skills.
they both post deceptive statics in order to prove up=down.
i don't buy the fake posts where they disagree about bitcoin volatility, or the one about economic growth and jobs... it's the same guy.
