Blockchain Jobs and Cryptocurrency Jobs in the UK:
The Crypto Market in the UK
As the crypto and digital assets sector continues to gain tremendous popularity amongst consumers and large financial institutions, regulatory frameworks are evolving at a rapid pace to keep up with the increased interest.
According to reports, the crypto/digital assets market is still on its aggressive growth trajectory: about 9.8 million people in the UK - the equivalent of 19% of the country's entire population - owned cryptoassets in 2021.
These reports also state that by 2030, up to 20% of the global economy infrastructure will likely be reliant on blockchain-based systems.
From a hiring perspective, the rapid growth of the sector has translated into increased movement from professionals within the industry.
With more and more crypto firms entering the market and enticing top digital assets talent with attractive compensation packages, blockchain professionals find themselves leaving their role more frequently than their traditional financial services counterparts.
Several candidates are jumping between positions in a given year - some of them up to two to three times.

New York City
New York is known as the cultural, financial, and media capital of the world. Home to the headquarters of the United Nations, its residents speak over 800 languages and over 60 million people visit the city every year to take it all in.
New York is home to Wall Street and the two largest stock exchanges in the world and it’s known as the most financially powerful city in the world with more billionaires in residence than any other city. For over 200 years, the "Big Apple" has been the centre of opportunities where dreams and accomplishments can be big, and is known for it fast pace, which is unrivalled.
Getting around
Put a New York City map in front of you, and you will see how easy it is to get around town. Most of Manhattan's neighbourhoods are after all quite self-descriptive: Upper East Side, Upper West Side, and so on.
Commuting to word can be as easy as putting on a pair of walking shoes: many New Yorkers walk to their destination. If walking isn't your forte, public transit is another great option - or hailing one of its famous yellow cabs. New York is known for its inexpensive and environmentally-friendly rail system, or "subway".
