Today, we’re diving into the latest career opportunities shaping the next generation of the internet. Explore emerging roles in blockchain, advertising, and more. Plus, hear what our community is buzzing about and stay updated with fresh insights from the Ad Tech and Web3 spaces.

Web3 has arrived, unleashing a tidal wave of new career paths and bringing fresh job opportunities! From Web3 Data Scientists crunching numbers to reveal hidden insights to Smart Contract Developers/Engineers architecting self-executing smart contracts, the opportunities are exploding.

Don’t miss the Community Managers who build and maintain vibrant user communities, while Marketing Managers craft strategies to reach blockchain audiences. While Blockchain Legal Consultants navigate the regulatory maze, offering guidance on compliance and intellectual property, there are ample opportunities for those willing to adapt, learn and exercise their critical thinking grey cells.

To succeed in these roles, you’ll need a fusion of these with hard skills like expertise in blockchain development frameworks (e.g., Truffle, Hardhat), proficiency in programming languages (e.g., JavaScript, Python), and a grasp of decentralised technologies.

  4. The UK government has introduced a bill to clarify the legal status of cryptocurrencies. The proposed legislation would create a new property category, identifying digital assets as “things.” This would provide legal protection for owners and companies against fraud and scams, and help judges deal with complex cases involving digital holdings. The bill aims to keep pace with evolving technologies and maintain the UK’s position as a global leader in cryptoassets. More information.
