So true @craig-grant thank you for enlightening us. I think we will see blockchain programmers being on par with CCNA trained professionals. Why a large difference for blockchain programmers? I think it comes down to the fact that it is new technology and to compound the issue - there are not that many people who really understand how to program blockchain based.

These guys and gals with experience then are limited and makes for such huge payoffs in salary.

I have a friend on facebook who is a database specialized programmer and after chatting to him and seeing such a negative view over bitcoin, I had to stop letting him know about further updates about bitcoin! This shows how hard it is to find good blockchain specialized programmers, you still got people out there - highly technical people who don't see the value, and the ones who see the value are commanding salaries like this.

It is definetly a bitcoin boom like when the internet had its boom before it had its bust before it stabalized to an internet we know today.

Because of this, companies are rushing in to be sure to secure there place and it is a scary place. Some things that are old and established could not be there in tomorrow, like how Lycos and Altavista search engines lol before Google.

Another area is as @thefan83 says cryptocurrency tax specialists because there are people out there who have become rich.

Like this post that you done @craig-grant

Create a great day,
