In the 21 year wave of simultaneous blessing of Meta Universe and Web3, a large number of friends around me who used to work on the Internet and VC went to the currency circle to join the revolution, but now they have almost left. They also want to live in the currency circle and wait for the next cycle to come, but the main problem is that there is nothing to do. They can't even find a job to earn a living. In the currency circle, there is only trade all the strength to support hundreds of thousands of employees. In addition, there is no job market of a little scale. According to my understanding, if he can support 10 full-time employees in any project, my mother, it is no longer possible.
The cryptocurrency industry is an industry without an industrial chain, where transactions are just transactions. Without an industrial chain, there is naturally no job market.
The longer the industrial chain of an industry, the more formats it can accommodate, and the more roles it can play in profit distribution, which can generate more employment opportunities. A real estate industry can simultaneously support a large number of upstream and downstream practitioners such as steel, cement, building materials, transportation, home appliances, sales, and property management.
Even though many people are now clamoring that AI will make everyone unemployed, with AI's human efficiency reaching up to 100 people per person, there are still upstream and downstream industries such as data annotation and power facilities.
What is the industry chain in the cryptocurrency circle? Or, if you come to the cryptocurrency industry to find a job, where else can you go besides the exchange? The project team can also go, regardless of whether it is reliable or not, it simply cannot accommodate so many people.
There are about 400 projects on Binance's spot market now, and on average, each project has 50 full-time employees, which is quite impressive, with only 20000 people. In addition, the exchange can absorb more than 20000 people, so the entire industry may only have 50000 effective employees.
If an industry has nothing to do except for transactions and no other scenarios, and the industry chain is too short or even non-existent, where will the stupid money we expect to take over come from?
Although the concepts of DAO, DID, blockchain games, decentralized social networking, network state data sovereignty, and so on may seem foolish, naive, or even ridiculous now, these things are really expanding the industry chain of the cryptocurrency circle and have solidly absorbed many high-quality talents from Ivy League C9.
Although the cryptocurrency industry may just be a big PVP casino for raising pranks, do you want to be a pawn in Las Vegas or go to Silicon Valley to change the world?
