    The path to become a Blockchain Developer

    Posted: 22 Feb 2018 09:54 PM PST

    Blockchain developers are in hot demand. In fact, the demand for competent blockchain developers right now far outweighs the supply, with reported starting salary offers ranging anywhere from $180k-$250k.

    Whether your interest is in the generous compensation, or you're generally excited about the technology, there's a lot to be eager about.

    But the roadmap to becoming a developer in this new space is hazy and unclear, even to a lot of seasoned developers. This post aims to put together a mega-list of organized resources to help you begin your journey as a blockchain developer.

    Blockchain Development for Beginners: Getting Started, and Prerequisites

    Before diving in, you should develop a solid understanding of some of the underlying principals, mainly: what is a blockchain, and what can you do with it?

    What is a Blockchain?

    A blockchain is basically just a decentralized database or a distributed ledger.

    That's a pretty straightforward answer. Rest assured there is much more complexity under the surface. IBM has taken an interest recently in blockchain development and has put together some great docs that make a good starting point to dive in:

    Making a Blockchain

    Once you feel like you're ready to get your hands dirty, there are a number of articles and posts dedicated to helping you further your knowledge by actually building your own blockchain. Here are a few great articles I'd recommend taking a look through:

    Additional Tutorials, Courses & Videos

    Ethereum, Smart Contracts and Apps

    The development of virtual machines like Ethereum has opened the gates for developers, creating an accessible way for you or me to build our own smart contracts / decentralized applications.

    Solidity - a programming language used to develop smart contracts and decentralized applications to run in the ethereum universe. Syntactically, it's similar to javascript.

    This needs to be said. If you are a US Resident or Citizen. DO NOT invest in Venezuelan crypto. Do not touch it on exchanges or have it in your trading history. Not even with VPNs.

    Posted: 22 Feb 2018 07:31 AM PST

    I've seen Americans posting about investing in this---

    The US government has set up warnings that they have undisclosed severe consequences and will prosecute any American investing in anything Crypto from Venezuela.

    This is because it goes against sanctions against Venezuela.

    When you go against Government money you're gonna have a bad time.

    This is what Coin Market Cap looked like one year ago.

    Posted: 22 Feb 2018 11:55 AM PST

    Crypto market cap is 400 billion. Apple is 875 billion.

    Posted: 22 Feb 2018 10:00 PM PST

    Still lots of rooms to grow. US stock market alone has a market cap of 30 trillion. Crypto is merely 1.33% of it as of now.

    Don't compare market cap to GDP and other irreverent stuff like that. Do you know US stock market is worth more than the US GDP?

    We are not going to see 100x this year in market cap but 5x is definitely possible, and if you pick the right coins, 10x.
