Anyone wanna share how they got up to speed with Blockchain, how long it took, and the difficulty of it (starting fresh)?

Just curious, as it still feels like a fresh "industry"

Our consulting, essentials, and developer badges are pretty good courses if you use them correctly.

I mean to follow the course, do all the labs, then use them as inspiration to continue tinkering with blockchain

YouTube. Podcasts

Stay away from anything created by a bank, not blockchain.

I joined a crypto development team anonymously. Many are desperate for help and run by inexperienced teams that do not have the skills or experience we do in this industry for delivering high quality commercial software. First started making trivial code contributions. Quickly demonstrated my skill set and wrote them a much better whitepaper than they were capable of. Became a core developer. Now I lead the development team.

I’m leaving consulting for full time crypto work soon. Yes, in the middle (hopefully the end, but we’ll see) of a bear market. Demand for these skills are plentiful, no travel required other than conferences, and I love the work. If it doesn’t work out, I’m pretty sure consulting will still be there for me.

M/SM and above, why do you label a meeting as “touch point” or ask if you can have a “quick chat” when it’s something serious? Millennials like us always assume we’re about to get fired - I actually have been laid off in a meeting with that title. But at my new job, my boss asked for a “quick chat” to literally ask me to change the title of a meeting and then chat about christmas. Now that I’m in management, I want to understand it better.
