Wanted: blockchain developer who can do everything.

<p>No, this is not me advertising an open position.</p> <p>These are the kinds of job adverts I'm seeing in my inbox these days.</p> <p>The salary ranges may be more realistic than they were three months ago, but the job descriptions have expanded to the point where they are longer than my resume. &nbsp;And there are probably only ten people on the planet who could both do the job, and who would want to.</p> <p>You can listen to the episode, or read this summary: &nbsp;</p> <p>Offering half a million dollars for a job that requires the applicant to a) have spent a decade researching and hacking away at blockchain programming, so they can b) help you recruit a team of blockchain developers, and then manage them, is going to be hard to fill. &nbsp;Because people who have done the former, are probably not going to want to do the latter.</p>
