Ridgewood NJ, Since the pandemic we have seen a growing interest in remote jobs and preferences in working from home – particular among employees in the tech industry.
This trend seems to be particularly strong for the crypto space.
At Bankless Times we have looked at Google Trends data for the search term “remote crypto jobs” and here is what we found:
- Search interest increased from 14 in June 2021 to 100 in June 2022 – that’s a 614% rise in a year
- There was a peak in searches for “remote crypto jobs” in the days following June 2, 2022 when crypto platform Gemini’s announced it was cutting 10% of the workforce.
- Similarly, when Coinbase announced its plans to cut 18 percent of its total staff on June 13, 2022 the search index value peaked to 100 on that same day.
“Blockchain topped LinkedIn’s most in-demand hard skills and with the pandemic demonstrating that white-collar work can be done from anywhere, there has been an allied boom in interest from companies and potential employees for remote crypto jobs,” says Raj Kapoor, Chief Advisor at Acryptoverse.
