Has blockchain technology become obsolete?

Career Change Inquiry

Is it a wise idea to pivot from traditional software development to focus on blockchain core development? I’m eager to learn about the current employment climate in the blockchain sector. While the field continues to generate buzz and interest, I remain uncertain whether such a career shift would be beneficial, especially given my established role as a Software Development Engineer at a major firm. Any insights on the long-term viability of blockchain careers would be appreciated.

hey ava, i kinda feel that blockchain is still very much in the game. i mean, sure, it doesn’t solve every problem under the sun and there are plenty of buzzwords floating around, but there’s still so many layers that are evolving, like smart contracts and decentralized finance. im just wondering if the career shift might be more about riding the wave of emerging tech rather than just chasing a fad. have you thought about what aspects of blockchain you’re most drawn to? maybe the idea of programmable money or enhancing security in digital transactions? i’d love to hear what realms in the blockchain world are catching your eye and how you see it playing into the wider tech ecosystem over the next few years.
