LinkedIn data shows that the global demand for blockchain talents has increased from 20 15, and it has exploded from 20 16 to 20 17. From the perspective of talent supply, the industry with the fastest growth in blockchain talent demand in recent years is the computer software industry, followed by the financial services and insurance industries, and other industries have not yet produced large-scale talent demand.
LinkedIn data shows that from 20 15 to 20 17, the number of talents with blockchain-related skills on LinkedIn files has increased by nearly 19 times, but the proportion of global AI talents on LinkedIn platform is not high, only about 2%. From the global distribution of such talents, the United States accounts for 25%, followed by India and Britain, accounting for 7% and 6% respectively. The base of domestic related talents is relatively small, mainly concentrated in Beijing and Shanghai. The industry believes that the most popular programming languages for blockchain development are C++ and Go, and senior talents who are proficient in cryptography and distributed computing also have inherent advantages for blockchain development.
Wang Di, vice president of technology of LinkedIn China, said, "Blockchain is a new technology model, driven by the technology community, and it is still in the early stage of rapid development and has not yet been completed. Blockchain development needs decentralized thinking, practical application development experience and fast learning ability. In layman's terms, blockchain development needs' soft skills' and AI needs' hard power'. "
"At present, talents with blockchain thinking and application development experience are very scarce." Wang Di believes that "enterprises interested in developing blockchain concepts and exploring business opportunities need talents such as project leaders, and also need to establish longer-term strategic goals, cultivate and reserve more young technical talents, so as to seize opportunities when the industry welcomes real enthusiasm. In addition, we can also cooperate with the United States, Britain, India and other countries in talent and technology. These countries have more talents with blockchain development experience than domestic ones. "
At the end of 20 17, Deloitte released the blockchain technology and project analysis based on Github, a global software collaboration platform. At present, there are 86,034 blockchain projects on GitHub, but only 8% have been maintained and 5% have survived. The average life span of the projects is only 1.22 years.
