HR Season is now in full swing: the highest salaries in blockchain
Do you know which city offers the highest salaries for blockchain specialists?
We are not surprised by the fact that it is the most popular IT harbour, the very heart of the Silicon Valley, also the city with the highest rent in the world (no wonder) — and yes, we’re talking about San Francisco. The average salary for a blockchain developing specialist there is as high as $110,509. We hope it is enough to pay the rent, though.
According to the Blockchain 2018 Salary Report by Devsalary, blockchain development has topped the list of priority skills for computer programmers. By the end of 2017 blockchain engineering took second place among the most in-demand skills on the global labor market, with specialists in robotics being on top of that list.

“The proportion of average salaries here follows a regular IT trend — comments Tokenbox CTO Max Lukutin. — IT salaries usually vary within 40 percent, thus the difference between SF and Hong Kong here is pretty much understandable in term of geographical factors. Let’s not forget that Google can offer up to $180–190K. As for the high demand, it is also closely related to the ICO boom of the last couple years. The demand boomed instantly, while the industry wasn’t really ready for that and couldn’t provide suitable specialists. The thing is, a well-qualified developer who works with smart contracts obtain a very high level of responsibility. The risks are extremely high, and we all remember the infamous DAO hack, which mostly happened because of the weakness of the smart contract”.
