“Se busca experto en ‘blockchain’”: bancos, fintech y consultoras se disputan el talento cripto
Entidades como CaixaBank, Unicaja, Santander o TradeRepublic y empresas como EY buscan reforzar sus equipos ante el avance del mercado tokenizado y de los activos digitales
The demand for blockchain experts is increasing as banks, fintech companies and consultancies vie for the crypto talent pool. In popular imagination, blockchain experts are often associated with the image of crypto bros trading in the shadows of a garage, glued to multiple screens filled with indecipherable charts. However, this narrative is becoming outdated.
As banks, asset managers and financial institutions incorporate digital assets into their offerings, specialists in cryptocurrencies and blockchain have moved from being a niche profile to one of the most coveted in the financial sector. They are no longer only sought after by companies native to the ecosystem. Now, banks, fintech firms, neobanks and consultancies are all competing to attract professionals who can combine technological knowledge, finance and regulatory expertise.
With the investment in digital assets becoming more common and traditional finance advancing towards tokenized markets and blockchain integration in operations, the demand for such experts continues to grow.
