Hello,

This project looks very interesting and the team seems to have the requisite experience to be able to execute this plan. However, I am curious why the target market is exclusively looking to students? I am sure there are freelancers with nice resumes and portfolio's of work who would also be interested in utilizing this service to make some side money/continue build their resume.

Anyways I suppose a succinct way of asking this question is, why limit the market to students? Thank you for your response!

Looking forward to grabbing some STU

I love this question, it is an important one!
We can all agree that Blockchain tech has some major problems: https://cointelegraph.com/news/major-challenges-to-blockchain-mainstream-adoption-industry-view

We are blockchain & bitcoin enthusiasts. We want to see it go mainstream!
That is why we chose to do it through education, giving the opportunity for more than 300 million students in India (for example) to get some crypto hands-on experience.
We see it as focussing on the right segment, rather than limiting ourselves.

The students segment nowadays holds the sharpest minds of the next generation, but they don't have a true solution for their problems - Experience & Cash.
On the other hand, HR firms finding it hard to recruit students, meaning they don't earn money from that segment.
We understood the blockchain problems.
All the mentioned above are BIG PROBLEMS and www.bitJob.io will solve them.
bitJob will actually create a new revenue model for the "Old World" HR industry using WIN WIN situations!

💵🎓 bitJob will create revenues from a segment that's hungry for a solution NOW 💵🎓

With that business model we can differentiate ourselves from our competitors.
Freelancers today can get work at Fiverr, Upwork and even Ethlance if they look for Blockchain oriented employers.
Don't understand me wrong, In the future we do plan on creating several collaborations with relevant freelancers marketplaces...

But first let's deal with millions of students, SMB & SME, globally!
