Probably most of the builders and investors in cryptocurrency-related businesses and platforms mostly have one thing in common — an entrepreneurial background; so probably an entrepreneurship course? Can't say for sure though as I haven't taken such course.

Even if you don't want to focus on the nontechnical side though, getting the technical basics will definitely benefit A LOT. I personally put myself in this category too(with more focus on the economic/business side), and not like super technically inclined like some of the people here; but I think I know enough of the technicals to explain things to the laypeople.

Also, not economics in general, but probably also look into Austrian economics. Check out Mises: https://mises.org/

I'm fairly entrepreneurial don't worry - I've been doing side hustles since high school.

And yeah, I know the basics as well. I wrote for news outlets for years - explaining things in layman terms was like 95% my job LOL. I'm working on doing a bootcamp of some kind just so I can get into more technical writing.

Ah Austrian economics - thanks for the link.

I'd have no idea what to expect when applying for one of these jobs, I've seen @welsh giving information on some jobs like with blockchain explorers so it might be an idea to hit him up (I think it was him anyway).

Continental Europe (the part of Europe that doesn't have the UK) is probably a good place to look as well as South Korea and Japan if you want a masters in a blockchain application project. If it's Andreas Antopolopos I'm not sure how much he knows technically (could be completely wrong) but if you're interested in applications you could check innovative chains like ethereum to see if they have anyone interesting (on their github who also teaches) ...

If there are companies you don't like also they might be good to contact and ask for a recommendation as what they'd expect (like some banks or medical firms) because their information may be valuable and you don't have to deal with them again unless they ask you to and you think it looks like a good option.

Or you could talk to companies you do like since their hr probably changes every so often anyway... And instead of going down thst way you could see if they have anything in asset management or similar and try to work your way across.

In an innovative secrot I don't think you can get a job without talking to those hiring for what they'd be interested in. A lot of people hire based on very specific skills and an ability to mould people to what they'd like them to focus on.

I'll have to find this @welsh character you speak of.

And yeah, I literally talked about South Korea in the OP. Thanks for the other places - specifically continental Europe.

Asking HR is good too.

Thanks
