In the past few years, we saw an accelerating growth and adoption of blockchain technology. Coinmarketcap shows that in 2022 the two biggest cryptocurrencies - Bitcoin and Ethereum - hit a total market capitalization of more than $1 trillion. The continuous growth is accompanied by the trend of workers moving from traditional web2 to web3 companies, as they see this opportunity to be at the forefront of the hottest industry while getting a significant salary boost according to Business Insider.
This called for a significant demand for blockchain professionals. Unfortunately, it is difficult for both talents and employers. Web3 talents face difficulties finding networking and job opportunities in the blockchain industry. They also lack the formal recognition and practical experience to participate in the ecosystem fully. Therefore, EkoLance founded a platform to connect web3 newcomers with crypto companies that see a great need for them.
EkoLance aims to solve two major problems. On the one hand, web3 newcomers or web2 transitioners find it hard to enter the space. On the other hand, the problem of financial/educational inclusion persists specifically in third-world countries. EkoLance solves both problems by facilitating a platform for financial and educational inclusion while being the bridge for web3 talents and web3 companies.
Here is how EkoLance lowers the barrier for both talents and companies:
Take a look at how EkoLance empowers and bridges web3 professionals with potential employers:
