How to Become a Blockchain Specialist and Where is the Profession Required?

Bitcoin and Blockchain-related jobs are becoming increasingly popular today. That’s why the issue of a relevant education is becoming a topic of interest as well.

No one would argue that bitcoin and blockchain are becoming more and more widespread today. There are new solutions, new fields and new inventions applying the technology, and thereby, creating the need for professional developers, market specialists and many others.

As the industry is quite young, there has been a lack of experienced and educated specialists in the field, as it was simply impossible to obtain the relevant education anywhere. The leading cryptocurrency and blockchain professionals known to us at present are self-educated, driven by passion and enthusiasm for their work.

Kwhcoin: Cryptocurrency as a Liberation Technology

Kwhcoin is a blockchain based solution for a cost effective and network incentive based platform to integrate renewable energy and distributed energy resources into the grid. More importantly Kwhcoin team is developing a model to compensate the value of distributed energy resources at the edges of the grid transitioning to an advanced energy network that can be accessed by all with no barriers to inclusion.

The energy sector is in its most significant transition since the inception of the electricity grid. The United States is served by an extraordinarily complex and effective electric system with fossil fuel generation of electricity at strategically positioned centralized plants serving as the core reactor. The three major parts of the system — generation, transmission, and distribution — work together to bring reliable and affordable electricity to virtually everyone in America, thus providing a service that is essential to the nation’s security, economic development and social connectivity. However this is very expensive and carbon intensive at all generation and distribution points and virtually removes all of us from access to the value chain. There are many estimates but McKinsey’s values the current (depreciated) value of the U.S. electric grid, comprising power plants, wires, transformers and poles, is roughly US $1.5 to $2 trillion and the replacement costs would EXCEED $5 TRILLION dollars. The environmental impacts of such a large investment in fossil fuel energy sources are beginning to reflect in natural environment and geopolitical turmoil.

Bitcoin Price Analysis: BTC Coming Down from its All-Time Heights

Bitcoin reached its all-time high of $7,617 on Sunday, November 5, due to the influence of CME Group’s announcement. It proved to be a quite lasting benefit to the market. However, by the end of the day, the price had decreased to $7,175.

Moreover, some experts believe the price will become even more volatile due to the increasing uncertainty of SegWit fork influence.

Daniel Kim, Head of Growth at SFOX, an enterprise-grade trading platform with algorithmic trading tools for businesses and traders to buy and sell bitcoins, former Director of Institutional Sales at Gemini Exchange and assistant of Vice President at BNP Paribas, stated that “overnight we started to see some pullback, and he wouldn't be surprised to see this continue for a few more days.”

Reshaping Peer-to-peer Lending with Crypto Assets

Peer-to-peer and marketplace lending had been developing exponentially in the wake of the 2008-2009 financial crisis. Alternative lending platforms, such as Lending Club, Zopa, and Prosper, came as an answer to credit terms tightening. Having less access to affordable loans, while still having huge demand for these kinds of financial services, borrowers needed a new solution. And peer-to-peer lending eventually eliminated the middlemen.

In the meantime, the burst of blockchain technology led to another revolution in fintech. And it seems that these two fintech revolutions have finally found a way to interact and enrich each other, providing new possibilities both to investors and borrowers.
The Bitbond, BTC Jam, and BTC POP platforms were pioneers in the market of crypto lending. From that time forward, it can be clearly seen that blockchain and crypto assets usage in p2p lending is stepping up. The congruence of the proven peer-to-peer lending business model and possibilities of blockchain seems to be a solid base for advanced financial services. What does it mean for investors and borrowers, how does it affect global economy, and how can crypto assets possibly reshape the existing peer-to-peer lending market?
