Bitget: Blockchain sector could unlock over 1 million new jobs by 2030

A recent report by Bitget estimates the rapid growth of blockchain adoption has the potential to create 1.5 million jobs by 2030, rivalling that of AI’s hiring boom. In Bitget’s latest report , the crypto exchange highlights the untapped potential behind the blossoming sector. As more major companies begin to lean towards integrating the technology into day-to-day operations, the firm believes it could transform from niche to necessity, creating jobs that were previously unheard of. The analysis reveals that while blockchain’s current job market has yet to match the explosive growth already achieved by the artificial intelligence sector, it still has the potential to unlock over 1 million new roles by 2030. At press time, the sector supports around 15,000 to 20,000 job openings globally, with 40% of them concentrated in North America, 35% in Asia-Pacific and 20% in Europe. Initially, a previous report published by Tiger Research predicted blockchain could reach 500,000 jobs by 2028. Meanwhile, AI currently contributes more than 1 million positions to the global job market. This largely due to the decades-spanning corporate investment and regulatory support garnered by the sector after it reached mainstream levels of adoption. Despite the gap in adoption rate between the two sectors, experts believe that the blockchain workforce is projected to grow from 300,000 over 1.5 million by 2030, indicating a five-fold increase in the span of just five years.

Emerging institutional adoption and regulatory clarity in particular could drive the sector forward into a hiring boom. Most recently, pilot projects launched by major traditional financial firms like JPMorgan’s Onyx and Visa’s integration with USDC ( USDC ) have indicated a shift toward institutional acceptance of blockchain technology. Not only that, clearer regulatory guidelines like the EU’s Markets in Crypto-Assets or MiCA and the U.S. SEC adopting a more friendly stance towards digital assets are already influencing blockchain-related hiring trends. CEO of Bitget, Gracy Chen, said the sector has the opportunity to redefine global hiring landscapes if it is given the chance to thrive under the right combination of regulation, education, and enterprise adoption. “Blockchain is where AI was a decade ago—a technology brimming with potential but awaiting its ‘big bang’ moment,” said Chen in her statement.
