Demand is small and concentrated in Web3 products: ERC-721 and ERC-1155 smart contracts, marketplaces, plus design and product roles. Most of the demand comes from Fullstack, Blockchain and Product roles. It most often appears next to Blockchain, Web3 and DeFi. 57% of the postings allow fully remote work.
