It’s been about six months since I last posted here.
This was not a planned break. I was involved with two different startups in early 2023 and felt like I didn’t have the time and mindspace to keep “Conscious Crypto” up.
As the break continued, I realized that after six years “in crypto” I had begun to outgrow creating content for beginners, and wanted to get more involved in the Bitcoin community.
While I have been “a Bitcoiner” since the beginning, the crypto events of 2022 and the new narrative “Bitcoin, not crypto” also made me want to drop the word “crypto” in my business and fully concentrate on and “stand for” Bitcoin.
Introducing BITVOCATION: Your Bitcoin Career Compass
Since summer 2022, I have helped a number of people find work in this industry. And during the BTC Prague conference this year and in conversations with other Bitcoiners on the amazing Orange Pill App, I noticed how many Bitcoin enthusiasts want to find work in the space, but don’t know where to start.
This is how BITVOCATION was born, and the idea to support Bitcoiners in navigating the Bitcoin career landscape and finding their first job within the ecosystem.
At BITVOCATION you will hear from Bitcoiners who already work in the industry and learn valuable tips from them. Check out the first few interview with Jan from BitcoinerJobs below, if this is something you’re interested in. This is only phase 1. I do have more ideas for phase 2 and beyond :)
How to stay in touch
I am not sure yet where BITVOCATION will live and whether I will continue here on Substack. For now you can follow the project on Twitter and on YouTube. I will also be more active on LinkedIn, if you want to follow me there.
Thank you so much for your loyalty over the past few years. I know some of you have been with me for over ten years by now, through several pivots and shifts. It’s great to keep seeing some familiar names and faces, who keep growing with me.
Onwards and upwards,
