Hey, I always wanted to work for bitcoin or be a blockchain developer. I don't really know yet but I want to have a career oriented to bitcoin. Hodler here and now that I'm going to college this upcoming year I wanted to know what's the best thing to major in in order to get into the bitcoin field? I got admitted to honors applied math at my state uni and wondered if I should maybe change it to something else or have a couple minors in fintech and cs or even double major. I just needed more ideas on this. Thanks!

The bitcoin developer community is not particularly corporate. If you learn how to read/write code and program, you can participate. If what you deliver is good and stands out, who knows what is possible…
Flat Earth Studies
Applied Math
Applied math is a solid choice. Pair it with CS, electrical engineering, or finance depending on whether you want to focus on software, infrastructure, or markets.
Bitcoin careers aren’t *just* blockchain developer jobs. Mining/operator work is another real path, giving hands-on exposure to power, hardware, networking, uptime, and the economics behind the system.
Pick the path that gets you closest to real skills and real infrastructure.
Gender studies and lesbian dance theory double major
Don’t do that
