Opinion: a top on-chain analyst can land a high-paying job at the click of a finger

The market shows high demand for on-chain analytics services, especially those specializing in cybersecurity. In an interview with ForkLog, Mark Letsyuk, head of analytics and research at HAPI Labs, said.

“We are seeing an incredibly high demand. It seems to me that the security-related field is simply at its peak.” the expert stressed.

According to him, due to a talent shortage, even juniors are being hired for enormous sums.

“If someone understands blockchain, how to interpret transactions and read them in Bitcoin, he will land a job with a click of a finger,” said Letsyuk.

According to him, the average salary of an on-chain analyst is rising, though its size varies greatly across regions. In Eastern Europe, you can find “a very capable professional for $2,500-3,000 per month”.

“As for opportunities: if you’re already at the top, if there is some experience, not necessarily seven years or more, then monsters like Chainalysis and CipherTrace are willing to pay $12,000 or more a month in the United States,” he added.
