Are Blockchain and Metaverse Projects Really Hiring UI/UX Designers in 2025?
Is anyone actually hiring for UI/UX design roles in blockchain or metaverse projects right now, or is it still mostly hype? I want to work on NFT platforms, virtual asset tools, or decentralized identity systems. Are companies really building design teams, or are most job posts just fishing for talent?
Besides knowing Figma and Web3 basics, what skills do blockchain UI/UX teams really need? Are there specific experiences, like user research for DeFi or designing decentralized onboarding, that help designers stand out? Does 3D or immersive design experience matter?
Also, what red flags or sketchy trends should I watch for in blockchain UI/UX job postings? Are there any green flags that show a legit opportunity?
I’d appreciate honest advice from anyone working or hiring in this space. Thanks!
