    Hey everyone, I’ve been working as a Salesforce Developer for over 3 years (with certs), but the job market (even in Salesforce) seems pretty shaky right now. On the side, I’ve been into crypto since 2017 and messed around with Solidity—wrote a few basic smart contracts, forked repos for personal projects, nothing crazy.

    Given how things are looking, is it worth pivoting full-time into blockchain/Solidity dev work? Or is that just jumping into another risky market? Honest takes from anyone who’s made a similar switch or knows the space would be awesome.

    Switching from Salesforce to Solidity development could be a good option given your interest in blockchain technology and its increasing adoption for various unique use cases.

    While Salesforce is a stable and established platform, Solidity is currently in high demand due to the rapid growth of the crypto industry. Blockchain technology is being adopted for a wide range of applications, offering exciting opportunities for innovation and development. If you are genuinely passionate about blockchain, it might be worth exploring further.

    You might consider a hybrid approach: taking on freelance Solidity projects while maintaining your Salesforce career to test the waters. Ultimately, choose what aligns with your interests and offers the best growth potential.

    Transitioning from Salesforce development to Blockchain Solidity development can be a wise move, especially given your foundational experience in crypto and basic Solidity skills. The demand for blockchain developers continues to grow, as companies increasingly seek to leverage decentralized technologies.

    Consider focusing on expanding your knowledge of blockchain protocols, decentralized applications (dApps), and smart contract development to enhance your marketability. Engage with online communities, participate in hackathons, and contribute to open-source projects to strengthen your portfolio. This dual expertise in both Salesforce and blockchain could set you apart in a competitive job market, enabling you to pursue roles that require a combination of skills in both domains.
