    A career in blockchain requires mastering the fundamentals first. One of the biggest mistakes newcomers make is jumping into hot trends like NFTs or DeFi without fully understanding the core principles of blockchain technology.

    It’s crucial to focus on the basics—consensus mechanisms, cryptography, and smart contracts—before moving to advanced concepts. Another mistake is thinking blockchain is just about coding; it involves economics, governance, and security.

    Many also expect quick success, but blockchain is a rapidly evolving field, and building a solid career takes time and patience. Keep learning and stay committed for the long haul.

    Starting in blockchain can feel exciting but presents unique challenges. Many beginners make avoidable mistakes that hinder their growth in the field.

    First, some focus too narrowly on trending skills, like smart contracts, without understanding core blockchain concepts. Build a solid foundation in blockchain basics, consensus mechanisms, cryptography, and decentralized systems. A broad base prepares you for shifts in the field.

    Next, neglecting networking and collaboration is a common misstep. Blockchain is highly community-driven. Engaging with others, joining forums, contributing to open-source projects, and attending events enhances knowledge and opens career doors.

    Also, stay informed. Blockchain technology changes fast, so continuous learning is vital. Follow credible sources, join hackathons, and stay aware of shifts in regulations and standards.

    Finally, don’t view blockchain as a solution for every problem. Understand where it truly adds value. This practical approach builds credibility and makes skills more marketable.

    Approaching a blockchain career with a strong foundation, openness to connect, and readiness to adapt creates a solid start. These habits set up a successful and rewarding journey.
