    I’ve been a business content writer for 8 years, and I’m thinking about pivoting into blockchain writing. I know the basics of blockchain pretty well, but I’m not entirely sure how to make the switch. Has anyone else made the jump from general biz writing to a niche like this?

    Should I start by creating a portfolio focused on crypto/blockchain topics, or is networking with people in the industry more critical upfront? Also, is freelancing a good way to break in, or are there better paths?

    I don’t want my existing experience to go to waste, but I’m not 100% clear on how to repurpose those skills here. Any tips from people who’ve done this before?

    Thanks in advance!

    To dive into a blockchain content writer career, start by building a strong portfolio that highlights your blockchain expertise. Focus on creating well-researched articles, whitepapers, and case studies that demonstrate your understanding of blockchain technology and its applications.

    Networking is key. Connect with blockchain professionals, join industry forums, and attend relevant events to build relationships and stay informed about the latest trends. Consider contributing to blockchain-focused publications or blogs to gain visibility and establish credibility.

    Make sure to adapt your writing to cater to different audiences, from technical experts to general readers. This versatility will help you effectively communicate complex concepts.

    Also, leverage your background in business writing by exploring how blockchain impacts various industries. This way, you can blend your existing skills with your new focus, creating a unique niche that showcases both your business acumen and blockchain knowledge.

    Hey! You're in a really good spot with all your writing experience and understanding of blockchain. To make the transition, I’d say definitely start by building a portfolio with blockchain-related content—maybe write about trends, explain tech in simple terms, or even case studies. Networking is key too, so connect with blockchain professionals on LinkedIn or Twitter.

    Freelance gigs are a great way to get some real-world experience, so go for those when you can. Your ability to tell stories will help a lot in breaking down complex blockchain concepts. It’s all about combining your current skills with this new field. Good luck!
