First of all it is necessary to know what Blockchain is, to simplify, that communication protocol that identifies a technology based on the logic of the distributed database i.e. a database in which data is stored on multiple computers connected to each other, called NODES.

It is therefore a public and shared register where each operation must be confirmed by all nodes through an encryption software to guarantee the security of the transactions.

Better to review the basics or for those who know nothing about it, the time has come to start understanding how Blockchain works.

Another important thing is the knowledge of programming languages.
It is clear that those who have a degree in computer science certainly have an advantage but today it is essential to always be up to date so a good course can be right for us.
One of the most used programming languages and similar to that used in Blockchain technology is definitely JAVASCRIPT. Better if we add also PHYTON and C++.
Currently the easiest and fastest way to acquire the right skills is to learn for yourself thanks to specialized blogs that make their skills available to everyone or but there are also many paid courses easily available on the web.

We talked about programming, cryptography and semantics but there are also professional figures who maintain their own role also in the Blockchain sector.
In addition to new specific professional figures, Professionals with digital skills specialized in Blockchain marketing are required.
Marketing will continue to play a large role in the "Blockchain Economy". It will always take someone able to create marketing plans, research potential markets and develop communication strategies to promote services and products only that it is Blockchain-based services and products.
