Apple loses staff because of cryptocurrencies

Apple and other tech companies are now fighting against crypto startups!

The world of cryptocurrencies continues to generate followers and not only to invest but also to work. As a result, hundreds of people have risked quitting their jobs in the world’s most valuable companies to take up new challenges in startups dedicated to the operation of this property.

According to a New York Times publication, executives and engineers are leaving companies like Apple, Amazon, Google and Meta for crypto startups

. And it is that the demand does not stand out. According to the report, this year more than $ 28 billion was invested in crypto and blockchain startups across the world.

Cryptocurrencies are playing tricks on the biggest tech companies.

One of the most emblematic cases is that of Vice President of the Cloud Computing Unit of Amazon Sandy Carter, Who left his post this month to join an encryption technology company

, whose link he shared on his LinkedIn profile. All without imagining that more than 300 employees from other companies would apply for different jobs within the same one.

However, and beyond the economic potential of this technology, Carter shared that people were interested in working at crypto companies drawn to the spirit of the web3, which strives to decentralize power and decision-making. An alternative to how Google and Facebook came to dominate the internet by absorbing users’ personal data to sell targeted ads.

While no known executive has yet joined the trend from Apple, it may be a move that is not lacking too many. And is that, as CEO Tim Cook said, transit through this technology is not yet part of the plans of the bitten apple company, leaving no alternative to those interested in this world.
