“The Bitcoin Effect on Tech Development: How Blockchain and Decentralization Are Affecting the Developer World”

Bitcoin has transformed not only the financial world but also opened new opportunities for developers. Since its creation in 2009, Bitcoin’s price has grown from mere cents to today’s value more than $89,000, underscoring its popularity and drawing global attention to blockchain technology.

Currently, Bitcoin’s market cap stands at $1.76 trillion, and its daily trading volume reaches $145.15 billion. These figures and the growing interest in cryptocurrencies open opportunities for developers to work with high-load decentralized systems and create applications that secure data, automate transactions, and manage digital assets.
These metrics and the rising interest in crypto create a demand for developers with specialized knowledge in cryptography and network technologies.

Every block on the blockchain must be tamper-proof, requiring high security standards from developers, which in turn influences programming practices and team structures.
