By now, you’ve improved your profile, built your portfolio, and collected proof of work and endorsements.
You’ve been operating like a professional, and - consciously or not - you’ve already begun thinking like a business.
Finding a job in Bitcoin is an entrepreneurial endeavor.
When you start thinking of your skills and talents as a service, of your CV as a portfolio, and view employers as potential clients, something shifts.
Suddenly, you’re not applying (= asking for permission) to work for someone anymore. You’re offering to add value.
Every interview or conversation you have, every post you make, every project you show, and every comment you leave is part of showing the world the value you can offer.
💡 The Mindset Shift
Stop waiting for the perfect opportunity to show up.
Start creating it — by showing people how you think, how you work, and what you stand for.
That’s what building in public means.
That’s what creating a brand means.
You don’t need a finished product.
You don’t need 10 years experience of working in Bitcoin.
You just need the courage to share small steps of what you’re doing right now.
🧩 Examples of Building in Public
It could be as simple as:
🧠 A new insight you had while learning about Bitcoin UX
✍️ A quote from a Bitcoin article that made you rethink something — plus your take on it
🛠️ A well-known Bitcoin fact, but presented in a way that helps new audiences understand it better (like this Instagram account targeting a female audience)
You don’t need to be an expert.
You just need to be visible while you grow.
🧭 Your Task for Today
👉 Post one thing publicly — today — that shows how you think or what you’re learning. It doesn’t have to be perfect. It just has to be real.
Businesses grow by showing their work.
So can you.
