🚨 “One message to Zhanna changed the course of my Web3 journey.”

That’s what Darko Petrovic, Growth Manager at IBC Group, said after connecting with Jaya Talent.

From casually following Zhanna on LinkedIn…
To landing a role aligned with his expertise just two days later — we’ve been proud to be part of that journey.

💬 “The same day we connected, I got a list of job opportunities tailored to my background. The next day I had an interview. And the day after that, I got the job.”

We don’t just match resumes.
We match readiness with the right opportunity — and we make sure our clients get candidates who are aligned, impactful, and ready to contribute from day one.

At Jaya Talent, we’re committed to supporting both top talent and visionary Web3 projects — because great teams build great ecosystems💥

📉 Crypto Job Market — March 2026 Reality Check

450+ jobs cut in the last 3 weeks alone.

Here's the breakdown:
▪️ Block (Jack Dorsey) — 4,000+ cut. ~40-50% of total workforce
▪️ Gemini — 30% headcount reduction. Now ~445 employees total
▪️ Crypto.com — 180 employees out. 12% of staff
▪️ Algorand Foundation — 25% cut. Cited macro uncertainty + weak token prices (ALGO down 98% from peak)
▪️ OP Labs (Optimism) — 20 roles eliminated
▪️ Messari — 3rd round of layoffs since 2023. Down from 1,000 to ~140 employees

The official reason? AI.
The real reason? A mix of cost pressure, weak token prices, and companies using AI as cover.

The scariest stat: new crypto job postings dropped 80% year-on-year. Only 6.5 new roles per day in January 2026 across all major job boards.

If you're in Web3 / crypto and feeling uncertain - this is the market you're navigating.
We track this so you don't have to 🫂🫀

Thanks for mentioning Alpha Apex Group, and to our job seekers for sharing it with us 🫶

Are you accidentally being a "Disagreeable Companion"?

Our CEO recently shared a page from a 1750 essay by Benjamin Franklin, and it’s a masterclass in what not to do. Franklin’s "Rules for Making Oneself a Disagreeable Companion" are a sarcastic reminder of how easily we can kill a conversation.

The 4 Red Flags to avoid in your next interview or networking event:
• The Monologue: Talking only about your own victories and education without letting others speak.
• The Grammar Police: Interrupting someone just to correct a tiny error or start a dispute.
• The Credit Stealer: Dismissing someone else’s good idea or claiming you "already knew that."
• The Room Silencer: Making others so uncomfortable that they choose to stay silent rather than engage with you.


Franklin’s point was simple: If you spend all your energy trying to prove you’re the smartest person in the room, you’ll eventually find yourself in a room by yourself.

Post for founders: Something we're both noticing across our agencies right now:

Client demand is up significantly. Founders are hiring again - but the playbook has changed.

What worked in 2022 doesn't work anymore.

Me and Kirill Veretin, founder of Veretin Recruitment run two recruiting agencies for web3 hiring - Jaya Talent & Veretin Recruitment. Between us we see dozens of hiring processes every month.

So we're doing a founders fireside to share what's actually working right now:
🔹 Why your job posts aren't converting
🔹 The #1 mistake founders make in first hires
🔹 How to compete for talent without a big brand
🔹 When to use an agency vs. hire in-house

Drop your biggest hiring question here - we'll answer everything live.

And if you're actively hiring right now, DM @jayatalentoffice, happy to chat.

More education means lower pay. Less competitive roles pay just as much. And the industry that invented remote work is dragging people back to desks. Web3 in 2026 is full of surprises — here's how to use them to your advantage.

For years, Web3 prided itself on being the industry that didn't need offices. In 2025, that identity quietly collapsed. Remote postings fell 30%, hybrid became the new normal, and the skills that made you valuable two years ago may already be obsolete.
