'Blockchain Developer' is the Fastest-Growing US Job

'Blockchain developer' is the top emerging job in the U.S. -- according to data published in LinkedIn's 2018 U.S. Emerging Jobs report. From a report: Using data gleaned from the LinkedIn Economic Graph, which serves as a 'digital representation of the global economy' by analyzing the skills and job openings from across 590 million members and 30 million companies, LinkedIn found that 'blockchain developers' has grown 33-fold in the past four years. In this case, 'emerging jobs' refers to the growth of specific job titles on LinkedIn profiles in the period between 2014 and 2018. It's worth noting here that 'blockchain' didn't appear anywhere in the top 20 emerging jobs in 2017, while 'machine learning engineer' topped the list last year -- it's in second place this year.
