Bitcoin jobs rise 6% as non-tech roles lead

Crypto companies increased demand for Bitcoin (CRYPTO:BTC)-savvy workers by 6% in 2025, with job listings rising to 1,801 and non-technical roles dominating hiring, according to Bitvocation’s 2025 Bitcoin Jobs Data report.

Non-developer roles accounted for 74% of Bitcoin job openings last year, up from 69% in 2024, led by demand for product managers, directors, marketing managers and executive assistants.

Product manager was the most in-demand non-technical role, while director positions increased tenfold, signalling that Bitcoin-focused companies are scaling their operations.

“The shortage of candidates who combine professional competence with Bitcoin culture, and lived understanding of the ecosystem remains a key challenge,”

Bitvocation said in the report.

Bitcoin job opportunities were spread across mining, the Lightning network, payments, financial services and self-custody, with more than 150 Bitcoin-only companies hiring, led by Riot Platforms and Lightspark.

The US continued to dominate Bitcoin job listings with about 500 roles, while Singapore surged into second place with a 158% year-on-year increase, as Switzerland recorded the steepest decline.
