Gate Research : Gate Research Releases the “2025 Crypto Employment Market Report”

The latest report released by Gate Research Institute, “Gate Research Institute: 2025 Global Crypto Industry Employment Trends Report”, points out that despite the global economic slowdown and the impact of AI on traditional employment structures, the crypto industry continued to grow against the trend in 2024–2025. The industry’s total market capitalization surpassed $3 trillion, making it one of the most dynamic and technology-driven emerging economies in the world. According to the report, technical positions account for more than 50% of total crypto jobs, while the AI+Crypto and RWA (Real World Assets) sectors are rapidly emerging. Asia has become the fastest-growing employment market, North America maintains the highest salary levels, and remote as well as decentralized organizational models are becoming mainstream.

Key Takeaways:

• Industry Growth Against the Odds: Despite global economic headwinds, the total market capitalization of the crypto industry surpassed $3 trillion in 2025, marking a 24% year-on-year increase, positioning it as a core sector for technological innovation and capital inflows.
• Upgraded Job Structure: Technical roles account for over 50% of positions, including blockchain development, security auditing, and smart contract engineering. Non-technical positions (product, operations, compliance, marketing) grew by 35%, signaling a shift from a “technology-intensive” to an “ecosystem-collaborative” model.
• AI and RWA as Growth Drivers: The AI+Crypto and RWA (Real World Assets on-chain) sectors have become new engines of growth. Demand for multidisciplinary engineers has increased by 62%, with salaries for AI-blockchain hybrid roles rising the fastest.
• Regional Reshaping: The Asia-Pacific region has become the fastest-growing job market, accounting for 32% of global positions; North America remains the highest-paying region (annual salary ranging from $120K–$250K); Europe excels in research and compliance; and Latin America and Eastern Europe lead globally in the growth of remote job opportunities.
• Compensation and Incentive Models: The global average salary increased by 18% year-on-year. Token incentives, DAO contribution rewards, and remote profit-sharing have become mainstream mechanisms, with compliance and security roles seeing the highest salary growth.
• Future Outlook: Between 2025 and 2030, the crypto job market will transition from rapid expansion to structural optimization. AI, compliance, and security will form the core job clusters. As the industry enters a phase of rational growth, globalization and cross-disciplinary capabilities will define the competitive landscape.
