Matchpool will host a bitJob ‘pool’ on its platform for students to network and expand their knowledge of blockchain technology. bitJob participants can collaborate to secure freelance projects, earning additional income streams and valuable experience needed to compete in today’s marketplace. bitJob aims to create a funnel of blockchain talent to fuel growth of the industry as a whole.

“bitJob and Matchpool users share a key similarity in their willingness to connect and collaborate,” said Yonatan Ben Shimon, CEO of Matchpool. “Hosting bitJob students on Matchpool will allow communities to grow and exchange thoughts, and be incentivized with cryptocurrency in the process.”

“Creating a network with the best opportunities for students is our top priority at bitJob, and partnering with Matchpool allows us to facilitate powerful connections in the blockchain space,” said Dror Medalion, co-founder of bitJob. “We believe this will lead to the growth of bitJob’s marketplace and utility of the STU token.”
