Everyone wants blockchain talent.
Almost no one knows where to find it.
Protocols spend millions on grants with no distribution. Exchanges post jobs that reach the wrong candidates. Conferences run events that students never hear about. The talent exists — it's in classrooms, in campus clubs, in dorm rooms building the next protocol. The problem was never supply. It was access.

Six ways to reach the next generation.
Each one connects you directly to students who are actively building, learning, and choosing where to work next.
Talent Pipeline
The best blockchain hires don’t come from job boards. They come from the clubs and classrooms where the next protocols are being sketched out. Tap into students filtered by skill, university, and region.
Newsletter & Content
Thousands of blockchain students open our newsletter every week. One featured slot per issue. Your protocol, your opportunity, their inbox.
Campus Events
Run a hackathon at MIT. Host a workshop at KAIST. Sponsor a demo day at University of Michigan. Your event, our network, real students in seats.
Bounties & Grants
Post a bounty, fund a grant, or sponsor a challenge. Students compete, you get working prototypes and a shortlist of builders who actually ship.
Campus Sponsorship
Put your name in front of the next generation of builders. Your brand in every event, every newsletter, every student’s first exposure to the industry.
Podcast & Media
Feature your founder on the BEN podcast or sponsor an episode. Reach an audience that’s actively learning, building, and choosing where to work next.
If you're building the future of finance,
your next hire is in our network.
Protocols & Foundations
You’re shipping product and need developers who understand the stack. Our students don’t need to be taught what a rollup is — they’re already building on one.
Exchanges & Enterprises
Compliance-aware, crypto-native, ready on day one. Skip the six-month onboarding. The students in our network have been living in this space since freshman year.
Events & Accelerators
The difference between an empty room and a packed one is distribution. One listing reaches every student in our network — from Cambridge to Seoul.
