Israeli Blockchain Job Platform ‘bitJobs’ Launches

Israeli Blockchain Job Platform ‘bitJobs’ Launches

bitJob, a blockchain-powered employment site formally launched on January 28, 2019, with the aim of connecting potential employees to employers on a secure platform. 

Accommodating a New Industry

Blockchain has made a significant impact on the job market with blockchain developer being one of the highest searched-for jobs on LinkedIn in 2018. Now, the technology is being used to ease the process of connecting employers with potential employees. This is the result bitJob is gunning for, a new blockchain-bolstered platform that provides a secure and transparent link between employers and those who wish to get hired with a sincere focus on students breaking into the working world.

The platform was launched on January 28, 2019, and is one of the latest blockchain projects to come out of Israel. bitJob works as a form of bridge between employer and employee. Those who are in need of workers simply post requests to the platform and once the job is done, payment is made without any need for additional costs. All interactions made are also rewarded by bitJob, which accepts both fiat and cryptocurrency.

The platform is based on the Ethereum blockchain and has its own native currency, STU, which acts as both a form of payment as well as a reward system. The idea behind bitJob is to allow students to earn extra income by working on small jobs across various fields while also earning real-life experiments that can prove helpful in the future.

Ideas From Israel

bitJob was founded by Dror Medalion, the CEO & Co-founder, Aviad Gindi, the CFO and Co-founder and Elad Kofman, the CMO and Co-founder and is based out of Israel.

It is one of many new blockchain innovations coming out of the region. Silver Castle Ltd, which also based out of Israel, launched two funds for institutional investors back in November 2018, in addition to the almost 370 funds they already manage.

In October 2018, the Israel Sveutieis Authority formally integrated blockchain technology into their systems to properly verify the authenticity of messages as well as prevent fraud. According to reports, the government is looking further into blockchain to improve cybersecurity as well as improve their information systems.

Bitcoin Solves Legal Marijuana’s Federal Banking Problem

SinglePoint and First bitcoin Capital partner up to solve payment problems in the legal marijuana industry by releasing a point of sale app.


High Priority Issue for the Legal Marijuana Industry

One of the lesser documented reasons for the rise of bitcoin’s price is the role it plays in the legal marijuana industry in the United States. The problem is that US local and federal law are at loggerheads over the legality of the money raised from the selling of legal cannabis products.

Cannabis & Bitcoin

While the tender may be legal in 29 states, it still remains illegal under federal law. This creates issues for point of sale and also where to deposit profits.  This has provided a role for bitcoin as an intermediary and as a potential store of value, with the legal cannabis industry having sales of $8 billion in 2016 you have to wonder where this money is being stored and where it is being invested.

SinglePoint + First bitcoin Capital = Fast Solution?

There is now tremendous momentum and demand for bitcoin acceptance as an alternative form of payment. In a news release this past Tuesday, SinglePoint CEO Greg Lambrecht stated:

This Joint Venture with First bitcoin Capital is perfect timing. bitcoin payments are catching on and cannabis dispensaries need a solution fast.

SinglePoint brings their expertise in distribution while First Bitcoin Capital provides their knowledge and experience with bitcoin and blockchain technology. The partners plan to distribute their offering as a downloadable application for point-of-sale machines. Hopefully, the companies will provide a relatively swift solution to Bitcoins transaction speeds.

The offering would compete with other pot payment innovations such as cashless ATMs and dedicated prepaid cards.
