Figures from the live check of . They update after every daily check.

In the latest live check (11 November 2026), 70+ listings with a Web3 word in the title claimed to be remote. None was confirmed open worldwide, under 10% had no lock we could find, and most were limited to a place, working hours or a language. Below are the 10 remote Web3 job types ranked by how many live listings each had, with what the work is and who can apply from where.

Disclosure: Covesight is the site you are reading, and we built it. The counts below come from Covesight's own daily check of remote listings, rounded down.

How we counted

Covesight reads remote listings every day from companies' own hiring systems and a few job feeds, and checks each one for where the company can hire, working hours and language. For this page we kept the listings whose title contains web3, crypto, blockchain, DeFi, Solidity, smart contract, onchain, NFT, Bitcoin, Ethereum, stablecoin, digital assets, tokenization, zero-knowledge or Solana. Each listing counts once, under the first job type below that its title fits. A title is a rough signal, so some Web3 roles with plain titles, such as "Software Engineer" at a Web3 company, are not counted here. How Covesight works explains the three states.

Across all live remote listings, under 1% were confirmed open worldwide. None of the Web3 listings was. Web3 listings were less often open worldwide than remote listings overall.

Web3 job scams to know before you apply

Fake job offers are common in crypto because a successful scam ends with money that is hard to get back. The FBI warned in 2024 that North Korean groups were targeting the crypto industry with fake job offers. The signs it lists include an unexpected offer with unusually high pay, and a "pre-employment test" or debugging task that asks you to run unfamiliar code or download a repository. The aim is to put malware on your computer and steal crypto. Do take-home tasks on a clean machine or a virtual one, never on the computer that holds your wallet.

The same groups also apply for remote jobs themselves. In 2025 the FBI described North Korean IT workers who get remote jobs by fraud and advised employers to verify identity and work history. That is one reason many Web3 companies now ask for video interviews and identity checks, even for remote roles.

If an offer asks you to pay first, it is not a job. The US Federal Trade Commission describes task scams in which people are told to deposit their own money, usually in crypto, to unlock the next set of paid tasks. The money is gone once it is sent. In its December 2024 report, the FTC said crypto was the payment of choice for these scams. Find every offer in the company's own careers page before you reply.

How to get a remote Web3 job

Where Covesight fits, and where other sites do better

Covesight is the site you are reading, and we built it. It is free, on the web and in the app, and employers do not pay to be listed. For a Web3 job search it does three things most job sites do not:

Where other sites do better: Covesight reads companies' own hiring systems and a few general feeds, so small teams and DAOs that post only on crypto job boards, Discord or X are often missing here, and so are bounties and freelance gigs. The Ethereum community's get involved page lists Web3 job boards such as the Ethereum Foundation's own board, JobStash and Cryptocurrency Jobs. Use them next to Covesight, and check where each listing can hire before you apply.

Do you need to code to work in Web3?

No. Many Web3 roles are in compliance, sales, marketing, community, product, design and operations, and the ranking on this page counts each of them separately.

Is a Web3 job offer that asks you to run code a scam?

It can be. The FBI has warned that North Korean groups pose as employers in the crypto industry and use pre-employment tests or debugging tasks to get candidates to run code that installs malware. Run any test code only on a clean machine, and confirm the role on the company’s own careers page first.
