As blockchain continues to explode in popularity, it will inevitably be integrated into several different technologies and processes. One of these key emerging areas is software development. Now that blockchain has been incorporated into the development process, G2 announces a new category to meet this need, titled Blockchain Developers.
Blockchain developers will help companies build into the future
Blockchain already has a number of established use cases across various technologies. These use cases range from security and compliance to emerging technologies such as NFTs and cryptocurrencies. Before we delve into blockchain in the development process, one needs to understand how blockchain works.

In order to have and utilize blockchain-based tools, developers need to be prepared to incorporate blockchain into several systems and devices. Since blockchain is still an emerging technology in many respects, some organizations do not yet have the talent and technology required to build blockchain-based applications independently. Developing these applications requires skilled, trained developers as well as unique, complex development tools. This is where blockchain developers can help.
Who are Blockchain Developers?
Blockchain is an emerging technology focused on assets and transactions in a business network. As blockchain adoption continues to rise, software development firms have begun specializing in integrating blockchain into the development process. Blockchain developers specialize in aiding the development of applications that utilize blockchain and related technologies.
Blockchain Developers, as a category, is focused on development service providers. These providers offer to create and maintain applications for companies that are not yet ready to build applications with blockchain. By accessing these services, organizations can benefit from the power of blockchain even if they lack the internal infrastructure required to do so.

Looking Forward
As the necessity for blockchain continues to rise, it will be crucial for businesses to have applications that can integrate and connect with blockchain technology. To meet this need, companies must invest in blockchain development to stay relevant in a changing world. Businesses can learn more about this emerging technology by exploring G2’s new Blockchain Developers category. G2 has already begun adding vendors to this category and looks forward to including several more as blockchain continues to become popular.
