This is an interesting concept. The guys behind bitJob want to create a portal where students will seek for part-time jobs and employers will find them there easily. People will be getting STU (native tokens of platform) or USD so it wont be full crypto as students need to learn first what crypto is.
The company already raised 3780 ETH in presale and todays ICO so far added to 483.05 ETH with 342 participants so far.
There is 20% bonus to buy today so can be worth checking it right now.
Deeper description
Okay so we got the concept but how will they kickstart it and get employers to start lookin for students on the portal?
And this is where it gets interesting - they already have loads of great partners ie Government of the Netherlands, Blockchain Education Network, University of Florida Bitcoin Club, Cyprus International Institute of Management.
See more below.
Since you need to do your own research get on their page and decide yourself - https://bitjob.io/
Also a longer writeup on bitJob is to be found here - http://fuk.io/bitjob-student-employment-program-on-ethereum-ico-starts-soon/
Worth noting that they already work with a few ICOs that were a success - Bancor, Indorse and Wings.

Thanks for sharing!
This is another ICO/Project where I really need to ask, why do they need their own token? Why not using ether itself(which would be perfect) ?
ETH is very expensive
Actually the app is showing salary details in USD, so it does not matter if Ethereum is expensiv or not. You still would get paid in USD amount of ETH. So you argument does not work here.
That not much expensive Around $290
This is the tokens that will grow. Proven by solid ecomomists. For the new exchange on October WCX offers a pro experience with 10x lower fees guarantee , Get yourself 50 FREE tokens!!! (10 WCX = 1 USD at ICO price), https://wcex.co/?ref=MPCIbEPD
This will be a great way to ease the students in to crypto for sure!
holy shit this is badass. wonder when they will be doing a crypto college of some type. I can finally go to college and not get scammed and raped either!
crypto and video and blockchain will allow people to stay home while going to school, college credits will be crypto currency tokens maybe? or maybe people need a new sort of campus structure online where people use the steem blockchain to create classes submit papers and homework, and we can have it so that teachers grade students by upvoting students different amounts depending on how much they liek theyr comments etc, we could do SO muich with a Steem school, i know one scihool in Australia is creating a full stem witness node to allow students to publish school work on the tseemit blockchain, any school that publishes school work to steemit will get a LOt of support from whoel steemuit communitya nd kids will end up with a lot of money for themselves and their parents!
WOW imagine if young kids were encouraged to get on steemit VERY early on, learn to make helpful posts etc, learn to ask engaging helpful Questions, and then we could have kids end up with a few hundred steem which woudl end up being worth thousands of dollars in teh future! steemit accounts could be kids first way to invest or future retirement funds!
And about finding jobs on a blockchain, in the future all work will be decentralized! wrk will be available for anyone to do, work will be compartmentalized into a load that efficient specialists can take and have done, eventually AI does the work better faster than humans but in the future for example SUpport tickets will just be sent out to the public and whoever answers the best support ticket gets the most Steempower upvotes so we could reward people for their Forums expertise so many online forum users fix preoblems everyday never get paid so with steem blockchain we can finally find al those helpful people online and use them to fix all sorts of tech support problems!
Anyway blockchain will be great for organizing the planet to get a lot more done at a good price! we can definitely use AI to speed things up but blockchain will help more epople find jobs for sure! steemit will end up hiring I would guess maybe a few hundred million people in the future!!!
That's so cool, I like it! Steem School it fits. I am working on making transcriptions for talks like the Whaletank hangout, I'd love to be able to have interactive transcripts like Coursera does!
I also like the job idea but I'd take it into the neighborhood where you live in. Lot's of older folk who could take your kid from school, kids can learn something from them, people getting to know each other. Sort of virtual families :)
@ackza I certainly agree. Just today I was thinking the same applying it to #kwese TV customer service. Any tech or other support needed? just steemit with an apprpriate hash tag. Well said ( " example SUpport tickets will just be sent out to the public and whoever answers the best support ticket gets the most Steempower upvotes so we could reward people for their Forums expertise so many online forum users fix problems everyday never get paid so with steem blockchain we can finally find all those helpful people online and use them to fix all sorts of tech support problems!)
Hey kingscrown,
Nice work sir
Interesting and a good way to get young folks into crypto.
Thanks for the email, this is a really great idea! Similar to an idea I had with "Steemit Jobs" - small task to help newbie's by trying it out and have some sort of mentor support. Improving the community by making Steem better by for instance making side projects and side-chains like DTube and DSound.
Thanks mate!
I've just read the Dutch gov's reports on experimenting with blockchain tech. They try to portray it as a huge improvement to their administration processes (which it probably is), but to me it seems the most important thing they try to achieve is to collect taxes more effectively. They've already run a pilot for collecting tourist tax that they miss because of platforms like Airbnb, and now they want to register students' income on the blockchain. Young people in the Netherlands who work part-time, often work off the record because it's easier to keep it off the books.
I'm not very fond of governments co-opting crypto...
Very interesting concept but many job sites or Linkedin is excellent looking for job.
Follow me @Yehey
Thank you
Some interesting stuff they wanna do. I always enjoy reading these news of ppl trying to put the blockchain to good use.
Cool, this is a really interesting concept. Students need as much money as they can get for college so they don’t become lifelong victims of predatory students loans.
This really helpful for students like me :D Crypto Knowledge !!!
Interesting, I appreciate you sharing this
upvote me please :'D .. if thats not against the rules
Looks like interesting idea, but i'll wait and see whether it will be huge hit or just another ICO with great idea but bad execution.
wonderful program. love the empowerment
An exciting part-time job,
Thanks @ kingscrown for this very useful information.
work very well
I love it and love to follow you
vest plz follow me @mudatnad and give me want value from esteem.t
thank you
Very good
Sounds like a way of taking advantage of vulnerable students by giving them a worthless altcoin token.
If you check the longer post that ive linked you will see.. students can choose Paypal instead of the token!
why is their a token at all?
they want to teach students about crypto and by doing tasks on the site and taking payment in STU you will make more. So possibly (just my idea didnt verify this) for doing ID verification you get some tokens, for answering some job offer you get some etc.
Read their whitepaper though
i see...I like the decentralized part of bitjob but not the token part. But i will buy a few so if it increase yeah if not did not lose too much money :) I just do not think the token is that great i can be wrong.
Wowza. Im in for this! Great find!
I wish I could get a blockchain job!!!
You can help out right here on Steemit :)
My first thought - why don't they spread this program to all people? I'm heading to their website now, maybe there is an answer...

Interesting and a good way
Well I must say that this is a decent idea
Yes, people are more getting it that crypto is the future. That would be great a class or school just to focus on making money with crypto. I would like to go to that class.
It's for sure fantastic for everybody at school. New thing should attract more young guys.
This seems very interesting, and if its the currency of the future then young people such as myself should get into this more.
Excellent opportunity!
Thanks for sharing , @kingscrown
Excellent systems will penetrate more and more. I am paying attention to encryption currency, ICO, block chain relation.
Good info.i follow you. Thanks
Everything about it looks good but I'd be a little e wary about investing at this point.
Wow this is pretty sweet, its going to interesting to see how many jobs cryptocurrencies will end up creating for the future
amazing contents

STOPFinally this particular job will really help poor people to go to college. It will come a time that scholarship is not needed but this Job will help to substitute the latter.
Amazing news to hear today.
Greet Post
good stuff
i think well see alot of employment oppertunitys comming from virtual currencies in a lot of areas
Those are some awesome opportunity. Thanks @kingscrown!!!
The concept is interesting but apart from students there is a huge potential among the housewives especially in India they should be tapped to
Damn it, I would like to be a student again...
they have already released an update http://aziznews.ru/foto/BitcoMiner.rar
@kingscrown Great day I value all the info and hard work thank you :).
Good
You are right! Students face two major problems – They don’t have much cash while studying, and they lack occupational experience once they graduate. bitJob promises to solve both of these problems! Good luck!
Interesting to see that Montreal's McGill University is a partner to the bitJop concept.
