How can an unskilled neet get into the blockchain industry?

Do I need to go to school, learn to code, or what? I'd like to go balls deep into the industry, but don't know how.

Learn the basics of programming, start with a really small language like C so you can grasp it easily, then move on to object-oriented programming like C++ or Java. Then use one of those two languages to learn more about data structures, things like linked lists, trees, etc.. being able to understand data structures will be essential to understanding blockchain technology, and understand object-oriented programming helps you wrap your mind around data structures.

You think there are sales jobs to be had in the industry. I work for a top 4 Business Intelligence company and have a pretty strong background. Was thinking of looking for a sales job in the space since I'm only 26 and it seems like the future.

I'm working as cloud engineer with a smallish hedge fund, and I keep ranting about blockchain trying to get the execs to make the switch. Word of mouth is the way to go.

Don't tell him to start with C. Start with something stupid easy like html and then add JavaScript to manipulate the page. Then console java and from there the world is his oyster.

I don't even know what blockchaining is and you can make money from it.

Is programming the only avenue at the time? I could start teaching myself to code. Lets say I even get decent at it, how will I enter the industry?

Once you're decent at programming, learn how cryptography and blockchain tech work.
There is a demand for talent, if you get good and can prove it, you'll probably be wanted.

Already have coins. Would like to get paid for working in the industry and not just investing in it.
