Business and employment powerhouse LinkedIn just released its findings of the most sought after skills by employers, and ‘blockchain’ topped the rankings — beating out cloud computing and artificial intelligence in the process. It’s just another sign of the remarkable growth of the blockchain industry and the development of decentralized tech into a pillar of the global economy.

“Companies see blockchain as a transformational technology,” explains the LinkedIn report. “Blockchain has become a line of business for a who’s who of the corporate world — IBM, Oracle, JPMorgan Chase, Microsoft, Amazon, and American Express, to name just a few. Blockchain is now being used in industries ranging from shipping to healthcare, from farming and food safety to entertainment and gaming.”
