"Hey guys, it's been a wild ride working in crypto dev, but I'm feeling burnt out and thinking of making a career shift. I've been doing smart contracts for 5+ years, but my passion's dwindling and I'm not sure what else to do. Has anyone else made a similar transition or have any suggestions on where to look?"

Thoughts on best practices?
"Hey OP, I feel your struggle. I've seen a lot of devs make similar career transitions in the past, but it usually requires some experience in other areas, like cloud or DevOps, to make your resume stand out. Have you considered taking online courses to upskill and diversify your portfolio?"
Dude, I feel you! I was a crypto dev myself, but after the latest bear market, I ended up leaving the space. If you're looking to leverage your skills, I'd recommend checking out some non-crypto tech companies that work with blockchain or decentralized tech - it's a growing field.
"Hey OP, been there too. Consider leveraging your crypto dev experience to pivot into DeFi or web3 projects, it's a growing space with real-world applications. Also, don't dismiss freelancing or consulting gigs for a while, can be a good way to network and gain more experience."
