Introduction

This short article will help you navigate when looking for a job in Web3/Cryptocurrency projects. The article consists of 3 parts:

1. In the first one, we will touch on the pros and cons of working in this sector

2. In the second, we will discuss vacancies using the example of a position in the marketing department

3. In the third part, you will find a list of resources with which you can easily find your first job (if you are a job seeker) or a new employee (if you are an employer).
Part 1. General introductory

Globally, working in Web-3 is no different from working in the real sector. However, web3 has its advantages. We go straight to them:

➕ ADVANTAGES

1. Salary. On average, salaries in web3 projects are 30% higher than salaries in the real sector. For marketing, the basic position is support [Technical Support Operator]. In projects with a budget, the fork ranges from $300 to $500 per month. The content/Community manager receives up to $2,000. The marketer receives up to $5,000.

2. Flexibility. You can combine this kind of work with other things. You will not be supervised if the work involves a clear plan and global tasks. This advantage can be attributed to any remote work.

3. Connections. The larger the project, the more connections and acquaintances you acquire over time, they can be very useful.

*For example, working at Binance opens up all the roads for you in the matter of partnerships and connections because you are part of the Binance team (Big name, good reputation, big budgets).

4. Remote access. 99% of the projects will offer you a remote location. In very rare cases, the team works centrally in offices. I think you can not talk about the advantages of remoteness, but it's worth talking about the fat minus: everyday life and work can merge together. In this case, you risk getting burnout.

5. Requirements. In comparison with the real sector, the requirements are underestimated. This is due to personnel starvation.

*For example, the requirements for the same support: free time, basic understanding of the crypt, and the project in which you will work.

➖ CONS

1. The lack of clear boundaries. You often have to do more than you need to. But if the project values its employees, then this is rewarded with bonuses, and sometimes even a promotion.

2. Projects are being closed. Often projects run out of budget and then you have to look for a new one. It can happen suddenly, or it can happen systematically.

*Freezing or complete closure of a project more often refers to startups that have failed to attract financing, so it is better to focus on established companies. However, they are more difficult to get into and they pay less than startups.

3. The schedule. It is very important to discuss this point before taking office, otherwise you will work 10 hours a day, 7 days a week. Over a long distance, you will get 100% burnout.

The general situation is that there is still a shortage of competent employees in the field, and the need for them is high. This explains the spread in salaries and the vagueness in commitments.
Part 2. Where to begin?

Since we are talking about marketing, let's start with the most basic position in this department - Support [Technical Support Operator].

Becoming a support is the easiest thing, but that doesn't mean it's going to be easy. You are, in fact, a call center operator whose main task is to help the client (the user of the project). You don't need to have outstanding skills in such a job. The main thing is: perseverance, a desire to work and a complete understanding of the project.

A reasonable question is: "Where can I find the first project?". There are a lot of options, here are some of them:

1. Post your resume on the bulletin board / Wait for a suitable vacancy and respond

*The list of sites is available in 3 parts

2. Write to projects directly

We find a project we like —> contact the manager, find out about the availability of work. In such an option, it is important to have a competent offer (to describe why you should be taken), and you can also look for problem points in the project and offer their solution (if the team is adequate, then this will be noted in a positive way).

3. Be active in the chats of the project of interest

Help the chat participants: make guides and everything that can be useful to the user. If the team is engaged in their community, then you will be noticed and invited.

(!) Knowledge of English is a necessity. Will require level B1+

It is important to clarify the level of community activity (the amount of work) and the Tone of Voice [TOV] - the manner of communication in the chat. The more active you are in the community, the higher your salary. The ceiling is $500/month. However, there are exceptions where the salary can reach $ 1,500, such offers can be obtained on CEX exchanges like Binance. You can grow horizontally: take on several projects, or work in one, but be responsible for several chats (for example, CIS chat + global chat). Thus, the salary will grow in multiples, but it will also take up more and more time.

Moving on to the Content Providers

Here, the salary fork is wider, and the schedule can be made much more convenient than in support. And the work is more interesting, but more complicated and voluminous.

A content developer is understood to be a position where complex tasks related to the creation and design of content are performed. The scope of these tasks depends on the project, or rather on its budget allocated to the team. In my experience, the following rankings have been encountered:

1. The man is a Swiss knife

This is when you make a content plan, write material with TOV in mind, create a poster (that is, you are also a designer), then publish the finished material on the social network. You keep records and propose a solution to increase their performance. If you have been hired as a Content Manager, but the list of tasks includes the entire list listed above, then congratulations: now you are a marketer with the salary of a Content Manager.

2. Office plankton

Here you will be responsible for some specific task, because in this case there is a whole team on staff: a marketer, a copywriter, a designer, an editor. As a rule, these are large projects with fairly large budgets.

Which of the options should I choose to start? To put it blurrily, everything is individual. Specifically, this is how I reason:

• In large projects, tasks are set more clearly, and therefore it is easier to work, while the salary will be market-based, and this is a fork from $500 to $1,500 / month + You add large projects to your portfolio, and this is reputation (a very important point);

• In small projects, you get a similar fork, but you perform much more tasks. But experience in such projects can be gained much more and faster. As a result, you will become a more comprehensive specialist and more doors may open for you in the web3 factory than in the first option.

What skills do you need to have?

The ability to write and compose texts, correctly convey the meaning. To test this skill, remember how well or poorly you wrote /write school essays. Understanding what you are writing about is an equally important skill. And if you understand the topic well, then even a bad text will turn into a good one. Do not forget about imagination and creativity.

Introduction

Since 2021, the Russian Federation has increased its attention to the regulation of transactions with cryptocurrencies. According to the Tax Code of the Russian Federation, income from transactions with digital financial assets (cryptocurrencies) is subject to taxation. This guide will help you to correctly reflect your cryptocurrency transactions in your tax return and avoid possible fines and sanctions.

Step 1: Collect the necessary data and documents

The first step is to collect all the information and documents related to your cryptocurrency transactions.

1.1. Statements and reports from exchanges and wallets

Confirmations of the purchase and sale of cryptocurrencies: statements from exchanges, screenshots, emails and other documents confirming transactions.
Transaction history: full details of all transactions for the reporting period.
Exchange differences: data on the exchange rates of cryptocurrencies to the ruble at the time of each transaction.

1.2. Bank documents

Bank account statements: confirm the deposit and withdrawal of funds.
Receipts and payment orders: when transferring funds to or withdrawing from the exchange.

1.3. Additional documents

Contracts and agreements: if they were concluded with exchanges or other counterparties.
Documents confirming expenses: commissions of exchanges, payment systems and other related expenses.

Step 2: Calculating income and expenses

At this stage, it is necessary to determine the amount of income and expenses for calculating the tax base.

2.1. Determination of the purchase price (expenses)

Purchase of USDT for RUB:
Fix the amount in rubles spent on the purchase of USDT.
Take into account the commissions and related costs.
Buying BTC for USDT:
Convert the value of BTC into rubles at the rate of USDT/RUB at the time of purchase.
Take into account the official exchange rate of the Central Bank of the Russian Federation, if USDT is not recognized as an official currency.

2.2. Determination of the cost of sales (income)

Selling BTC for USDT:
Calculate the amount in rubles received from the sale of BTC using the USDT/RUB exchange rate at the time of sale.
Exchange of USDT to RUB:
Fix the amount in rubles received when converting USDT to RUB.
Take into account commissions and other expenses when withdrawing funds.

2.3. Calculation of the financial result

Profit or loss is defined as the difference between income and expenses:
Copy the code

Financial result = Amount of income - Amount of expenses

If the result is positive, it is a taxable profit. If negative— it is a loss that can be taken into account in the following tax periods.

Step 3: Calculation of the tax base and the amount of tax

3.1. Determination of the tax base

The tax base is the amount of profit earned from transactions with cryptocurrencies.
Calculation example:
Expenses: 100,000 RUB (purchase of USDT and then BTC).
Income: 200,000 RUB (sale of BTC and exchange of USDT for RUB).
Tax base: 200,000 RUB - 100,000 RUB = 100,000 RUB.

3.2. Calculation of the tax amount

The tax rate for residents of the Russian Federation is 13%.

The amount of tax:
Tax amount = Tax base × 13%

Example:
Tax amount = 100,000 RUB × 13% = 13,000 RUB

Step 4: Filling out the tax return (Form 3-Personal income tax)

4.1. Receipt of the 3-Personal income tax form

The form is available on the official website of the Federal Tax Service of the Russian Federation or in the taxpayer's personal account.

The amount of income in rubles.
The amount of expenses (the cost of acquiring cryptocurrency).

4.3.2. List D: Income from sources outside the Russian Federation

If the transactions were carried out on foreign exchanges.
Similarly to sheet A, specify income and expenses.

4.4. Calculation of the tax base

Section 2: Calculation of the tax base and the amount of tax.
Transfer the income and expense data from the corresponding sheets.

4.6. Verification and confirmation of data

Check all the entered data for correctness.
Make sure that the amounts of income, expenses and tax are calculated correctly.

Step 5: Preparation of supporting documents

Documents confirming the specified income and expenses must be attached to the declaration.

Bank statements: confirm the deposit and withdrawal of funds.
Documents on exchange differences: official exchange rates on the dates of transactions (you can use data from the Central Bank of the Russian Federation).

Introduction
With the development of digital technologies and the popularization of cryptocurrencies, the number of user deception scenarios has increased. Scammers use various methods to get hold of cryptocurrency assets. The trouble is that a beginner, just comprehending the mighty blockchain, always comes across the simplest, not knowing or forgetting about the basic rule: "Everyone wants to trick you." After this phrase, it would be possible to complete the article altogether, but still sometimes, even when you are already an experienced participant in p2p trading and know about this simple truth, the eye begins to swing and there is a risk of making a catastrophic mistake. This article is written as a warning! Knowledge of popular schemes and prudence can save you from financial losses. Let's look at the main fraud schemes and tell you practical tips on how to avoid these traps.

The main fraud schemes

1. Gift Card Fraud
A fraudster through messengers, for example, Telegram, offers the victim a small income for transferring funds to a gift card. To cheat, he requests a screen demonstration to gain access to the victim's wallet. This allows him to gain control over finances without arousing suspicion from the user. (With the departure of Binance from Russia, it has become rare.

2.Scam exchangers
Some exchangers on sites such as BestChange look legitimate, but in fact they are fraudulent. Such exchangers offer favorable rates to entice users, but do not fulfill the promised transactions, leaving users without money.

3. An "empty" wallet with a balance
Scammers send access to a wallet that shows a balance of 1000 USDT, but the wallet does not have TRX, the necessary currency for transactions on the TRC20 network. The victim is forced to transfer TRX to complete the transaction, after which the scammers gain access to these funds.

4. NFT fraud
In the field of NFT, scammers buy inexpensive tokens, and then offer the victim to resell them at an inflated price. They convince the victim of a possible profit by showing fake screenshots and reviews, after which they take possession of the victim's money. Never buy tokens unknown to you, at least for the reason that a token is primarily an asset that users themselves set prices for. If no one believes in him, then believe me, you don't need him either.

5. Fake accounts
Scammers create accounts with identical nicknames and avatars, imitating famous users or administrators. They copy the appearance of the profile, but they cannot clone a unique username, which makes it difficult to verify the authenticity of the account. Always pay attention to the details. Diligent mimicry is a bad sign!

6. Fraud in international arbitration
Using arbitrage transactions in different countries, scammers offer "profitable" transactions with USDT. They initiate a chain of transactions between different currencies that the user cannot verify, which leads to financial losses. You can't even find free cheese in a mousetrap right now!

7. The "Triangle"
In the P2P exchange scheme, scammers involve a third party to transfer funds, violating security rules. If the victim does not check the details of the transaction and does not request documents from the sender, you can lose money, as the support platform refuses to intervene. This scheme is simple and elegant, and is most common. The only way to avoid it is to carefully check all the details, listen to your gut and take your time.

8. The "Twins" of applications
The second most popular after the "triangle". Scammers open two transactions with the victim from different accounts for the same amount at the same time. One account transfers rubles to the victim's account, while the other claims to have made the transfer, forcing the victim to confirm the payment without careful verification.

9. Complex transactions with additional interest
By offering "profitable" terms with additional payment, scammers first conclude successful deals with the victim. Then, by introducing changes, they require the transfer of smaller amounts or additional interest, effectively putting the victim on false trades. Well, what can I say about cheese, I think you've already understood.

10. Cancellation of a transaction in BTC
Scammers simulate a BTC transfer, which is displayed as a pending transaction. The victim, thinking that Bitcoin is on the way, sends equivalent amounts to USDT. The transaction is cancelled and the victim is left without money. A trader needs strong nerves, because here he will be hurried, assured, begged, threatened and even open an appeal, if only he would make a transaction and lose his money forever.

11. Linking someone else's wallet
The scammers ask to install a Metamask wallet and connect their "magic bundle". They ask to demonstrate the screen in order to access the victim's linked wallet and eventually manage her funds.

How to avoid fraud TOP 8 rules:
1)Work only with users who have more than 200 successful transactions and have been registered for more than 30 days.
2)Use personal bank cards and do not accept transfers from third parties.
3) Check the username, administrator and moderator if you are contacted. Request confirmation videos from your interlocutors.
4)Avoid offers related to international arbitration and gift cards.
5) Check links and domains before clicking on them and do not download anything from unverified sites.
6)Always verify the wallet number before sending funds.
7) Do not provide access to your wallets and ignore suspicious private messages.
8) Use only verified exchangers, having previously studied all social networks, reviews and information about the company from their open sources.

Conclusion
Fraud in the cryptocurrency sphere is developing as rapidly as the technologies themselves. Knowing these methods and taking precautions will help you avoid financial losses and keep your funds safe. Prudence and concentration while working with cryptocurrency are key factors for successful and safe activities, because you need to remember that this area is considered high—risk for a reason.
Strong nerves and cold cuts are the most important tools of a trader!м
