Hey guys! Noticed this is still getting some traction so I’ve left a few links to what I used in the description. Also you could join my company’s telegram to ask me some questions(“about the company, not blockchain development XD”). The token isn’t out yet, but we’re trying to build out the community. Links in the description!!
In a nutshell: * CS50 -> Problem Solving is required, or any university level course in computer Science , ( waterloo U , Standford and MIT have open lectures on it ) * Flutter & Dart The complete guide , but... any js framework React , Vue, NextJs could be fine. -> African Developer Masterclass -> A Solidity Bootcamp from Binance ( This one, but could be other way , not suitable for other nationalities i guess ) Thank you Obinna.
That was wonderful!! Thank you. I quit my job teaching high school to become a developer, and through a roundabout process, I have, like you, settled on blockchain development. I am very inspired right now. Thank you again!!
I really want to do this. I have zero coding experience but I do love computers. I really think I can do this I just don't have any clue wear to begin. Any advise?
I really enjoyed this video and hearing your story about how you got into blockchaim development! I am a software engineer myself, I have been working "regular" developer jobs so far but recently quit my job to live abroad and travel. Blockchain development has caught my eye for a while, thanks for the insights!
Also, you're doing great with making videos! I started doing YT a couple months ago too so I know how hard it is :D But I would have never guessed you're new to this if you hadn't mentioned it! Also, your light setup is extremely nice
Aww thanks so much for the kind words. I heard Cardano are doing a plutus pioneer programme to teach people for free, I’ve applied already on their website. Hope I see you there too!!
"Willing to learn" can actually get you jobs. I remember my days when i underestimated the power of "Don know this stuff much but willing to learn and put in the effort", which i picked up from a random tech Tedtalk. But it's amazing some companies will actually give you the Jr. Dev role for your willingness to learn.
Congratulations on your Blockchain Developer position! Your story is an Inspiration to me and I look forward to learning about coding and web development and this new financial system were integrating into. So much to learn and the best time is to get in early just like You. Thanks again for the information! Take care
Hi man! I've seen your video about one month after I got into programming and even if I did not use the resources you've talked about, I got inspired by this genuine story. 1 and a half years have passed since then and I'm now going on 11 months at my new company as a Solidity Developer. Thanks for the help!
@@deep_thoughts I finished highschool and then dropped out of college in the first month of the first year :D. My brain always worked logically and critically, I was going to a lot of contests of math and logic when I was young. Programming fitted me like a glove I guess, altho I never tried it before
@@cherrywork you learn the fundamentals of programming with C. And then start using these principles in JavaScript and Python. You definitely don’t use a lot of it in app development. But helps build solid fundamentals and allows you to learn other things much quicker.
Damn! Felt like a future version of myself giving direct advice lol.. also did the same python and data science course during pandemic plus i learnt javascript too.. switched to crypto currency and went into crypto trading, defi, gaming etc, and now I’m back to programming.. currently on cs50 week 3 and honestly, this video really boosted my spirit.. Thank you so much.. would love to know if you work remotely from nigeria tho ….Thanks
wow!! You are on the right track. Keep learning and getting better at blockchain development. Remember when mobile development started and how much money you could make before it got saturated? Blockchain development and web 3.0 is the beginning. It can be very lucrative if you know what you are doing. Good luck!!
really encouraging. i am thinking of the similar thing. at present i am doing technical research for a web3 startup. although i have no technical background, just lucky enough to get a job but i somehow desire to learn blockchain, i want to build a product for the mothers community.
So glad I came across this video. I work as a developer for a while and now I'm on the journey to learn about blockchain development. Good job, man. And thank you for sharing
Oh my god.. you are a guide to me man. I am from a financial background.. and I have been interested in learning solidity but was always scared .. and you .. you did it .. you are an inspiration
Hey...I am very interested in this but I don't understand how to start. I don't understand the video. How cs50 and flutter is related to blockchain...can u please please please explain? I really need to help my family financially.
@@abhichi okay the thing is you don’t have to do cs50. You could just learn any frontend. Flutter, JavaScript etc. but as a beginner, by doing that you pretty much take out a technical debt that you’d have to pay later. Cs50 kinda goes into detail about fundamentals of writing code. But for web3 development, you’d need to know the blockchain you’re going to build on, to learn what smart contract language you need
Btw frontend is essentially what you can see and interact with. The blockchain part of things is just writing smart contract logic. Aka coding in solidity, if that makes sense
Hahahahah you're just like me i have done JS, Python, and landed on flutter and dropped because i a lot of stuff is confusing which one is better for use in coding a blockchain. Now, i have seen Golang, never tried solidity though.... I also been jumping about bro.... thanks for this video you put out bro. I thought i was the only confused one lol! 9ja!
So expressive and real, no make-ups.....Obinna, you're so inspiring! Just finished learning the basics of Java, and I'll appreciate someone to mentor me; I want to be an AI engineer
I remember being where you are 20+ years ago. I’ve accomplished more than I ever imagined by constantly learning new things and changing with the times. Good work. Keep soaking up the knowledge it will get you very far.
It's really funny and crazy how I'm watching this a year after. So, currently I've been battling on how to start my coding career especially block chain. I opened my RUclips again to continue a course I'm watching on simplilearn before algorithm pop up your video. Thanks for this mate. I will pause that and start the CS50. I will come back a year after and tell you what I've achieved 😊😊
Would you bring me along? I'm currently looking forward to learning but I have no experience whatsoever and I do not know where to start from... it's been over a month I got a laptop and I do not know where to start from.. I would really appreciate a mentor for a start.
Great job! I learned and got a job in web dev during the pandemic, and after learning about and investing in crypto I've been interested in learning blockchain as well.
I’m looking to pursue this career soon, decided to make the move and sign up for a 4 month boot camp to fulfill my dreams in working in the blockchain industry…
Hey bro, very proud of you! I am in Kingsland's code bootcamp now, I finished Full-Stack last year, and now I'm trying to do Blockchain Development. Just started on solidity(having a hard time understanding uints but I'll get there) and writing Smart Contracts.
Awesome personal story! Thank you for your naturalness and sense of humor. Just thinking about web3 as junior js-dev. Trying to find an area wich I'll like in this tremendous field of opportunities. Greetings from Minsk, Belarus😎
We had similar story. I Learnt interacting with APIs in php online myself when I relocate to this country and it’s was the only way I could get a job. I even try a tutorial channel🤣
Fantastic Video! I'm not exactly trying to be a blockchain developer but I'm trying to get into Automation Testing and I've always been worried that I have to know everything to land a job but after speaking to many people and seeing this video it's calmed me down in knowing that you don't need to know everything just understand the fundemantals and be willing to learn and it will be more than enough. Thank you.
I do web design for nft & crypto projects, i am learning dart for fun, saw solidity & trying to know what is it, and you appeared lol, i am on the right path xd
Great story and thanks for all the added context. It definitely matters as people try to "level themselves" to where you were and where you ended up. The "priors" matter a lot, e.g. PhD in Finance with no coding presents an interesting dichotomy for someone to dig into something new and something technical. I had ZERO programming experience until age 31, I was a bartender, flooring installer, handyman *AND* a former Math/Physics double major grad. A follow up question to this video would be what sorts of applications are you building as a blockchain developer? What applications do you see as the "main work" right now in the industry? e.g. Payment APIs? Lending Apps? Or is there this "carte blanche" of all current "Web 2.0" apps that would eventually be candidates to move to Blockchains? P.S. I'm actually a Data Scientist/Engineer considering new options, such as blockchain developer. So your video has been a nice view on my journey.
Thanks for the comment! I’d say the main work right now is building the foundations to enable fully decentralised applications. As good infrastructure allows more interesting projects that we can’t even think of now, to be created. I don’t think there will be much of a migration of Web 2.0 to Web 3.0. As Web 2.0 does some things really well. But especially from the vertical of influencer monetisation, Web 3.0 creates a path to monetise communities in a way Web 2.0 by design cannot match. We will definitely see new business models emerge. I’m currently working on a network token and also a personal project. Don’t know if I can say much about either right now.
Thank you so much for this video! I just found out that I did not pass my entrance exam for veterinary uni and it's been a while that coding/tech videos have been coming up on my fyp and I got interested and really wanna give it a shot. I was really scared to start this new chapter of my life since I have zero knowledge about technology but u rally gave me hope!!
Thank you for the advice and focusing on a certain language, Blockchain is the future and was wondering how to get into developing on it, appreciate you taking the time out to share, it has helped me a lot Best of luck with your future plans
I have no coding experience. I like to be a developer in blockchain. What should i do first? Do i need to learn web development like html, html5, css, node, js? Or Can i just learn javascript from scratch then solidity? Which is best? Python or javascript? Tia
Great video bro. I've started learning JavaScript today, I have no coding experience and it seems almost impossible right now. I'm a copywriter by trade but want to retrain so I can work as a Web3 developer.
hey glad to hear your story, i am in same phase , I am lost and homeless with no job, what should be best after cs50 to go after ? i have 6 months to learn unless I go all broke lolz, An advise would be helpful to shape my future, thanks in advance brother
Thanks so much for your sharing. I found your video as the most informative on youtube for non-coder like me. Currently I'm struggeling to finish the writing part of phd and also not really fond of what i'm doing. Feel like I was lost then I discovered crypto and blockchain things, i grew interest on the tech and really want to get involved on blockchain industry. I think your video kinda inspiring me to start my journey on learning blockchain. Thank god I found your video. Thank you for inspiring me and share what to learn for starter with no coding experience.
Man i need to be a blockchain developer asap. Im to familiar with all this tech not to know a language by now. Still need to finish CS50 i came across it couple months ago and moved to a new place last month. Need to hurry up and finish cause im SLACKING! Gunna have to go full blockchain after im done with my time in service! I cant wait!
@@usenobongjamese.9912 connect? Sounds sketchy. Thats how most the shady characters sound prior to attempting some sort of exploit. What exactly are you trying to connect for buddy?
Oh, apologies for the vagueness of my earlier comment. I got interested and have been self-studying on blockchain technology. Got to know about CS50 as well and have bookmarked it as a next point of call....sort of taking my baby steps towards the developers route. Since you're already ahead in that route, I felt it'd be a great idea to connect with you. Proof-of-Motivation...🙇♂️
Bro actually I like this video.. I just graduated from college here in Nigeria and u know how unemployment is a big issue over here so I recently started researching on block chain development and smart contracts.. Do you have any personal social media I can reach u so we can talk & work together or u guide me through these things bro.. Please am a beginner In this field and need good guidance.
Hey Obinna. I purposely cam across your video. I've recently developed an interest in Blockchain development and technology. My friend literally explained in layman terms and it piqued my interest. So currently, I've decided to ditch learning front end skills like html, css and the likes and focus more on Blockchain skills. I researched that learning C++ could be a great step in the right direction. I tried my hands in Python for a while but I didn't really feel comfortable with it. What do you think about C++? Do you have to use for your role as a Blockchain developer? And also, any pep talk and inside knowledge into the whole Blockchain development world would be really helpful. Thanks so much!!
Talk about running into a fortunate opportunity! Not many are gonna share the same story as you after listening to it but it does give people some hope, I guess
Thank you for the advise! You are such amazing Obinna. I'm on the way being a blockchain developer, currently I'm in my learning path. Hope I will get the job too. I'm very very very willing to learn even after I learn so much things to prepare to become blockchain developer in my learning path. I'm serious with this, blockchain developer will be my serious career.
I'm a huge fan of blockchain & crypto and just like you, I'm not about trading, I want to position myself for the opportunities blockchain would be unfolding, pls how do I get started, I can't write a single code. What language do I start learning and how do I pattern my learning path, I would appreciate a step by step guide. Like learn this first, then this then this and probably link for courses or materials, thank you.
Easiest answer (which I didn’t follow because I did everything as a hobby): find blockchain job posts, read the job descriptions and skills needed. You’ll get the core skills you need from mapping out the most common ones listed
It looked like the interview was for a flutter dev role , which is usually related to app development. How did solidity come into the picture when they only found it interesting that you were taking the binance classes ? How was the transition from flutter to solidity ?
Hey man I'm in a similar situation. Lockdown started and I began a 4month bootcamp, remotely and I finished it, I'm currently working as a junior Full Stack engineer and I'm really considering a switch to blockchain development. I'm still learning JS and React at the same time would you recommend I also jump into solidity?
yeah Solidity is the based like the backbone. it is a must nowadays when learning Blockchain development. smart contract = Backend and js, reactjs web3js = front-end. they used all these javascript libraries in order to implement with methods(functions) you created in your smart contract.
I really want to do this. I have zero coding experience but I do love computers. I really think I can do this and want to change careers. I just don't have any clue wear to begin. Any advise?
By the way, this is the first I've heard of CS50, did you do this course and finish it? Should I try to do some of it to help with getting employment a few months down the road? Thanks
Awesome and inspiring from my namesake. I am currently on a Blockchain Dev journey, as a 'Traditional' Project Manager seeking to drift into the Blockchain PM role, this video was prompt (well done algorithm). I will really appreciate if you can give us an insight in your Blockchain Dev journey post 1 year. How has it been so far?
Hi Obina..a question? Which course do u recommend me to get from Udemy to start Blockchain programming from zero i have heard that is important to learn a web language like CSS3 or Java..then solidity..what do u suggest because there are tons of courses there..thanks

@@jhamar Nah “YOU” are a legend
You should Create something on the Ethereum Classic network. 👍
How much did the first course cost?
@@noahfadah7337 everything except Udemy was free
In a nutshell:
* CS50 -> Problem Solving is required, or any university level course in computer Science , ( waterloo U , Standford and MIT have open lectures on it )
* Flutter & Dart The complete guide , but... any js framework React , Vue, NextJs could be fine.
-> African Developer Masterclass -> A Solidity Bootcamp from Binance ( This one, but could be other way , not suitable for other nationalities i guess )
Thank you Obinna.
Thanks for shortening this for everyone! I’m still a beginner so might make little sense to do a whole video on it XD

I got interested and have been self-studying on blockchain technology. Got to know about CS50 as well and have bookmarked it as a next point of call....sort of taking my baby steps towards the developers route.
Since you're already ahead in that route, I felt it'd be a great idea to connect with you.
Proof-of-Motivation...🙇♂️
Man you're motivating. I'm currently a aws solutions architect associate as a cloud engineer, I want to learn cybersecurity and solidity programming
Super interesting story Obinna, thanks for sharing I might just delve into CS50
You are right about being constant with one framework!! thanks a lot for your insights
Should always learn new technologies, but for beginners, definitely prioritise mastery
Congratulations brother from Argentina!¡
Bro actually I like this video.. I just graduated from college here in Nigeria and u know how unemployment is a big issue over here so I recently started researching on block chain development and smart contracts.. Do you have any personal social media I can reach u so we can talk & work together or u guide me through these things bro.. Please am a beginner In this field and need good guidance.
Hey Obinna.
I purposely cam across your video. I've recently developed an interest in Blockchain development and technology. My friend literally explained in layman terms and it piqued my interest. So currently, I've decided to ditch learning front end skills like html, css and the likes and focus more on Blockchain skills.
I researched that learning C++ could be a great step in the right direction. I tried my hands in Python for a while but I didn't really feel comfortable with it. What do you think about C++? Do you have to use for your role as a Blockchain developer?
And also, any pep talk and inside knowledge into the whole Blockchain development world would be really helpful. Thanks so much!!
Good job sir ! Congratulations on your accomplishments ❤
Incredible stuff! Love to see black blockchain developers 🔥
You're an inspiration really. Thanks for sharing your story.
Talk about running into a fortunate opportunity! Not many are gonna share the same story as you after listening to it but it does give people some hope, I guess
Honestly the Binance certificate is backpacking my lack of experience XD
Great stuff brother. Keep moving higher.
Rooting for all black developers !!!
im gon say the N word
Nigga wat-
hahaha, that's sus comment man.
Why not just developers?
@@NameName-rn8tq I said what I said
Trying to find the free course.. Kindly help out.. Thanks
Thanks boss I will follow all the steps you mentioned 🙇🏽♂️ thanks 🙏🏽
Hey man! How did you find this program? Do you have any resources you could share? I’d love to do a course like this
Dude that's such a great story, congrats. Very inspiring stuff!
Thanks for sharing your experience. You are inspiring.
Hey Obinna! Very inspiring! Very interested to see how you do in the future.
Much respect bro, I will have my son watch it
That’s motivational! Thanks a lot for sharing 🙏
This is awesome man! You were prepared when the blessing came in!
Haha I guess that’s the definition of luck
WOW
rn now I'm just starting to get into Blockchain development and RUclips recommended this video
We thank the algorithmic gods 😅
Thank you for the advise! You are such amazing Obinna. I'm on the way being a blockchain developer, currently I'm in my learning path. Hope I will get the job too. I'm very very very willing to learn even after I learn so much things to prepare to become blockchain developer in my learning path. I'm serious with this, blockchain developer will be my serious career.
Good luck my friend!
@@ObinnaWGMI Thank you!
This is so cool bro..am looking at this niche too...I hope to reach out to you maybe u can guide me 🙃
bit confused, are you a blockchain developer? or flutter/dart dev? cuz they are two different things
You are incredible my friend
I'm a huge fan of blockchain & crypto and just like you, I'm not about trading, I want to position myself for the opportunities blockchain would be unfolding, pls how do I get started, I can't write a single code. What language do I start learning and how do I pattern my learning path, I would appreciate a step by step guide. Like learn this first, then this then this and probably link for courses or materials, thank you.
Easiest answer (which I didn’t follow because I did everything as a hobby): find blockchain job posts, read the job descriptions and skills needed. You’ll get the core skills you need from mapping out the most common ones listed
Thank you for sharing your story. It was inspirational.
It looked like the interview was for a flutter dev role , which is usually related to app development. How did solidity come into the picture when they only found it interesting that you were taking the binance classes ? How was the transition from flutter to solidity ?
This was a fullstack role. Just happened to be that the stack was web3
Hey man I'm in a similar situation. Lockdown started and I began a 4month bootcamp, remotely and I finished it, I'm currently working as a junior Full Stack engineer and I'm really considering a switch to blockchain development. I'm still learning JS and React at the same time would you recommend I also jump into solidity?
yeah Solidity is the based like the backbone. it is a must nowadays when learning Blockchain development. smart contract = Backend and js, reactjs web3js = front-end. they used all these javascript libraries in order to implement with methods(functions) you created in your smart contract.
Thank you for his eye opener. Keep winning🥳
Bro I do have a question for you.
How much salary package can a block chain developer get for his job?
congrats brother and Ja bless im bouta do exactly what you said cs50 first and go from there appreciate the info
I really want to do this. I have zero coding experience but I do love computers. I really think I can do this and want to change careers. I just don't have any clue wear to begin. Any advise?
Udemy!!
By the way, this is the first I've heard of CS50, did you do this course and finish it? Should I try to do some of it to help with getting employment a few months down the road? Thanks
100%
Awesome and inspiring from my namesake. I am currently on a Blockchain Dev journey, as a 'Traditional' Project Manager seeking to drift into the Blockchain PM role, this video was prompt (well done algorithm).
I will really appreciate if you can give us an insight in your Blockchain Dev journey post 1 year. How has it been so far?
hi, i also wanna become a blockchain dev and ur story is super inspirational - thank you!
Hi Obina..a question? Which course do u recommend me to get from Udemy to start Blockchain programming from zero i have heard that is important to learn a web language like CSS3 or Java..then solidity..what do u suggest because there are tons of courses there..thanks
Html, css, JavaScript. Haven’t taken a course on udemy so can’t really recommend any with good faith, but I know Academind is a decent teacher
@@ObinnaWGMI thanks, this was helpful
Hi Obinna I have zero know on programming. Can I take the flutter course directly? Or I need to learn other more basic stuff? thank you
