I can't judge whether the actual programming there is fun, but I can't imagine an environment where bugs get exploited to the tune of tens of millions of dollars can be all that fun, and the entire field seems to be built on fraud, scams, and finding greater fools.

I suspect a nontrivial number of programmers in that field will find themselves making license plates or exploring harbors with concrete shoes a few years from now.

The bugs don’t affect the programmer or the company, assuming there even is a company

And the programmers have easily translatable skills, so nice try at making a point but it doesn’t make sense when there is a real conversation to have

But you werent actually here to debate the differences in how that could affect programmers in that industry vs other industries

Your preconceptions are a random incoherent mixture of things that are oddly excusing bad actors or bad companies by ignoring them and conflating it with blaming a specialized skillset or sector

You could have kept all that in your head because this was clearly a copypasta rebuttal prepared for any conversation about crypto
