Bitcoin development and cryptography in general require a significant amount of experience and understanding of various cryptographic systems. This is also the reason behind the struggle of banks and financial institutions in searching for talented cryptographers and Blockchain developers.
For instance, William Mougayar, the author of the book ‘The Business Blockchain’, stated by mid-2016, global IT industry had merely 5,000 active developers devoted in the development of Bitcoin, Blockchain and cryptocurrencies.
