Blockchain Dev a good idea for a complete beginner?

Came across a post by Alex Becker (annoying YT ads about dropshipping a few years ago, now selling high ticket ad tracking and showing other people how to make annoying YT ads… plus shilling NFTs).

How right is he in his last sentence here?

And to those who know about coding/dev:
- How would you recommend a total novice with no coding experience and little crypto knowledge go about becoming a “blockchain dev”?
- Is it worthwhile in your opinion?

“Not investing or playing in the NFT crypto game is fine. Being an entrepreneur and not deeply understanding the biggest BUSINESS opportunity boom of the last 20 years is not fine.
The opportunity in SaaS and Services is literally insane. Don't even get into gaming and finance. You could literally learn to be a blockchain dev, not even START a business and make millions.”

When asked how he suggested:

“Like any dev, just start making stuff and taking any class you can. I am by no means a experienced game dev, but I can write pretty complex games in C# after only 45 days experience. At that level this would be enough to get a multi 6 figure opportunity in crypto if it was blockchain focused, demand is insane.”

Is that true? You just need C# and blockchain interest?

Other people on the thread (I can read but not join in) suggested a few things, but my “scam course” spidy sensor is blinking at some of them:
- dapp University bootcamp
- cyptozombies (dot io?)... looks like free, make a nft game/token with coding type thing
- Learn RUST and Solana Dev

Someone else asked the question: “You think learning to be a block chain Dev right now would be not only possible but massively profitable? Even from a complete dev beginner?”

I guess that’s my real question. I did a little (real little) html years ago, so I think I could probably learn if I put my mind to it

Someone else replied to them:
“you need to have mad skills. People are already competing big time on prices. One blockchain dev quoted me 5 ETH to set up a minting process, next one dropped to 2 ETH. Final guy quoted me just $1000 and on Fiverr they ask $100-250 for a smart contract.”

Thanks

First, its a job.
Second, to turn it into business you need product (or service).
Third, blockchain can be fad and fizzle out.

If you want learning experience, go ahead.
Programming blockchains will teach you also to program other stuff.
While learning focus on the second one from above three.
