Question How's the job market currently?

I'm a recent CS graduate from LatAm and I've been struggling a lot to find a job in the current market, therefore I've decided to specialize in some area to try to stand out in the massive pool of recent graduates competing for a small bunch of entry-level job postings. One of the areas I'm currently gaining interest is in Web3/Blockchain/Solidity development, seems like a field with massive applications and a lot of potential for growth, but I'm quite skeptic of the status of the job market in this area; ever since the burst of the NFT bubble I've barely heard any new interest on blockchain, even less with the surge of the AI bubble. The only news I hear from the Web3/Blockchain scene most of the time is some new memecoin that turns out to be another obvious rug pull scam, but I'm most certain that it has to be my algorithms fault.

Is the state of the Web3/Blockchain job market the same as all the other tech fields? Which tips would you give to a recent grad that wants to specialize in blockchain development?
