Remote blockchain & AI jobs
Remote job listings in blockchain/Web3 and AI/ML from public job boards, with scam red flags and a guide to checking employers.
Listings come from third-party job boards. Mericulum does not verify employers. Always check a company before applying and never pay to get a job.
What is a task or "optimization" job scam?
You are offered easy online work — rating products, "optimizing" apps or boosting orders — and see a growing balance. To unlock it you are told to deposit your own money or crypto first. The balance is fake and the deposits are lost.
How do fake recruiters and fake company sites work?
Scammers copy real company names, logos and job ads, or build a look-alike website, then contact you on LinkedIn, Telegram or WhatsApp. They use personal or look-alike email addresses and push you to move fast.
What are pay-to-start and starter-kit schemes?
Any job that asks you to pay a fee, buy training, equipment or a "starter kit" before you start is a red flag. Real employers pay you; they do not charge you to get hired.
What is money-mule recruitment?
Some "payment processor" or "crypto agent" jobs ask you to receive money or crypto and send it on to others. This is often money laundering: moving money or crypto for others can make you criminally liable, even if you did not know where it came from.
Can a fake job offer steal my crypto?
Yes. Fake offers may ask you to install a "test project", meeting app or coding task that contains malware, or to connect your wallet to a site for "onboarding" or "payroll". Either can empty your wallet.
How to verify a company
- Find the company's official website yourself and check that the job is listed on its careers page.
- Check that the company and the recruiter have a real, consistent LinkedIn presence.
- Expect emails from the company's own domain, not a free email address or a look-alike domain.
- Never pay to get a job — no fees, deposits, training or starter kits.
- Never share your seed phrase or private keys, and do not send ID documents before a verified written offer.
- Do not install software or connect your wallet at a recruiter's request.
