Julia Leung, head of the Securities and Futures Commission of Hong Kong, said that bitcoin has shown resilience as an alternative asset, having survived several boom and bust cycles.

She disagrees with the view that cryptocurrencies have no intrinsic value, although she believes that they are highly speculative and extremely volatile.

Leung is also confident that distributed ledger technology (DLT) is “not going anywhere.”

To start your Solidity developer journey, it is important to follow certain steps that will help in mastering this programming language and creating smart contracts. Here is a step-by-step process that will help you become a successful Solidity developer:

Learning the basic concepts of Solidity: Start by learning the basic concepts of the Solidity programming language such as data types, operators, variables, functions, and data structures

Going Deeper into Solidity: After mastering the basic concepts, go deeper into learning Solidity by creating smart contracts. This will help you better understand the language and Ethereum

Gaining hands-on experience: Create your own pet project, freelance or find other ways to put your knowledge to practical use

Choosing a blockchain: Decide which blockchain you want to work with in the future. Currently, the most popular ones are Ethereum and Solana with the Solidity and Rust languages

Building a portfolio: Developing a portfolio is an important aspect of becoming a skilled Solidity developer. A portfolio allows you to showcase your skills and experience

Additional training: If you don't have time to learn development on your own, you may want to consider enrolling in courses that offer Solidity training and everything you need to build decentralised applications

By learning these steps and putting in the effort, you can start your journey in developing on Solidity and become a successful developer in the field.
