Frequently asked questions

Why does protocol hiring matter? +
Protocol hiring reveals strategic direction before on-chain activity or announcements. A surge in developer-relations roles at a Layer 2 signals ecosystem push. Compliance hiring at a custody firm like Fireblocks or Anchorage signals preparation for new regulated markets. The same pattern-recognition approach used for exchanges applies here — with a 60–120 day lead time.
How does protocol tracking differ from exchange tracking? +
Exchange tracking focuses on regulatory compliance roles, product team growth, and institutional sales — signals for new jurisdiction launches, product releases, and IPO prep. Protocol tracking focuses on core engineering roles, ecosystem growth (DevRel, grants), and governance — signals for network upgrades, TVL strategy, and cross-chain expansion. Different patterns, same methodology.
How often is data updated? +
The Signalmap scraper runs hourly, pulling fresh job listing counts from each company's ATS (Greenhouse, Lever, or Ashby). Signal scores are recalculated on each run and reflect the current week's hiring velocity relative to the prior 4-week average.
