IBM laid off 1,700 employees in June. Along with the company’s efforts to “align its focus on the high-value segments of the IT market,” IBM is seeking to aggressively hire blockchain talent.

“Blockchain skills are the priority. And we’re full-steam ahead of blockchain. We plan to grow for a very long time,” Jerry Cuomo, vice president of blockchain at IBM told CoinGeek.
