PANews reported on May 7th, citing Bloomberg, that several Wall Street firms have recently posted dozens of digital asset-related positions, including JPMorgan , BlackRock , Morgan Stanley , Bank of America , Fidelity , BNY Mellon , and Nasdaq . The annual salaries for these positions are mostly between $ 200,000 and $ 270,000 , but candidates generally require experience in both traditional finance and the crypto space. JPMorgan plans to launch two tokenized products in 2026 and is building its digital asset team through internal training and external recruitment. In contrast, crypto-native companies have seen a significant contraction in hiring demand due to price corrections and layoffs. Data from the Blockchain Association shows that the number of job postings has decreased by more than half compared to the 2022 bull market peak, with the focus in 2026 shifting towards institutional business development in areas such as ETFs , asset tokenization, custody, and compliance.
