In the news, Coinbase announced earlier this week that it will pause hiring and cancel several job offers. The cryptocurrency company said it might be put to test by volatility and larger economic factors. Coinbase's decision has left hopeful candidates in limbo.

One of them, a college graduate, told CoinDesk that they were set to start their job in September. “Now I’m scrambling to get something and most companies are either filled up or frozen hiring,” they said. The candidate had passed on three job offers to come work for Coinbase — considered a stable cryptocurrency company.

Another person was about to quit his Wall Street job for Coinbase but, fortunately, came to know about the development in time.
