sg-tech-list's Issues

crypto != web3

Currently the companies listed under the crypto category include crypto exchanges as well as DeFi/web3, but the skill sets required for the most typical tech roles at these companies are not exactly the same. For example, a software engineer at Binance won't necessarily need to know Solidity but most web3 companies would require that. I think it would be nice to have a new category called web3 to host those DeFi/web3 companies. Let me know. I can raise a pull request for this.

im a moron

title says it all

Monetization?

In the intro, it says:

The list is not meant to be exhaustive. I am not affiliated to any companies listed.

But you definitely know people who work in some of the companies listed, so somewhat "indirectly affiliated".

Since most tech companies hand out referral bonuses anyways, why do you do them such a favour by listing their names here, without, you know, making some money?

Possible turning this repo into a full-fledged web app that connect job applicants to insiders? I know, I know, headhunting is not new business, but it is definitely profitable.
