where can I work in the blockchain field?

Hi everyone, I'm a 17-year-old boy with experience in the theoretical field of the blockchain, from how it works to how it can be used (including the various crypto, defi, smart contracts and defi fields). I'm passionate about this new technology and I approached it about a year ago and I'm training myself as a self-taught with all the information I can deliver. I wanted to ask myself a simple question that I have had for several months now, can this passion of mine be transformed into a real job in the near future in the workplace? as a blockchain consultant, as a developer I can't understand the job opportunities... since I don't have skills in the development field, in your opinion it is better to train in them or you can aim for other areas for example working as a consultant for companies or start-ups up? p.s in Italy most people do not know this new technology and there are many job opportunities.
