> 2. Try joining big security groups/org - You have a lot of knowledge, especially in RE/PWN fields so maybe try joining organizations that do security research full-time example Google Project Zero or there are loads of other organizations that does that kind of work. This will make life easier in sense of what you wanna do. By joining such groups/organizations you can choose to work on game engine/cheat-anti-cheat hacking or browser/OS security basically choose what you wanna hack.
Already got my foot in some cool groups, not really a work-together thing, but still filled with some very skilled people like pmnh (https://hackerone.com/pmnh?type=user) and zi (the guy from dayzerosec https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCXFC76FDHZRVes6_lZqwLBA). Joining big organizations like Google Project Zero seems very hard for me in my eyes haha. Would have no idea on how to get into them.
> 3. I saw someone mentions that you should think of getting certifications. Believe me, when I say it, certificates do nothing. I got my OSCP because people said it would help me get a job, but it didn't. Certificates are only for people who don't really have anything else to show or beginners in the fields trying to get their foot in the door. You already have an amazing profile showing that you are capable of doing RE/PWN stuff. Go for certifications only if you actually want to have fun and take on the challenge. Don't expect much change in your professional life from those certifications.
I'd say that's very much true, but certifications is still a nice-to-have on the side, but surely not a big change.
> If you just want big money, yes smart-contract seems to be the big hot thing. If you are looking to make a big name in the security field along with a decent(sometimes really good) amount of money then browser/OS security is definitely a good thing. In the just try them for 1 week/month and stick with something that you enjoy :)
Yea, especially now, smart-contract research pays big. I'm probably gonna look into both and decide on later on what to focus.
Thanks again man, much appreciated.
