Smart contract Audits and creation is pretty lucrative, with payment for work generally in a currency that's not in a period of 'Transitory Inflation'. I've been learning rust/ substrate tho, ETH is a bit dated by now.

And instead in a currency that's in a period of 'Transitory Panic Selloff'.

haha, touche.

In all fairness, if you didn't take some profit over the last 6 months the fault lies within.

Fiat currencies are manipulated! -> Elon tweets -> Surprised pikachu face.
You can do any kind of work and once paid convert it to ETH so getting paid in it is no difference (I’d say it is more inconvenient as you need to convert some to fiat and then deal with taxes)
Well, most blockchains pay in their native token. Most of these companies are have $B's next to their market cap but are very cash poor.
Any advice for someone looking to get into the field?
Read the rust book, learn substrate and ink.
