If I like cryptography, programming and pure math, what should I do and build in crypto?

Depends on what you want to focus on — there’s a number of opportunities, but if you want to stay aligned to pure cryptography, MPC related work is probably the right niche — in existing networks there are MPC wallets that use threshold cryptosystems, some new networks are using MPC more broadly than signing

Zero knowledge proofs can be another niche to get into as well, though that typically narrows your scope to protocol work
