How much does a crypto security make? Base pay in crypto & web3 is competitive with big tech, and most teams add a meaningful token or equity grant on top, which can move total compensation well above the base, especially at earlier-stage companies. Figures below are annual base salary in USD; token/equity is shown separately because it’s highly stage-dependent.
