Frequently asked questions
What kind of research pays best in crypto?
Cryptography and protocol research pays the most, followed by investment research at funds and trading firms.
Is web3 pay in tokens or cash?
Usually both. Most roles pay a cash or stablecoin salary, and many add tokens or equity on a vesting schedule. Token upside can raise total pay a lot at early-stage projects, but it carries more risk than cash, so compare the cash part first.
