Outside of publicly traded crypto companies you need to talk to a third party recruiter in that space
Solana Labs, for example, one of many, was paying engineers $650,000 back in 2019-2020 (and still is) to mostly write in Rust. Compensation was ~$200k cash and $1.6-$2 million in Solana tokens vesting 3-4 years with 1 year cliff. Solana tokens were $.10 cents back then, so those engineers are sitting on like $100 million+ as Solana trades at $100/sol now, down from $250/sol.
For more typical results, companies that pay in crypto only have a few employees so giving them all a few million dollars in their much smaller less successful crypto still results in being able to liquidate close to the notional value they started with, derisking your time and coming out ahead in general. A “tiny” crypto is still like a $30 million marketcap. Even the $300 million marketcap ones are considered tiny. Market depth / liquidity is usually enough to support a few million dollars of periodic employee sell pressure.
