Few truly grasp compensation math for a leading crypto researcher at Tempo. Vesting at least 0.5% equity on a $5 bil valuation, plus $500K base salary. After 5 years total comp is in the mid-eight figures; tens of millions, easy. What would you do for your family's future?

One of the Stablechain projects we put at the top of the list to watch, @tempo , received $500 million in investment with a $5 billion valuation Also today, @dankrad , one of Ethereum's most important researchers and developers, joined the Tempo team. Quite bullish… Stable

People giving shit to Dankrad for joining Tempo are fucking braindead. Acting like football fans when a star player leaves their favorite club. People can change jobs, it's perfectly fine. Dude has been there for almost a decade, give him some rest. It's obviously disappointing
