Selling what exactly, crypto? That shouldn’t be considered a sales job, a con job maybe 😅

where are you getting this data from?
what does "mid level" mean?

What would "high level" mean?

mid-level generally means 5+ years in tech sales with 1-2 years in crypto.
high-level would be 7+ years in tech sales with 2-4 years in crypto

If it's 150k worth of crypto, I wouldn't want the salary to begin with
The dollar is volatile enough right now, why the hell would I bank my compensation on a "stable coin" (a misnomer, btw)

Curious why you think "stablecoins" is a misnomer.
A stablecoin like USDC is financially regulated by the government and is backed 1 to 1 by dollar reserves

In theory for sure.

But "stablecoins" still fail and have there value drop below the dollar. It happens all of the time. There is no guarantees here.

the stellar role is for 7+ years of experience. Partnerships is not sales. The circle role sure has a range of 150-200 but only a 15% variable. Most sales roles in SaaS are a 50/50 split.
not sure what you're going for here. but please elaborate, happy to debate and add value but it seems a bit open-ended on what you're putting out

Are the two examples the outlier? Are the no commission? Both of the postings didn't talk commission, also saw you get paid in crypto curious how that works with the volatility

Most companies will give you the option of getting paid in crypto since people in the industry tend to be bullish on crypto.
You could get paid in ETH/BTC or in a stablecoin (backed 1to1 to the dollar so the price doesn't change
Or you can take your salary in 100% dollars

Ok, are they selling financial services, access to a platform? Crypto got crushed for the better part of the past 7 months

I'm curious to know what an AE in crypto does. I have so many questions.

Yeah, but they are paid in the coin that they are selling. So not sure if it’s worth it with the 2.5% transaction fees and another 2% cash withdrawal fee.

(Mostly joking)

Can you provide more details as to what you mean by "crypto"? Like working for an exchange? Particular project?

The definition of a bloated burn. Oh, and to have 2-3 years in crypto (actually blockchain) sales means you are only going to hire from a very very very small and niche talent pool. You demand a high salary based on your niche experience…that is currently falling out of the buzzword nest.
