Salaries for Web 3.0 developers – How much do they earn?

Web 3.0 represents the next phase of the internet evolution. It’s an incredibly lucrative market, and demand for Web 3.0 developers is continuously growing, despite several ‘crypto winters‘ or overall economic downturns. With Web 3.0 principles relying on decentralization, it is no surprise that most companies in this space are fully remote and work with distributed teams. In such a dynamic market, many raise the question: What are competitive Web 3.0 developer salaries?

To answer simply: The average Web 3.0 developer salary is $100k – $140k per year (in 2022).

For example, a US-based developer with a solid NFT/blockchain or crypto project portfolio can earn well over $500k per year. In the meantime, the average salary for junior+ (up to 3 years of experience) Smart Contract Developer will be $120k.
