When it comes to smart contract developer salaries, transparency sounds good in theory but gets tricky in real life. Especially for remote teams, it’s hard to know how much is “too much” to ask for.
How do you handle salary discussions so they stay fair and transparent? What have you seen that builds (or breaks) trust?

Over-anchoring during salary talks can really damage trust. Instead of fixating on a specific number too early, try to approach the discussion with curiosity and respect. It helps to talk in terms of the value you bring. For example, you could say something like, “By improving our testing habits, I can help reduce regression risks and make releases more reliable.” This shifts the focus from just money to meaningful contribution, which usually builds a healthier, more transparent negotiation.

I once negotiated too early and a senior warned me: “Earn the right through progress, then talk numbers.” That time I felt it was very harsh but now feel he was right.
