A Toronto-area recuiter has mentioned a suprising amount of money for what appears to be a run of the mill cloud-aware ops job.
Berachain offers generous salaries ($400k) as well as STRONG Token Equity Packages ($300k p.a.) and amazing team culture, with an office based in Toronto
(Obvious answer is that the actual offer is lower, of course.)
I’m figuring the catch is something less obvious than:
- blockchain company
- headquartered in the Cayman Islands (https://twitter.com/berachain, https://github.com/berachain)
- pseudonymous founders pivoted from NFTs (https://finance.yahoo.com/news/defi-focused-layer-1-berachain-130000958.html)
Assuming for this post that this was a $400,000 salary with the usual corporate addons, how would somebody go about finding the catch that the salary is the red flag for?
How many catches do you need? Best case scenario, it’s some serial grifter high on his own hype and VC money. Would you expect a cayman islands cryptobro company to be above scamming anyone dumb enough to have anything to do with them?
I was definitely hoping it would be some kind of fascinating non-obvious catch. I think this thread is teaching me that often it’s just the usual everyday buttcoin catch.

I remind you of how Harry Clynch bluffed his way to a six-figure job with Binance on no evidence, and only dropped out at the point it would have been actual fraud:
