Yeah I wonder what a compensation package for someone like Tadge would look like, and what intangibles convinced him to join Lightspark over the endless number of other companies that would have hired him in a heartbeat.
Assuming this is full time and not some kind of research advisor role, his total comp is probably easily 7 figures with a lot of autonomy and budget to do what he wants.
This post prompted me to learn something about Tadge Dryja. Obviously a brilliant guy. This interview gave me a different, non fan boy perspective on bitcoin: https://blog.btcbox.jp/en/archives/10621
A few months ago, I read about Lightspark, a new company whose goal is to “explore, build and extend the capabilities and utility of Bitcoin.” “Huh.” I thought, “That’s also been my goal for the last decade or so.”
I’m excited to share today that I’m joining the Lightspark team to work on building out Bitcoin and LN to be even more powerful forms of money and payments. #Lightspark #Bitcoin #LightningNetwork
He used to be against the BOLT spec and the turn CLN/LND/Eclair have given to the Lightning Network he invented. Will be interesting to learn what he will do now.
That's a good get! I hope they're paying him a bajillion dollars (rumor is they raised 9 figures).

Awesome for a company this we’ll capitalized to get someone this good. Can’t wait to see what they build.

the comment about inflation not being high didn't age well :D
From Tadge on Twitter:
they just need to pull Poon out of retirement now to have the Complete Set (LN paper authors)
