Crypto companies have leased to rent the United States after the new law and clarity of regulations are reversing the years of flights abroad, according to industry experts.
Hugh Norton-Smith, co-founder of the Crypto Recruiting Company Intersection Growth Partners, told Cointelegraph that his company was “now seeing a massive redesign of crypto talent-provided by regulatory clarity locked (in the US).”
Most of that clarity comes from the new crypto law in Congress, especially the Genius ActA law that sets clear policies for stablecoins in the country and is signed by US President Donald Trump’s law in July.
A year ago, “Every US crypto company has a Dubai contingency plan or similar. Every protocol foundation has bail with Caymans,” Norton-Smith said. Today, Dubai and Singapore offices are “becoming outposts,” and “90% of our leadership searches are based on the US.”
Marieke Flant, former CEO of the Near Foundation and Board Member of the Mina Foundation, said the Crypto rent in the US was “certainly active” in 2025, while demand for crypto talent remained stable in the Middle East, especially in Dubai. “In Europe,” he said, “many are asking for tradfi with crypto experience.”
Norton-Smith said the company is dedicated to recruiting a “bilingual executive” that can bridge both traditional finances and crypto. He noted that the demand leases moved from developers and officials to compliance with commercial duties such as marketing, business development and partnerships, while companies are pursuing market sharing.
“Crypto has built incredible infrastructure ready to roll,” he said. “Now someone has to sell it and get the size of the users.”
According to the list of crypto jobs, the average The Global Web3 Salary is about $ 103,000 per year, with the top 10% of roles earn about $ 160,000 and under 10% closer to $ 18,000. The site is based on its estimates in thousands of unknown submissions and job postings.
“Crypto continues to be a very fast and emerging industry,” says Flamment, “so having a constant thinking of development and ready to know every day remains a basic skill.”
