#数字资产行情上升 I heard that the head of the Chinese region at a leading exchange has a monthly income exceeding $1.5 million. This number definitely grabs attention—no wonder it's jokingly called the "Work Emperor."

Breaking it down, the base salary is about $875,100, with bonuses and dividends pushing it to this figure. It sounds outrageous at first, but from another perspective, this exchange's annual revenue is roughly $5-6 billion, comparable in size to some top compliant platforms.

With such a large Chinese user base, as the person responsible for the most important language region, earning top-tier compensation is logically justifiable. But honestly, such disclosures often contain some speculation, and the actual probability might not be that high.

Having not been involved in the exchange system myself, can industry insiders come forward and tell the truth? How much of this is actually true?

Wake up, everyone. This $1.5 million figure is completely unfounded; it's just a fabricated number game. Monthly income of $1.5 million? Come on, I want to see which exchange is so generous. The crypto world is shrinking its staff now. A base salary of $87,000 is outrageous. Who would believe that? Industry friends, please come out and debunk this. In reality, reaching $300,000 to $500,000 is already the limit; the rest are "theoretical bonuses," as you all know. I just want to know where this scoop came from and which small account is spreading rumors. Blowing it up won't help. Exchanges are having a tough time these days. Who can still afford this kind of treatment? There's no point in dissecting it. This is just clickbait that preys on anxiety—looks good but no one can verify it.

1.5 million dollars? Sounds like a story, but the Chinese community is indeed a gold mine. --- The "Work Emperor" haha, sounds good, but in reality, it's just being supported by the retail investors. --- These numbers are definitely inflated; I don't believe industry insiders would be so generous. --- Compared to a monthly salary, I more want to know what they'll do if the exchange suddenly crashes. --- Is it really possible to get so much just because the Chinese user base is large? Then they should have revolted long ago. --- Leaks are just leaks; 99% are imagined. Don't take them seriously. --- Can anyone confirm? It feels like just a rumor, rumor, rumor. --- If they really had that income, they'd have already started a crypto business, why still be working a job? --- Base salary of 870,000? Plus bonuses? I'm really envious. --- I’ve always been skeptical of these internal salary leaks; who would really talk about it openly?

Monthly income of 1.5 million dollars? Sounds like a PowerPoint presentation during a bull market; its authenticity is questionable.

1.5 million dollars monthly salary? Just listen, most of this gossip is probably made up. --- The exchange's dividend system has always been a black box; no one can really figure it out. --- Is the Chinese community worth that much? It feels like most of the money in the crypto world has been taken by the management. --- A workaholic emperor? I think it's just a story told by the emperor. --- If the income were really that high, I wouldn't need to work anymore, and I wouldn't be exposing this. Use your own judgment. --- 50-60 billion in revenue compared to a top company, but can the profit margin be the same, my friend? --- How much are you willing to pay for insider information? Now even exposing secrets is a business. --- An $870,000 base salary is outrageous. Is this real data? --- The majority of Chinese users are many, but the exchange has to be willing to share the profits themselves. --- At least 70% of it is water, the remaining 30% is just hype.

1.5 million dollars? Come on, who would believe that? --- The dividend part is definitely exaggerated; industry friends are coming out to debunk it. --- Workaholic emperor? I think it's just a dream of being a workaholic emperor. --- A base salary of 870,000 is already outrageous, and the bonuses and dividends that follow are even more inflated. --- If it were really possible to earn that much, would I still be posting updates on Twitter every day? --- Such figures are usually triple-boosted; believing half of it is already rational. --- The Chinese community is indeed important, but I have to say, that's a bit too exaggerated.
