Ranges reflect estimated compensation bands for this employer, modeled by Orbyt from role-level premiums applied over national medians. They are estimates, not reported offers. The salary figures on this page are computed estimates, not observed wages. Each one is a national role baseline scaled by a Bureau of Economic Analysis Regional Price Parity cost-of-living multiplier (2025 index) and rounded to the nearest $1,000. No published wage percentile is consulted and no wage survey response enters the calculation, so an Orbyt estimate must not be cited as a Bureau of Labor Statistics figure or as measured pay. The published wage data Orbyt holds is Bureau of Labor Statistics Occupational Employment and Wage Statistics, and Department of Labor H-1B Labor Condition Application filings, which record a filed minimum visa base wage rather than market pay. Where BLS publishes a wage for the occupation a role maps to, it is shown on that role's page as a separate benchmark, labelled with its occupation code, metro area and the number of employed workers it covers. Last updated August 2026.

Coinbase is a major employer. Orbyt tracks 1 occupation Coinbase is known to hire, and the highest-paid of them by published national median is Software Developers, at $135,980 in the BLS May 2025 release. These are occupation-level government statistics, not Coinbase pay; Orbyt does not publish a Coinbase-specific salary figure.

What BLS publishes for occupations at Coinbase.

Published national medians from the BLS Occupational Employment and Wage Statistics May 2025 release and May 2024 release, for the occupations Orbyt tracks at Coinbase. BLS publishes per occupation, never per employer, so these are occupation-level benchmarks, not Coinbase pay.

Two releases are shown as published cells. BLS advises against reading OEWS releases as a time series, so no growth rate is computed between them. Full dataset: the Orbyt Company Salary Index, CC BY 4.0.
