A useful thought experiment:
How much more tokens/equity/RSU's would you buy if you were paid in all cash? If you could buy them at a discount, how much would you buy?
If you wouldn't buy thousands of dollars of this token if you were compensated completely in cash, you probably shouldn't take the tokens.
- baby 8y agoRSUs are different right? Since you can sell them right away. Although they might lose value during your vesting schedule. Writing this, I now realize that a company doesn't necessarily have to be public to give you RSUs.
- stanleydrew 8y agoSeems you realized this already, but RSUs are only sellable right away if there's a buyer right away. For publicly traded equities this is almost always the case. But plenty of private companies issue RSUs as well. I have some in a few companies currently for which there is no market.
