In the long run, if you’re good, they will come around and you can get a better deserved rate.
Having said that, $30 is a great hourly rate for South Asia (I’m from there), and will mean a lot of quick financial buffer and it helps stress wise.
We aren’t in US and it’s better to accept our reality. If the work culture isn’t what you are happy with, you can always use this experience and interview again in 6 months.

If a US based company is trying to hire in South Asia, almost certainly they’re trying to keep costs down. Try to get as good a deal as you can during signing, and then renegotiate after to get an even better deal if you know you’ve provided that much value. Don’t leave money on the table. The hiring market is insanely hot right now, don’t let it go to waste.
