Programmers wages in America are for the vast majority of the world obscene as well.
It depends where do you draw the line, American programmer is most likely the 1% for the world.
Don’t really see the relevance here? America is also more expensive than the majority of the world. I’m not comparing the wealth of impoverished people to the average American programmer. I am comparing the wealth of Coinbase employees to the wealth of the Coinbase CEO, whose company is successful only because of those employees. If the American programmer is global 1%, then Armstrong would be global 0.001% so the inequality isn’t changed.
