Blockchain Developer salary in India
Blockchain Developer compensation cooled from 2021 peaks but fintech and enterprise pilot roles remain for Solidity/security depth. Tutorial projects do not clear product bands.

|---|---|
| 0–2 years | 6–12 LPA |
| 3–5 years | 10–20 LPA |
| 5–8 years | 16–30 LPA |
