VanEck: Bitcoin Miner Exec Pay ‘Excessive’

July 11, 2025 Sama Tarek 1 min read Short News

Bitcoin mining executives’ pay packages are “aggressive” and “weakly aligned” with shareholder interests, VanEck reports. Average executive compensation reached $14.4 million in 2024, far exceeding IT and energy sectors, largely due to equity awards. Shareholder approval for these packages is only 64%, compared to ~90% in broader markets, signaling investor pushback against dilutive and unlinked pay structures.
