Wyoming is seeking an executive director who will oversee the state’s stablecoin project—and earn a bigger wage than Governor Mark Gordon.

The appointee must devise and implement a business plan for the token on a $150,000 annual salary, according to a job posting dated July 20. That’s more than the $140,000 paycheck attached to the governor’s role.
