> Does everyone at Oxide have the same equity grant?

> equity compensates for risk – and in a startup, risk reduces over time: the first employee takes much more risk than the hundredth.

I think that paragraph answers the question pretty clearly. As an Oxide employee you will get equity. It will generally be less than the people that came before you, but more than people that come after you. So it's obviously not the same as everyone else

It doesn’t answer it clearly at all.

Do two people hired at the same time get the same equity? Or is there room for one candidate to get more equity due to their experience or simply because they negotiated more?

Obviously early employees get more equity. The question is whether or not there’s room for negotiation. They heavily imply that everyone is paid the same, but all of those claims are about base salary.
