An H1B is a three year visa. The new proclamation itself expires after a year unless it's renewed, but it didn't actually adjust any other rules of the visa to my knowledge.
So the one year seems to be the trial policy of the $100K, but it sounds like it's a single payment per visa, then normal visa policy comes into play.
They are. And in the truly talented spaces there are many at all of the ranges in between.

$100k for three to six years seems entirely reasonable if it's really such a critical need.
