You are your own bank with bitcoins, so yeah nothing stops these workers to buy bitcoin in the end if they wish to do so.

Any other workers / business owners think of such a job hedge? Title: Re: Will Western Union & co (banks i.g) workers go for a hedge and buy bitcoin? Post by: Slowturtleinc on April 15, 2016, 07:35:16 PM As a worker they should be upgrading their skills for something else before the bubble breaks but I do not see this happening any time soon. Bitcoin does not cash cheques and it does not show up as cash at a location. Meaning you need more bitcoin atms for money transfers to work on the same level as western union.

Any other workers / business owners think of such a job hedge? Dude I don't understand what you mean by job hedge or fiat hedge. Hedge means an investment that is intended to balance out the losses incurred in other bad investment by a company. Why would WU PayPal or FX traders hedge in Bitcoins if their stocks aren't falling down? Can you elaborate more on that hedge you are talking about.

They cannot tell their employees what to buy or not in their personal life.While an employer can set rules and guidelines for working hours,they can't dictate their whole lifeTitle: Re: Will Western Union & co (banks i.g) workers go for a hedge and buy bitcoin?

In terms of a insurance for e.g. getting less paid from WU,... or in worst case lose your job. Bitcoin is getting up in price (by taking over that business) so it will compensate some of that. Hedge for fiat I hope I do not need to explain more in this forum or do you need this again? Title: Re: Will Western Union & co (banks i.g) workers go for a hedge and buy bitcoin?
