I doubt if the bitcoin ecosystem is mature enough that anyone is keeping over 50% of the BTC they earn. Fiat is still needed to pay most business expenses, I'm guessing. There are a few examples of some employees being paid in BTC though.

Agree. Or they should have ridiculously high margins.  :)

overstock.com keeps 10% of all their bitcoins sales in the form of bitcoins. I think that is a WIN as they have a huge turn over. For others they should consider giving something back or keeping some for sure. Though soon it wont matter as the ecosystem speeds up to a point that it is being bought and used as much as it is being traded for fiat.

:D

I still haven't heard of such services, but hoping for that matured economic community.

Sorry bad english i meant  profit.
I don't expect anyone to pay business expense with bitcoin they kept, that's why i ask about keeping profit.
Instead of keeping it in fiat a company could very well keep it partly in form of bitcoins before reinvesting it later (by selling probably).
This is just taking risk on the  profit not the turnover ...
