Title: Are there any BTC direct deposit options? Post by: Elwar on August 08, 2012, 02:09:12 PM With my company I can choose a percentage of different accounts that I want my paycheck to go into.
Right now it is 100% into my checking account, but it would be great if I could specify 10% going into an account that converts it into a Bitcoin address for me. Sure I can do this manually by transferring a certain amount each pay period to Dwolla and then to MtGox and then purchase BTC. But it would seem reasonable that a Bitcoin company would do well providing such a service. Title: Re: Are there any BTC direct deposit options?

You can do it as frequently as every hour and any tiny amount. No fees!
