One thing worth mentioning is that if you pay more people in crypto, you're basically creating more demand and that's a great thing.
Think about it, if you pay someone in crypto, you're basically giving them an incentive to get involved in the crypto world. And now think about how many people are being paid in crypto, it'll spread like wildfire

Every person has a minimum that he spends every month. You can not get a salary in cryptocurrency. Those who hold coins for a long period of time have additional sources of funding. But we need basic income every day. Are you ready to get paid in cryptocurrency based on December prices? The use of cryptocurrencies is our own risk and the main income should be in Fiat.
Agree with you. Crypto good tool for make a international payment or payment for big contract. Not in P2P sector. |

Would you be fine with, or prefer, getting paid in crypto?
Why / why not? Does the amount you get paid for matter for you?
Like my salary for example, It's very nice to get paid with crypto as well as it is the same equivalent price in that particular date and the amount value of my salary, anyway it is not taxable and it can be use as investment, rather than to be paid by fiat money it is compulsory tax deduction in my country. |

Right now, let's say that I'm working for a crypto currency and think about such a question, store it in tokens or sell / exchange them.

Getting paid in crypto? Why not? I think if we start implementing this kind of method maybe others will try to do the same. It is also a kind of way to endorse to people what is cryptocurrency. Maybe some people won't like the volatility of the cryptocurrency but once the coins start going up, I think they won't be mad and thus, making extra money in return. But I think this is not enough to replace our current fiat.

Right now, if I will be paid in crypto of all of what I am doing in my life, I will accept it because as we all know we are very aware that cryptocurrency is very huge in the market right now and I think as time goes by the value of cryptos will increase more and more and I heard many stories that they are being paid in crypto and after several months or years they are now a successful human being. |

Well,i wont want to get paid in crypto until there is some proven price stability.Nowadays you wake up to a short bull run and a very long bear run which of course will always decrease the value of your earnings if you are to be paid in cryptos.Say in USDT,i will be fine because that is quite stable to some extent but bitcoin and other coins i wont want to be paid in for now.

What you said is important. We can agree to receive additional income in bitcoins. But if I was offered to receive the basic salary in bitcoins, I would refuse. It's very risky. I agree with you that the price always returns to the previous level. But how can I live up to this moment. Sometimes it takes 1-1.5 years for bitcoin to return to the previous price level. |

YES, I'll be happy to get paid in crypto, especially in Bitcoin. While the market is highly volatile, I believe in BTC will be more than worth after years. I convert BTC into cash how much exactly I need and the rest is my savings and investment at the same time. It has a good part, I can't save when I get hard cash in pocket, so it's better to save something even in crypto.

hahaha..that would be very cool though. Anyways this discussion has so many sides that it can be tackled from. First of all if I opt for a pay in crypto at the office, there's a higher possibility that everyone at the office would have to be paid so and this is the case that many people do not believe in crypto especially currently that the market is very very bad. Also the owner of the company i work (if it's a private job) at might not even himself/herself like crypto.
Also in the other way, remember that nothing is ever static in crypto so if your payment is in crypto it can either go up very high or you can loose all your salary. In addition, what would happen if the market price goes down, should your employer scale up your pay or it should remain as signed in the contract agreement. Salary is a long term thing and if your employer is to pay in Crypto then they would have to always change your salary which might be inconvenient.
So the fact is it would have been very awesome to get paid in crypto but there are a lot of constraints that would impede the smooth running of such an initiative. I would rather prefer to be paid in crypto in a one time contract job or freelance job

There's not much employers who will pay in crypto though. I still visit the job sites I use to go like upwork and most of the employers related to crypto or bitcoin are there but are not paying in BTc but USD. You can find some employers paying in BTC in xbtfreelancer.com but most of they pay cheap. Almost non are worth the work. You'd rather be accepting USD if you are a freelencer and work on upwork alone. There is one place though that you can work for someone and pays good in BTC, its here in bitcointalk.  |

Am not really against nor advise to getting paid with crypto in my office job.
Salary received from the office would be best in fiat so can be used for daily transactions or payments. ACryptocurrency is still not accepted as mode of payment in our country, though there may be a few that do but not in our region.
So I prefer getting paid with fiat for it, while prefer crypto payments for bounty campaigns.
