Will you accept bitcoin as your salary?

[safari88]

i would... you just need to learn a little about trading to make more of your salary, so if you have received 1 bitcoin as payment, wait a little pump and sell above the price when you were paid.

As i dont have much experience in the trading to i will not gonna recieve and accept my salary in bitcoins because that would make managing the money very difficult because every time i recieve my salary the bitcoin price will be different.

Ya never do that if you don't have experience in the trade. because I've experienced it and I thus losing a lot of money. but after all of that experience, I finally was able to get a lot of money from the trade. but still will not accept a salary with bitcoin, if real job better receive salary with fiat and if you want in salary with bitcoin I must work from bitcoin.

Trading is a harsh world. One tick it is going good and another tick it is going south. If you do not have the guts to trade you will be panic selling and you will be at loss all the time.

that's what I experienced while still a newbie in trading. but of course everyone will turn for the better when it's been getting a lot of experience. so the longer the people doing the trading, they will be experts and when the experts you need not worry, at least you can get better results from trade.

Yup and in beginning there is a full chance that you will commit mistake by making a wrong move which will result in loss but those mistakes will make you better trader in future.

I won't accept bitcoin as my salary anytime soon because I have to pay the bills with fiat and bitcoin is not accepted there.
So having to exchange back everytime would cost me a fortune in fees so i'd rather get fiat with my salary.

[Hallseplex]

I dont want to accept bitcoins as salary do you know why bitcoins are not here for just money they are here for investments and other things not for just buying stuff with it.

That's the right thing to do and we cannot afford to depend fully only on bitcoin as no one knows what future it holds and how long it will go so its better to get paid in fiat.

[Digital_Lord]

Not all salary. I still have to pay things that don't accept BTC(at leas taxes and stuff)

But part is a good option

yes . in most places bitcoin is not that much viral and can't be spend easily. but just because getting good jobs and earning money via bitcoin easier for me. I would love to get my full earning in bitcoin. and I am doing this.

Well here in my country it is ok that we can accept bitcoin as my salary and we can pay our bills directly from our bitcoin wallet that we can use here locally.. but the problem we can not still use bitcoin locally but we can pay in monthly bills and we can exchange bitcoin into giftcard that we can use to shop online like newegg..

So is your company paying you your salary in bitcoins or you are a full timer in bitcoin? As I haven't heard that any company has started to pay their employees in bitcoin yet.

I would accept a sum of it at least in bitcoin, it would save the time to exchange the usd to btc... although I have to say exchanging is becoming easier and easier right now with ready sites like circle rather than just peer to peer exchanges and deals. Anyway I would like it if it was possible to be paid in BTC.

No company will pay your salary in different parts as it will surely waste time of a company, and I don't think that a company with small turnover will prefer to go for bitcoins as they might not be aware about it.

Given half the chance, I'd like all my customers to pay me in BTCitcoin.

When the bitcoin price is not stable, the salary will be based on the US dollar. You can get bitcoin based on its dollar price.

That is a way to solve that problem but if you are going to do that then, why will you accept bitcoin in the first place? Wouldn’t be better to accept dollars instead of bitcoins?

Exactly as it is. Why bother to receive bitcoin if in the first place it was just a converted one and you will just used it quick once you receive it.

Earned bitcoin salary in those bitcoin works and work in the real world to earn fiat. That way bitcoin are just saved.

i guess there's exist an individual that fulfill his needs through bitcoin and pay everything with bitcoin or if it wasn't reached this stage yet,they're probably want to live in that way so they want to receive bitcoin as their salary

In my mind there is no doubt that a person like that exists, but for the rest of the people that want convenience that lifestyle is not appropriate for them.

People who cannot spend their coins directly will never prefer to accept salary in bitcoins as they need to convert their bitcoin to fiat first and every time they need to pay the fees which won't be profitable.

Wow. Interesting bitcoin as salary... yes because nowadays bitcoins become larger and larger worldwide.

I agree, bitcoin can be huge so accepting it now  as salary can give us an option to have an investment while we are working.   This is indeed a great opportunity because it is very rare to have a job  and investment at the same time.  Mostly people will have a job first then invest later years of their life.

Working people with bills to pay aren't interested in having Bitcoin as their salary since the fluctuations can be too severe at times with panic in the market.

It's no fun to see the salary that you have worked so hard for decrease considerably in quite a short time.

People looking for Bitcoin as an investment can simply buy the amount they want with a part of their salary if they so wish.

My answer is No. I will not accept Bitcoin as my salary. I will do business with Bitcoin. I will accept Bitcoin as my online business payment, but I will not take Bitcoin as my salary. Because the main reason is Bitcoin price, it is not stable. In this time I am not interested in taking risk. So I like Bitcoin, but I will not accept Bitcoin as my salary.

Exactly we are earning bitcoins in many ways but that is our passive income and not the primary one, and we cannot afford to put our monthly income at risk by getting paid in bitcoin due to its price volatility.

Indeed having the same idea about that, its simply not stable and due to that also not secure to get payed in it, maybe in the future I will but right now I will for sure not do this.

I would I not!?
Bitcoin is just the same as money nowadays, and my opinion it is far more valuable than Fiat, so if I could I would receive all my monthly salary in bitcoin

As mentioned a few posts above in this thread, accepting your entire salary in Bitcoin is a very dumb thing to do. Especially when you have recurring monthly expenses such as mortgage bill, power bill, insurances, your car(s), and more. You also have to make sure your family doesn't suffer from it. All aspects that you have to deal with when you have such responsibilities. It isn't all that easy.
