Will you accept bitcoin as your salary?

[LegendaryMiner]

At a moment I will not prefer to get paid in bitcoins as price is not high and there is no guarantee that it will be even higher in future so it will be a huge risk to take.

you don't need the price to be high in order to receive bitcoin as your salary. if you think the current price is low, then it means that your salary will get you more bitcoins as result compared to when the price is really high. that's the benefit.

There is a lot of uncertainty, that's why I would not go all in one, the market is still developing and gradually gaining stability.

I might not accept the total salary in bitcoins at the present moment, but I would accept part of the salary in bitcoins. and I probably would have no problems in accepting full payment in the future.

[Blackmet]

Nope, i don't need it, maybe better to keep bitcoins as side income, bitcoins is not popular in my country and i don't ready to exchange my salary everytime.

You don't have to wait till your employer starts with paying you (partly) in Bitcoin. Just convert like 5 or 10% of your salary every month to Bitcoin and you will have the same effect. You can save up these coins, or simply spend them in places they accept Bitcoin.

In Europe there is a hot new pertaining to a company whose going to introduce paying bitcoins to their employees. But given the instability of the bitcoins market value is it an advantage for the employees or an disadvantage. In my opinion this kind of payment for salary is not yet beneficial to employees not until bitcoins price has become stabled. Though if bitcoin will start to increase its monetary value it can be advantageuos but if not then it is a peril to the employees. So what do you think, what is your opinion on this matter?

I cannot accept bitcoin as my salary even I'm not a employee at the present time now, Because the disadvantage that I saw from it, is the ups and down of the price of bitcoin/fluctuation. Unless the price is fix to 1000$

I think there will always be fluctuations in bitcoin and I think characterizes it will not disappear from the bitcoin? if you want to work only when bitcoin becomes stable. I think until whenever you are never going to accept bitcoin. because bitcoin will always fluctuate

I would not accept Bitcoin as an salary because the Bitcoin is not stable and that means that your salary is also not going to be stable which is really needed when you are talking about a salary.
For me it would not be possible because I need to be sure on how much money I am going to make this month.

Exactly we would never be able to figure out what exact amount will be holding at the end of the month and that makes it really risky, sometimes it may exceed but when it will go down it will have huge impact on our life.

[droizs]

I would not mind receiving 1/4 of my salary in BTC, but not 100%. That could work like saving method when I hold them in a BTC wallet, it would be less propitious to spend money and in the future I could end up very rich.

[peta4e]

Yeah I will prefer to accept my salary in bitcoins, and I will use only that amount which is required and will prefer to save more for the future as I am sure price will be higher in future which will give me more money.

[Newcoins2020]

Yeah I will prefer to accept my salary in bitcoins, and I will use only that amount which is required and will prefer to save more for the future as I am sure price will be higher in future which will give me more money.

I would never do this because the fact is the billings and all that kind of stuff is in my normal currency, that I have to covert them every month again and again.
I just do not see this happen for me, maybe in about 10 years but right now I'm saying a big no to it.

[aamarket]

I'd go 50/50 BTC - USD

Exactly and when it comes to paying bills we cannot for the price to go higher, we need to sell them at any  price its holding, and if price is lower at a moment then it will be a loss to us.

Well i think you need to look for a new job that does not implement bitcoin as salary if you are working at a company that pays only bitcoin right now.  I think the freedom to choose what company we want to work with is ours but the method of payment is still in discretion of the company.  If the company implement a full bitcoin salary you have no choice but to accept it or look for another company.

It will take long time for the companies to start paying their employees in bitcoins as even companies find it risky to invest in bitcoins because of its price volatility, so till it happens its better to go with fiat.

The only company I know that will pay its employee in bitcoin is the overstock. The employee can select the portion of the bitcoin.

That sounds great, if employees have an option to choose the percentage of salary to be paid in bitcoins then it can really work, as the amount that they choose can be directly saved for the future.

Absolutely not! IT is not a very wise decision to take salary in BTC  at least now. BTC price is very unstable and it can go way down any time.

SO if in your salary day bitcoin price is $750 then you will receive less amount of bitcoin. But if on the second day bitcoin price goes down to $650, you will be in a huge loss. One should not experiment with their salary.

It can be also become $850 the next day.

But you know if ever price increase or decrease will happen we have to be on the safe spot so just accept your salary as a fiat and let your own bitcoin work to gave you bitcoin in regular basis.

[resilientknight]

At the present moment, Bitcoin still has not enough liquidity and stability in the market. So I believe that accepting btc as the main salary would be a better measure to be taken in the future.

[zodin]

yes i want to receive my salary in bitcoin it will be really so much pleasure but if my department become ready to pay me in bitcoin, i know that my department will not ready to pay me my salary in bitcoin because bitcoin is still not legal in my state.

[virtualkeybuyer]

but if it is started in the present then more people will become aware with this currency and the stores will started to accept it for their payment and you will see more physical exchanges in your country so it will not be any hurdle for you with bitcoin at the time when bitcoin is started to be given as salary instead of fiat.
