Will you accept bitcoin as your salary?

[Mbokani]

I am wiiling to accept bitcoin as my sallary since I'm already using it. Some employers in upwork have now the given option to pay their freelancers with BTC. But it should be depend on the tasker if he will accept it, so before he applies it is important to know first what kind of currency will be paid.

If bitcoin had a stable price range i would gladly accept bitcoin and since that is not the case i would find it as a risky process to take your salary in bitcoins,getting paid for freelance works are fine but as an employee to demand your wages in bitcoin,you must have some guts.I would rather purchase coins if i want to with my fiats rather than the other way around.

Imagine u get paid like $3000 worth of bitcoins then the next day the $3000 worth of bitcoins dropped by a huge margin to $1000. U are essentially screwed.

Now it is very risky to get all the salary in bitcoins due to the unstable course. It's like playing in a casino. You can win or lose, but you have to work equally. I would agree to receive only some of the salary in bitcoins.

[leexhin]

Yeah I would surely accept it as my salary I will really love it if that ever happens.

[pecson134]

I won't still accept bitcoins as a means of paying me as my salary. Since bitcoins is still volatile the salary I earn also tends to change its values as time goes by. So in this form you need to change it to money in order to meet the exact salary you were earning.

Bitcoins are awesome, but i would not take them for salary because bitcoins are not stable and you could lose your money if you need cash, and BTC price is low

Bitcoin seems more reliable than fiat currency of my country so, I guess, it could be a good option.

Fiat is the best currency in the world. I mean by the parameters that fit a simple people. This is for programmers and other Internet figures that bitcoin fits best, and the working class wants to think less after a hard day's work.

[denzelc]

Probably not. Still prefer cold hard cash. Or just bank into my account. Paypal is fine though.

interesting question, but difficult to answer. because bitcoin has a rapid change with fluctuating considerable range between the upper and lower limits

Fluctuation is not reason to inhibit a consistent salary
it takes strong desire to monitor every day in trade market, all traders understand this, they like something that continues to fluctuate. Bitcoin is not for passive investment, so take the liveliness of price monitoring.

[angkasaz]

why not, as long its fair and square for the ammount, because i trust btc will keep increasing

[evilgreed]

Sure if its exact promised wage and they are paying the value of your work, then there is nothing to complain, aside from that i would love to work if that kind of salary will be implemented.

I think confirmation time and transaction fees are not a big problem when it comes to receiving the salary in Bitcoin. The biggest problem is volatility. Anyway, I'd take part of it in Bitcoin. Sometimes volatility may have a negative effect, but sometimes this variable brings a substantial gain.

And how then to act if everyday life requires the use of Fiat? Still have to sell bitcoin or change for money to buy food, clothes and pay for communal services.

Yes, getting all the salary in bitcoins is inconvenient. It is best to get the main part in Fiat (80-90%), and the rest (20-10%) to receive in bitcoins. I would agree to such conditions

[quickdeal]

  of course i will accept bitcoin as my salary, i wish one day everyone using bitcoin to buy everything, cars,house

[TribalBob]

I will never accept my salary in bitcoins as I cannot use bitcoins directly at a moment in my area so if I have to buy something then I have convert it to fiat first and if the price of bitcoins falls in future then it will badly affect my income and would be getting lower income.

[LimLims]

It will take a long time for that to happen that everyone will start using bitcoins and it will be accepted everywhere for buying anything and as of now its a risk to accept salary in bitcoins as the price of bitcoin is not stable so your income will depend on price of bitcoins.

[Format.C^]

I will accept 30% of my salary in bitcoins if possible as every month I buy few amount of bitcoins so if I am getting that part of my salary in bitcoins then it will save my time and money in buying bitcoins as I can directly get that amount in my wallet without spending for transaction fees.

[Mersedes]

I'm ready to get bitcoin in salary. Even if it's 100 percent. It will not be difficult for me to convert bitcoin into national currency, for mandatory payments and purchases
