Hey Tomorrow ask your boss if you can be paid in bitcoin.

[TimeBits]

Then ask your grocery store to accept it.

I`m serious, if you want to become non $laves.

[Pffrt]

And get jailed 
In my local, any kind of activity related to BTC is illegal. Before 2014, there was no law about Bitcoin, but in 2014, Bangladesh Bank applied a rule and asked people not to do any activity related to bitcoin. For doing so, one may get jailed and/or a fine.

[BrewMaster]

why would i want to do that?
as much as i like bitcoin and use it in as many occasions as i can, but i still can not use bitcoin in my day to day expenses such as paying the bills and buying groceries. getting paid in bitcoin (fully) means i would have to convert it to fiat (pay extra exchange fee) just to be able to spend it!

there is an additional factor that you should never invest more than you can afford to lose. going full bitcoin means i would be risking more than i am willing to.

i prefer keeping the balance of investing my excess fiat that i don't need in bitcoin.

then you are already doing something illegal by just being here not to mention getting paid in bitcoin already, if you are really living in Bangladesh.

how do you know i haven't already ask them multiple times?!
the fact is they don't accept bitcoin as payment and they don't have any plans for the foreseeable future.

the second point is still valid by the way, considering the high volatility of bitcoin.

Yes, I do but I'm interested in bitcoin, not doing any illegal activity with that like money laundering (for which bitcoin is banned here), not paying for any illegal service. I have the right to adopt the technology.

I feel bad for you that you don't know Bangladesh 
Bangladesh is an independent country, got freedom from Pakistan in 1971.
I think most people like sea beach, don't they?
CoxBazar sea beach is the longest in the world with 120 km length. I offer tourist guide, will accept BTC for you 

[dongrey918]

Still waiting for the day they start accepting bitcoin at my place. Why the hell authorities are mad for crypto? simply because it cuts down the tax and stuff?

[Kakmakr]

I asked them to subtract 5% of my Net salary and to pay that into a Bitcoin address that I provided to them and they agreed. <My boss is a Bitcoin fanatic> I would have converted 5% of my salary into Bitcoin myself and now they are doing it on my behalf. < I do not have to deposit Fiat and pay Bank fees on those transactions or the conversion fees at the exchange >  

It might be a bit more difficult with other companies, if they do not have a Bitcoin friendly CEO.    It will also help if you can influence the HR and Finance guys, because they execute the tasks to get the bitcoins into your Bitcoin address.  

[timerland]

As much as there is good intent behind this post, I don't think there is really a point - BTC isn't at a point right now where it is ready for mass adoption, as hard as that might be for us to admit. The lightning network was a really good addition and made making microtransactions a lot more viable and affordable, but we still aren't ready so far.

As much as I love BTC and hold some to this day, but I prefer holding it as excess money, instead of keeping everything into an unstable source of money, I prefer fiat!

Probably due to lack of demand, high TX fees and regulations.

[drwhobox]

I am feeling loved 

To answer OP, problem with me is that I do not have a boss. I am a self employed but whenever I get spare cash I buy Bitcoin.

Then ask your grocery store to accept it.

For daily life shopping, I think Bitcoin will be too expensive unless we see something like Lightning Network become very popular.

[Ryker1]

Well, I try to troll my boss like this. Here is in my place Bitcoin is well known and my boss also aware of that cryptocurrency. Crypto enthusiast people will understand if you are just kidding only not being by serious. I do not think what will be the reaction but for sure he will never get pissed off. Indeed, this is a nice try to promote Bitcoin even our boss. Who knows our boss will become big investors of bitcoin at least we help the supply of bitcoin get lesser and make the crypto market healthier.

I don't have a boss. But to many of my countrymen who are employed in a government or private office, most probably their boss does not have an inkling as to what Bitcoin really is. If at all, it is some kind of a scam or something used for illegal schemes.

The grocery stores do not know Bitcoin either.

The best way to do this is for Bitcoin supporters themselves to do the first step. Create stores and accept Bitcoin, hire staff with Bitcoin salary, accept tips and give rewards to loyal customers in Bitcoin. Bitcoin supporters will have to rally behind such business initiatives and flock there. Otherwise, the store beside you won't follow suit.

[AntiSpam]

I believe we are still far aways from being paid in bitcoin. First, there must be real demand and usage through stores accepting bitcoin as a mean of payment before we can try to receive our salary in bitcoin.
And there is additional paper work to be done for the company if they switch from fiat to btc.

Further i believe that this is quite bad while bitcoin has this high volatility.
Having 5% less the day after the payday, just because of volatility is quite bad. Once prices will be measured in btc instead of fiat, that will work good though.

[BlackFor3st]

The idea is great but not all the governments are in favor of bitcoin or crypto currencies so other people might find it difficult especially if they are in strict country that prohibit the use of crypto currencies.

But for those country that freely accepts crypto currencies especially bitcoin then this might be the greatest idea that will bring the digital payment into another level.

[Ayiranorea]

Asking for a pay in bitcoin might make the boss know about bitcoin. We've reached a good level in the market, and further we need to have patience till the day comes for us to buy everything with bitcoin. As more countries are in the event of regulating bitcoin right now something we do relative to cryptocurrency need to be kept confidential because corrupt governments always look for someone to expose news to the public.

[crwth]

My boss is already aware of Bitcoin, but they wouldn't use Bitcoin to give the salary because the company doesn't get paid in Bitcoin or any other cryptocurrency, to be precise. I think it would be a great way to be paid, but the value is going to be different every week.

For the grocery, there is a way to use Bitcoin, but first, it would need to go to a credit card then pay using a payment provider that accepts Bitcoin, which is not bad. There are other payment gateways that you could go thru, so it agrees and accepts Bitcoin. Maybe, in the long run, there would be more payment channels available.

We would soon be free from this slavery called "fiat"!  We just need to keep promoting bitcoin to our employers or employees, mechanic, institutions, schools, restaurants, churches or mosques and hotels. I will rather be in control of my funds and in bitcoin than keeping them in the bank and if I have the ways I will rather buying in bitcoin that fiat currency. since I read the story online how our governments do manipulate the fiats to favor the rich, I have been having miss feelings about faits and the fraudulent financial system.

Lol. You do realize that Bitcoin's price is directly a reflection of how much fiat dollars you get for it right? If you are being paid out in Bitcoin, your salary is basically $1500 worth of Bitcoin, set at Bitcoin's fiat value at that specific day. You will no longer be a 'slave' when everything is priced in satoshis and not fiat dollars.

Your bank gives you a piece of mind in the way that you have a certain percentage of your wealth in a centralized ecosystem that's pretty much impossible to lose due to hacks and whatnot. I never had a coffee/grocery payment censored at all. It works perfectly for day to day payments and bill settlement. Not everything requires decentralization.

I read the story online how our governments do manipulate the fiats to favor the rich, I have been having miss feelings about faits and the fraudulent financial system.

Is it manipulation that makes the rich richer, or are they just smarter with their capital allocations? I go for the latter.

[cipherhut]

That might be the cleverest way to pay and bring Bitcoin in the mainstream market. From salary to grocery market if the flow becomes smoother then the future is near when Bitcoin become a primary currency for all.
