Finally got paid for some work in bitcoin

[BIT-BENDER]

It's feels great working and earning in crypto-currency really it's brings the world closer, I can be in Africa and working for a client millions of miles away in another country and payment method won't be a problem with crypto-currency, the world is advancing and crypto-currency is facilitating it. Anytime I put in work, and get paid in crypto-currency I hunger to work even more, it's a true blessed feeling

Some would say better ever than never, but you have been a member of this forum since 2014 - which means it took you 8 years to receive your first BTC payment for your work - which somehow places the adaptation of the BTC at the speed of a snail's or turtle's step. I hope that you will not have to wait another 8 years for the next payment in BTC

Lol.. shall i will say it's when op encounter it own experience of receiving payment with Bitcoin, since op has started to summon courage via receiving payment with bitcoin, i believe from my perspective it has activated for the life system, no matter the delay or time frame it has taken op, we should encourage and wish op to continue with cryptocurrency payment transactions, because it definitely bring more testimonies about cryptocurrencies especially bitcoin in outside world..lol.

Everyone remembers their first payment which they received in bitcoins. I remember that i was paid in bitcoin to write an article a few years back.

I also still remember when I got my first payment in Bitcoin. I got my first Bitcoin because I created a video to promote a crypto project. In the past, I have a youtube channel that has good numbers of subscribers. So, I was trying to take advantage of my youtube channel by creating videos of crypto projects. Finally, I got my first from that videos although the number of my Bitcoin was quite small.

I write apps for a living.  Someone wanted a crypto one done and they paid me in bitcoin. Living the dream.

I know how you feel it has been so long and I could still remember how happy I was back then,
I feel like I finally gain some freedom and become independent when I first earn cryptocurrency.
I was earning small amount back then but I was already dreaming big with crypto.

My best wishes to you. Congratulations In fact, this kind of news sometimes affects our minds a lot. I think it would be great if we could discover that.However, such a discovery delights not only me but thousands of other viewers. I pray all the time you go far.

Congrats OP. This one here shows to prove that talent and skills are more reliable these days to earn up a living, and not just some sort of luck. Now i am gaining new ideas too as to where i could possibly gained more bitcoin aside from purely investing. Also, this goes to show that bitcoin could lead us into more stable jobs like we used to deal with fiat. But definitely, the offer here is more worthy than working for fiat.

Yes. I think it's a big advantage for employeers from rich countries and employees from poor countries, because the first group will be having access to qualified labor for a cheaper price, if compared the to local rates of employees of their own country, which demands better payrates due to the living cost being more expensive there. Meanwhile, employees from poor countries don't bother receiving less, as even less is still a lot for the local living standards.

On the other hand, bringing employeers and employees closer, doesn't matter where they are located in the world, can have a negative impact for the masses of first world countries, because they will have difficult finding jobs which pay decently, as they will have to compete with people who are, like you said, millions of miles away in another country, for the same spots.

It is a great experience anyway...having a chance to get paid for Bitcoin at this time is somewhat a stepping stone to the reality that Bitcoin can be a form of currency in the future. Maybe 5 years from now major establishments will do this.
Well, I received payment from the signature campaign but it was a different feeling when you got paid from your job.
It is to know that more people are getting knowing about cryptocurrency, especially for Bitcoin, and likely to go for adoption.

Congrats on your win! This may seem a small achievement to some, but to be paid whether big or small amount by doing the things you love and you are passionate about is something worth celebrating. It's a victory no matter what. Indeed, bitcoin has so many opportunities to offer. The things offered related with crypto is endless and anyone can really make a profit and even a living by utilizing their knowledge and skills connected and in line with it. Hopefully, you'll be able to continue what you are doing. Don't settle for less and demand the right compensation for your work. I wish this kind of compensation would be adopted and be thought of other individuals and establishments as well. Giving the employee/worker an opportunity to pick and choose what form of salary they want to receive to is a great way to start.

Don't mention that it's not a lot because it's still money and a little appreciation goes a long way. I haven't been paid in bitcoin for some work yet but I am working on a marketable skill to be able to make sure that I can offer some sort of services but for now, I guess I'll have to stick with getting paid for writing posts in this forum.

I also get paid in Bitcoin, and I have been working for so long now and my payment has been in Bitcoin from the beginning. The first time that I got paid in BTC, I wasn’t really the one who asked for it, although then I don’t really have much interest in accepting Bitcoin for payments in the job that I do, but I had a BTC wallet. So, it happened that I got a job through indeed.com, and the company I was going to work for told me that they would like to make payments using any crypto of my choice, so I looked at the idea and I felt it was a good one. I decided that I would accept it and that was how I did my first job That got me paid through Bitcoin. Till now I am accepting it for the web developing job I do.

Almost 8  years of account being here in crypto , how long have you been doing that service ? because you just post this now here meaning is this the very first time that you experienced being paid in bitcoin?
mostly accepting altcoin as payment is that what you meant here?

It feels good to get the first paycheque in Bitcoin, that feeling when your first Satoshi lands in your wallet it gives some relief knowing you can work and get paid in Bitcoin and it doesn't require any paperwork or third-party agent to get your payment.

Lol paycheck? are you serious? there will never be a check because this is crypto and a online transaction lol.

Those who has got paid in Bitcoin for their work during last several weeks, how do you cope with price drops? I know that most of you most probably just hold, but still, today the reward your work is significantly lower than it was when you and your client made an agreement of work and payment. I am interested how to do cope with emotional discomfort. As this is not the same as you have made a trade and your profit is lower. Your work evaluates lower than is used to be.

No need to have hard feelings about drops of price , we just have to cope with it either by holding it for sometime umtill when their is increase in the market or to sell if the bitcoin is needed in urgent , it can be in the other way round too anytime if payment is made and the price goes up. Their is a quote which says "if you meet the dip today do not panic  it also possible to meet some gains tomorrow when the market rises in values".

That will be the risk upon having Bitcoin as it possibly loses its value for quite some time that is why we have to convert it to fiat money if we wanted to be safe or if we are not preferred for holding. This is one of the concerns that many workers and even merchants halt to accepting Bitcoin, of course, fiat is the safest one as no change in its value. This certainly be an option and our willingness to accept it, and OP is quite happy to have this experience without minding the changes.

Wow congrats! I am also doing that as a freelance writer and marketing manager. I prefer crypto as payment than fiat. Good choice!

If you write apps for a living you could have easily get paid in crypto long ago. All you need to do is announce your services to the public.
We have a services board where you can easily announce your services and people who want it can reach out to you.
That's how many are getting paid in crypto for their work. It's great that you have now begun to get paid in crypto.
You can show your samples and may get the next task assigned to you soon. All the best.

The risk of volatility or bitcoin losing some of its value doesn't necessarily bother bitcoin adopters for payments. Some people prefer to hold bitcoin rather than immediately convert them to fiat upon receipt of ^[investment] payment and while others may sell bitcoin for fear of losing their value.

I think it doesn't matter how they use bitcoin because as long as they can afford the risk of losing then they can hold it and if they don't want to lose value because of the capital used they can sell it as soon as possible.
