I forget what it is called, but a few years back, I heard of a company on the "Let's Talk Bitcoin" podcast that was talking about being like an ADP or payroll processor that helped companies do payroll in bitcoin.
I don't know if it's still around or if it ever got off the ground in a big fashion, but I do know that the overall plan was to bring bitcoin to the masses by helping corporations pay employees in bitcoin instead of dollars. Anyone who started doing that back then has more than tripled their savings if they actually did it.
It will be interesting to know what happened with the project you describe, lets see of other member remember the name of the project, but at the same time while what you say it is true, most people are not very fond of taking risk when it comes to their salary, I don't have a problem taking risk with my bitcoin because I know I have my job to pay the bills, I don’t think I will be able to take the same risks with my salary.
I agree, it really is up to you whether you choose your job or the Bitcoin. If your job pays more than what you earn in Bitcoin, then there's no problem.
I think the only point on what he is saying is that, BTC has lots of potential, and what I mean about potential is that, the possible to earn more in Bitcoin.
Though there are lots of ways to earn BTC, it will still be a gamble; by investing your time and money. If you wanted to invest in BTC, you have to spent so much time for just to earn that certain amount and that is very crucial. And also you have to learn more and more about Bitcoin so that eventually it will be easy for you to comply on how to earn more in BTC than your regular jobs.
Except you can't make consistent earnings with bitcoin unless you are running some kind of bitcoin based business... The only situation where you should stop working from bitcoin income is if you already have enough to retire on.
Also we must not forget that traditional jobs offer things that bitcoin does not, like a retirement fund or medical insurance, that can be very expensive depending on where you live so it is a good idea that even if you can earn earn a lot of money in bitcoin, to keep your traditional job to get all of those benefits that bitcoin cannot give to you yet.
Well how about that, if the project really does exist and is successful then, it will be easier for the corporations to adjust to Bitcoin usage.
Because imagine, instead of quitting their jobs, lets say a worker in the factory (which tend to do a lot of work), how about paying them in terms of Bitcoin and not fiat.
There's so much possibilities, not only that, maybe it will also decrease or even eliminate corruption. Don't you think?
I just hope that its a successful project.
. Bitcoin as an extra income is great. As the main source of income is risky. Has anyone in the forum tried to resign from work permanently to earn BTC?
