Then ask your grocery store to accept it.

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

I actually do it from time to time. I have an official job, and there I receive my salary in local fiat and only local fiat according to the legislation. But I also do quite a lot of freelance. And when it comes to payment options, I regularly mention that I don't mind getting paid in Bitcoin. Employers usually ignore this phrase, but at least this way they hear it more often and slowly get used to the idea of Bitcoin as money.
As for grocery stores, we have chains of supermarkets, so the decisions are centralized... And honestly, considering the current priority fees, I would not want to pay for my groceries in BTC.

Except that you are a bit of a Bitcoin favorite or your company works with Bitcoin.
But in my opinion, I prefer to be paid in dollars. Because according to me, work brings a stable source of income for my life. The fact that I invest in Bitcoin is a part-time job.

And get jailed Grin

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.

Well, developers of Bitcoin anticipated this bans..that is why peer-to-peer trading with bitcoin is emphasized more on Bitcoin whitepaper.
I believe what will help when Bitcoin is banned is a very large autonomous cryptocurrency communities . We could trade peer-to-peer with one another on censorship resistant virtual stores/marketplaces scattered around all countries.

If you randomly asked a grocery store owner/worker to accept bitcoin, not everyone knows it and how bitcoin works. So if you just randomly said it to someone, they would just probably ignore it. Unless if most customers would tell them or request that. Since the demand is high.
Still need to promote bitcoin to a lot of people, for them to consider it. (unless the owner knows bitcoin)

yah, I agree, that is the entire point of this post brother friend! spread the word, asked to get paid in bitcoin, ask anywhere you shop if they accept bitcoin or if they can, explain it to them, anywhere, hairdresser, car show, etc etc.

be like, yo I would buy this, if you accepted bitcoin or hey can I pay for this with bitcoin please, oh no you don`t accept the future yet, well ask your boss if he knows about the future? Tell your manager my dood. I do it every store I walk in.

Are you sure about that? Indeed, the central bank of Bangladesh warned in 2014 against dealing in Bitcoin , threatening that anyone caught using BTC could be jailed under the country's anti-money laundering laws. But apart from stories in some questionable sources titled like "Police on the hunt for bitcoin users in Bangladesh", I haven't managed to find any information regarding was anybody actually jailed or fined for using Bitcoin in Bangladesh.

To OP, I agree with you. I asked, and they said no.

^ btw, this is how you destroy fiat, and make btc king, so take notes satoshi. You can do it, I can`t man, you are the smart guy. I believe in you my dood, you are my only hope.

Now what if the bitcoin you hold at the end of mining becomes like POS, where it is a bonus multiplier to your bitcoin time. (increases the rate in which you receive bitcoinfiattimesilver)
BTC = GOLD
BTCsilver or BTCtime = FIAT

Please watch if you have not, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y7TLFyK_3Pk this is how you fix the end game of bitcoin and end fiat peacefully.

Fiat would not be $lavery if we were all making it at the same rate ( That is not to say you could not earn more faster by self working or doing public jobs). It would also be backed by time or duration, rather than nothing.

I hope some of you can understand this, it is really important and I am the worst person to explain it.

yah fuck fiat, that $hit is $lavery $cam $cummy $ystem

My turn to ask you something, OP. I know you are serious about Bitcoin and more about fiat as a system of slavery. Which would you prefer, to get paid in Bitcoin or to get paid in fiat but double the amount?

For argument's sake, please do not answer me with I prefer fiat but I will use it to buy BTC.

No, for real man, I won`t accept the fiat I will actually think about hurting you if you try and take my time in exchange for it, I will accept the bitcoin for now, but know I rather accept something else that is fairly distributed to all of humanity. (a limited but unlimited supply bitcointime) it is not created yet, but it would be KYC addresses that run a side chain on the bitcoin network, that duration is dispensed into them. It would be like the bitcoin fiat, except it can`t be printed out unlimited, it can only be distributed via duration and if you are alive to a single address that only 1 person can have 1 of.
I like to think of it as bitcoin silver and btc being bitcoin gold.

The reason I would accept the bitcoin over the fiat, is I know one is a limited, at some point in time you will have to work to get your bitcoin back, but you can always enslave me with the fiat forever.

But the reason I would accept bitcointime or bitcoinsilver or whatever you wanna call it, is because I know all participants are creating the supply at a fair rate, not just private families creating unknown amounts.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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