yes. I agreed with you and I appreciate your opinion. the percentages of tax has been one of the reasons the most peoples on overseas would choosing bitcoin as main payments. I see that.
but for me who working at my own country, would prefer to using fiat instead of choosing bitcoin as payment because if a price down suddenly, what does I do? what I will waiting bitcoin up to price up? how long I did should wait.
Topic: Will you accept bitcoin as your salary? - page 106. (Read 183553 times)
I receive my salary in bitcoin. I have a foreign employer and I convert it basically right away. It makes for instant paychecks and no foreign fees.
Right now, I'd say no. Why? Well as you can see the price is going up and down and not just by small amounts. Let's say you're payed 100$ in bitcoin and then something happens that reduces the price of the bitcoin and you end up with a lot more that 100$, but the main thing, for ME, would be the price jumping and falling.
You can actually convert the bitcoin when you receive it. So if you get 100$, then you'll get 100$ fixed. I think you don't like playing with the charts, people see this as a chance to fill in their stash. With the growing community of bitcoiners and investors, there's no other way for bitcoin but to go up eventually. There might be a harsh dip like this one but just wait for a while and the price will be high up there again. 
If you're holding a bitcoin debit card, then accepting your salary in bitcoin would be more beneficial than getting it in fiats as of now. Because, in my case I am converting my salary into bitcoin for my saving and for gambling spending. If I do directly get bitcoins that would save more time for me which is usually occurring with conversion.
But how you can fill up your daily needs, are you sure, you can exchange your bitcoin into the fiat for everytime you needs?and does it's just waste a lot of your time, it's fine for your to accept your salary into btc but you need to consider about next problem you can get from that.
Thing is, there isn't an economy built around Bitcoin yet; so i can't spend BTC to pay for my daily needs; at least not here in France.
In fact I maybe be a bit harsh but other than online development bitcoins physical development has been very slow.
Yes. Anyone hiring? I'm a closer, get me a coffee.
With this fluctuated condition also the down trend ofcourse not
I got my 1 bitcoin as my salary when price 650 and sudddenly price go 520 WTF, i dont want it

That's the downside if we would receive bitcoin as salary... Price moves drastic..Unless, if what you eat, what you pay are all priced in bitcoin..That way, you are not affected even if price moves like a saw in one hour... But since the commodities and everything that we buy was priced in local currency, then we still have a problem if our salary is in bitcoin...
Take a look at the bitcoins price as of now, it drastically goes down which is not good especially if you prefer to recieve your salary in bitcoin it would do also affect you salary since your salary depends on bitcoin price. Ex. our signature campaign earnings as serve as daily salary then the bitcoins price as of now is low then the rate of your bitcoin earnings would also be low, just the same in real life.

In Europe there is a hot new pertaining to a company whose going to introduce paying bitcoins to their employees. But given the instability of the bitcoins market value is it an advantage for the employees or an disadvantage. In my opinion this kind of payment for salary is not yet beneficial to employees not until bitcoins price has become stabled. Though if bitcoin will start to increase its monetary value it can be advantageuos but if not then it is a peril to the employees. So what do you think, what is your opinion on this matter?
No I won't because the price fluctuates a lot. While it may be good for a trader, I don't think I would want it as my salary. It's is bit like getting shares for your salary.
Not only you save your time, you also save from fees on every conversion you have to make. Plus sometimes on exchange, the price is of bitcoin is higher than it really is. So, you can add that to your savings. Directly receiving bitcoin as salary has advantages especially if you are spending bitcoins directly.
Maybe for some people who live in developed countries that already have a physical store that accepts bitcoin can directly spend their bitcoin. But how to developing countries new to bitcoin? because it would be difficult to find a physical store that accepts bitcoin there. And with it if we want to spend a bitcoin then we have to replace it in advance by fiat if a salary in the form of bitcoin. So the conclusion is easy or not is relative depending on each individual.
There are advantages and disadvantages on recieving bitcoin as a salary it depends on what country do you live and it also depends on what would be the price of bitcoin. As you said there are countries are still developing to accept bitcoin payments they need to exchange it first to fiat before buying on a store. It really depends on persons choice.

you have a good point their chief. If you are one of those who uses bitcoin as savings it would be a great thing for you to consider bitcoin price might go done but we know that the chance for bitcoin price raises also.
100% YES ofcourse because if they pay me bitcoin it 100% awesome hopefuly that my company pay me with bitcoin because bitcoin is not stable how if bitcoin increase price 
a liitle bit then you have a like bonus for your monthly salary and if bitcoin dicrease price it's your bad day but hold it until bitcoin increase the price again that's awesome for sure
You do not need a fiat for daily used? because when the price goes down you said you will keep it and wait for the price increase? And i do not think company will pay you with more than your salary right now they used converting fiat into bitcoin and that is only equal to you monthly salary. a liitle bit then you have a like bonus for your monthly salary and if bitcoin dicrease price it's your bad day but hold it until bitcoin increase the price again that's awesome for sure 100% YES ofcourse because if they pay me bitcoin it 100% awesome hopefuly that my company pay me with bitcoin because bitcoin is not stable how if bitcoin increase price a liitle bit then you have a like bonus for your monthly salary and if bitcoin dicrease price it's your bad day but hold it until bitcoin increase the price again that's awesome for sure

I don't see any problem with accepting bitcoin as my salary because i can always convert it to money when i need one. It would be an issue if bitcoin will no longer be converted to money.
But what about during the day you will convert the bitcoin. occurs constraints, such as the example of your internet access is down, or the service you use is under maintanance at the same time with the bitcoin prices fell sharply. You do not have a problem with that?
Very good thinking. Why not just do it yourself right? I prefer it that way. With an automatic bitcoin exchange in your salary you cannot control it. What if you dont want to buy yet and waiting for the lower price.
