i can not imagine if bitcoin is become my salary for now, because for now, i still use fiat rather than bitcoin. i use bitcoin just to hold for a while and buy altcoin in trading, but in future if there is many store offline and online available in around my city, i will accept bitcoin as my salary and its not problem for me.

We can afford to receive salary in future if we have enough places to spend them directly without converting them to fiat, but at a moment it would be a wrong decision to get paid in bitcoins.

Second that!

It would be nice if the world used one currency. No more getting the phone out to work out how much something costs in a foreign currency.

What a terrible idea, a single currency will mean a single government, if you think that some governments are already too powerful, then this hypothetical single government will be awfully powerful, in this environment bitcoin will not be possible.

What a communistic idea. Man you have no understanding of how the market works. What if the only currency we have deflates or inflates or we have issues with it ? Buying power is differnt per country that is why they have different currencies to begin with.

This is a dream, and I honestly think such a think will not happen. But online it may be possible. 1 main Internet currency. Since most companies already accept eletronic payments we could easily pay our bills online.. .with Bitcoin. Thus making bitcoin a good option to get your salary.

Bitcoin as a salary is possible for some but not for me. To have my salary paid in bitcoin I find it important I can use it and at this moment there lack of options to use it makes it not very handy for me to get paid in bitcoin because I am not able to spent those coins.

If the world used one currency, there would be no more fees that the government could use and there would be no currency exchange market. The next issue with this is that certain countries like to pint money when they can just because they see a need for it, which deflates the value. If the whole world would use the one currency, there would be no way to control one country printing more money because they need it!

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?

It would not be a great thing for me to get my salary in to Bitcoin because it would be to much. When I receive my money it most of the time need it right away.
So maybe that in the future it would be handy but not right now.

I think it's not the best decision at the time. The main reason is that btc is a highly volatile currency, so I could not take the risk of having it as my salary, because the price may change every time that I get it, and manage it will be really difficult.

I will accept bitcoin partially as my salary cause it makes it easier for me. Right now I already convert part of my salary to bitcoin so why not have that automated right.
Better to do part then full because days like these it's dropping quite hard and we have to be careful where we put our money.

It is makes more easier for you because you are using bitcoin how those people who not using bitcoin ? then they forcing them selves to create a bitcoin wallet where they gonna accept their salary of bitcoin soon? better if not and accept real paper money.

People will prefer to accept salary in bitcoins only if they are aware about the concept of bitcoins and if not then they will never risk their income by getting paid into bitcoins.

That is right. For the time being, the bitcoin is also too volatile. The price is changing too much. Not good for salary.

Agreed, and receiving salary in bitcoins is a big risk to take and the only reason behind it is the price volatility as no one can afford to put their monthly income at risk.

As long as you receive the salary with the latest rate, I think it is not a big problem. Lets say, your salary is $1000 per month, and bitcoin rate is $606 at the time of salary's payment then you will get around 1.65btc. To be noted that your deal with the company is that your salary is fixed in $ but the payment is in BTC. It will not give you huge risk as you can convert it directly to $.

Why anyone will prefer to pay the fees by converting them every time to fiat, you can afford to accept salary in bitocoins only if you are able to spend them directly to buy everything.

Pay employees with btc, at the moment, I might not agree. If the company pays the btc, sometimes it could be beneficial, but if the price falls it could be detrimental to the employees.

I am with the same option that i would be a really bad idea to accept the salary as bitcoins right now because there are not any place offline where bitcoin can be spent specially in my country and with that the bitcoin price is also not stable.So i just cannot accept my salary as bitcoins.I love using them but cannot yet fully be dependent only on them.

Is the company offers it as an option or as THE salary? I wouldn't like to accept bitcoin as my salary because bitcoin's price is too unstable and I've to pay fixed bills in fiat. If I worked at the company already and I couldn't choose, I'd know some ways to invest them, but that's too risky for a salary, I think. Except if it's an option or a part-time job's salary. In this case, an interesting idea, though.

Yes and that part time income we are already earning from this forum so I think we should continue with our fiat salary and be satisfied with whatever extra we are earning from bitcoins.

No, i prefer receive my salary in fiat until bitcoin be more accepted in my country, because exchanging bitcoin into fiat everytime is not very fair, but maybe somewehre salary in bitcoin is real.

Yes fiat is widely used and accepted and we can buy anything with it and the scenario is totally opposite with bitcoins, so its not a smart move to for accepting bitcoins in terms of salary.

Isn't it quiet funny that you people are pushing for bitcoin to be accepted worldwide as a mode of transaction or payment processor yet you don't want BTCitcoin to be accepted as your salary. By accepting it as a salary more people and more company will trust BTC as a 2nd kind of currency you need to build trust when it will be accepted as salary it is inevitable that the price will go up. But we must not forget that our government will have the final jusdgement if BTC will be accepted in your country.
