Sounds great idea, but I don't think now is the right time for this. Maybe later, when bitcoin gets wider adoption.

yeah it would be really cool to be honest, i think that i would definitely accept the bitcoins in the future when the price will be more stable

But I will like to accept it even in this age as now the price is on its rise and when I will get my salary with the passage of time on it I will have a more value of my salary then in what i received, so I will love to get it in bitcoin from now.

You are right the price will be increase and we will have a bigger amount than what we will have the salary, but still there are some people who will need some amount in fiat urgently so that they will be able to spend for their bills and other expenditures, I already have some small income from fiat that is why I will like in bitcoin but for others I will like some amount in fiat.

Yeah maybe we can say that it sounds great but we have to make sure that our employers are following through bitcoins' price so we don't have to worry if our salary is not on the right rates . Because the main problem on having a salary that is in bitcoin is its unstable price we should not expect that it will going to be stable the price is still depends on its demands and stocks .

it's too much work for employers to start paying out people in bitcoin. especially when from the entire number of employees only 1 or 2 will actually make use of these bitcoin payouts. it's simply not worth it. and imagine what will happen when the price goes down a lot in a matter of days. people will send angry complaints to their employer because the price dropped a lot. also, what do you mean with "depends on its demand and stocks"? especially the stocks part.

No I wouldn't. Imagine getting a big fat paycheck and waking up the next day to bitcoin going down by 30%. This means you just lost 30% of your paycheck, I think ill stick with the current valuta since that is more stable

i also  like to accept bitcoin as my salary, i will welcome it.

A good step ", but you also have to take into account the possibility that would happen if you accept bitcoin as your salary. one of them is a matter of price increase and decrease bitcoin. If indeed the salary you're getting used to daily life then recommend you don't accept bitcoin. For if you accept bitcoin later on, then your earnings is uncertain and it can affect your life. unless you are smart in responding

I am not ready, also it's not accepted in my country so bitcoins is kinda useless as salary for me, but maybe it's good for saving and investments.
well once, it would be meaningless if your country does not accept bitcoin. it will be difficult for regulation at the company where you work. bitcoin will be to have a good effect when the state supports the development of bitcoin.

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?
Maybe if I have a stable job that pays me bitcoin every week or month? as for now, I could not accept bitcoin as my salary because I cannot earn more bitcoin than my real job earning, I hope that I have a stable job that pays me bitcoin every week or month.

I live in Brazil and I accept part of my salary in BTC.
I do some jobs and receive in BTC.

But BTC here is a investment not a cash.
Yes, I too wouldn’t want to get my entire check as bitcoin. However, I would like an option to have a certain amount of my paycheck converted to bitcoin. I think it would be a great way to passively save my money without hassling over transferring the money into bitcoins.

I definitely would! Earning bitcoin as salary would be a great step ahead because, with the continuous fluctuations of bitcoin, both sides will get more money overall.
i would also really like earning bitcoins as a salary though i doubt that it is possible at the moment because no one pays in bitcoins

The use of bitcoin may change things a lot in near future, but there is still a high risk on accepting Bitcoin as your salary, given the fact that the price is unstable, may inflate or fluctuate, affecting your total salary.

my salary usually go through the banks, an usually the bank did not charge anything, but if i received bitcoins, when i convert it to fiat i will have to pay the fees for witdrawals..
unless i could find someone who do offline transactions

I would like to receive payments on bitcoin, it would be easier to receive every month. But I'd rather wait for the price to stabilize.

Aside from those fluctuations, we should think about the inconvenient of converting back to back so you could use the value of your money...We should think about accepting bitcoin as a salary if we could go to the market and buy a fresh fish with it or all the things that you eat or use daily... Smiley



Now every company is trying its best to adopt bitcoin for their payment, so I hope that at the time when we will get our salary in bitcoin, the fish shops will also have an option of bitcoin payment for their clients.
well most of techy company are now starting to accept bitcoin indeed but not for a large marketplace just like amazon or ebay,they're not planning yet to accept bitcoin,in other side there's appear a service that allow you to pay to those two sites by using bitcoin,bitcoin can get its own way to be adopted widely

Well, of you have no desperate need of money it would work for you but those people who are earning and does not have the opportunity to invest because their earnings are only enough for the basic needs of his family will be affected if there is a big price fall back happening after receiving his salary.

Yeah I agree with you those people who are not having problem with money they are going to accept bitcoin as their salary. But I think as of now, there are already a lot of companies that are letting their employees to choose if they are going to get paid with bitcoin or cash. But if I am going to choose, I am going to refuse.
i personally like to receive my salary in bitcoin as i already invest my whole salary in bitcoin, but i have a problem that i receive my salary through bank and banks are not accepting bitcoin, if our department decide to change the salary payment method and then pay our salary in bitcoin i will be really good.

Yes, I think so too, although I really like the idea of having salary in bitcoin, the fact that bitcoin’s price still fluctuates a lot and its instability keep me wondering. And beside that, bitcoin is still not widely known by many people and there are too little shops that use bitcoin directly not to mention supermarkets. So it’s hard to have bitcoin as salary when you can’t buy a coke in the market with it.
