Bitcoin: Would you want to get paid in cryptocurrency?
#1
A Japanese internet firm is the latest to offer its staff part of their salaries in the digital currency.

Quote:So how would you feel about getting paid in the high profile cryptocurrency?

From early next year, staff at Japanese internet firm GMO Group will be among the latest to find out how that feels.

More than 4,000 employees are being given the option to receive a portion of their salary in Bitcoin.

Critics say it is a marketing stunt, announced at a time when global interest in the financial technology has never been higher.


It also carries risks: the volatile currency slumped last week but has since rebounded by more than 50%.

But what will it really mean for employer and employee?

I would say no, unless they pay me in a brand new crypto currency that can only rise. Otherwise who knows if your paycheck could plummet to nothing. This is the real world so I would want something more real and solid.
