We all have our salaries of signature campaigns in satoshis already 

In the long run, this has been an efficient and profitable payment method. Nothing to complain about it

It's only a matter of time until many companies will start paying their employees with satoshis. I think that there are companies like the exchanges that will either allow the employee to choose the payment method, whether it's with satoshis or with fiat.

It is convertible to fiat and so those that have no problems receiving it will simply choose to get paid in satoshis.

One of the pros on this is we get an instant BTC holding and investment if we don't spend it.  

Maybe take the country where you're living as a factor as well.

I'm living on a developing country (PH), and the satoshis that I'm getting in signature campaign on a monthly basis is way higher than those who are earning on a minimum wage here. On what you said though, I don't have a child still, and also living in a remote are (which is good because we can just still plant vegetables to lessen the expenses). We're eating 3x a day as well though with some snacks in between. As for leisure, we can travel at least once a month, and a huge thanks for the satoshis that I'm getting on signature campaign. Not being sick is given and health is wealth at the end of the day.

As for the salary being in Satoshis, I wonder if how complex it will be in the future, and if the companies are willing to do it despite how complex your pay slip can be. I guess that would be less complicated if it's in stable coins, eh?

Let me go by 50% for now, since not every business and institutions are paying salaries already in Satoshi, so both could exist between fiat and Satoshi for payment before everything turned to be on one side, but before then, we still have a long way to go, as we are getting more closer to that time with the widespread of bitcoin as payment medium globally.

I doubt it because bitcoin is not a legal currency and not everyone knows about it. Using Bitcoin to pay salaries would be more feasible for cryptocurrency companies than for traditional companies.


But it would be disadvantageous if that money were used for daily living expenses. The worst thing would happen if you just got paid in bitcoin and the price suddenly drops 10% or 30%.

Meanwhile, receiving payments in fiat is more proactive and less stressful as there is no need to worry about the price of bitcoin. We can easily plan our spending and buy bitcoins at a better price if we know how to analyze the market.

I remember being paid in a flat BTC/week for a sig campaign. Right now, most campaigns seem to quote the fiat value each week, probably because they have to buy the sats to pay the members. I guess it's fine for me, although I doubt my country will allow something like that to happen locally. We're far away from using Bitcoin as a legal means of payment, so receiving a salary in Bitcoin or crypto is a pipe dream.

Having more options is better. I think people have discussed many times about the salary being split between crypto/fiat in the past. I don't think my opinion have changed since then.

Definitely yes, even if all stores didn't accept payment in bitcoin I would still prefer to get my salary in bitcoin.
We will always have the option to exchange bitcoin for fiat and so we can do that whenever needed.
Holding rest of bitcoins will eventually increase our net profit over time. We will also get a better average price since the salary credited would be regular.

You need to look for a second means of income that will pay you in fiat in order for you to be able to meet up to your needs and maybe, hodli your signature sats. Based on what you wrote in the OP, a lot of us here in this forum participating in signature campaign is already receiving salary in Satoshi, and it doesn't matter if it's little or not because we are lucky.

It's rare for anyone to pay salaries in Satoshi if they are not accepting bitcoin as a payment method. My signature weekly payment is enough to take care of my basic needs and weekly expenses and I am happy for that. Though, I have a second means of income in fiat.

Sometimes I see news that some companies that are loyal to bitcoin offer their workers to receive salaries in bitcoin, but we have no statistics on how popular this is among workers. Salary is almost always money that people will spend, and they are only willing to save a small part of it, so they will have to spend most of this salary, and since they are unlikely to be able to spend their satoshi, they will have to exchange bitcoin for their currency so that they can spend it. Maybe once or twice it will be fun for them to receive a salary in bitcoin, but if they only save part of this salary as savings, then it will probably be easier for them to buy bitcoin when with their savings.

I think that I've seen one video before, maybe somewhere in Switzerland or near that region, and that there's a company that offers Bitcoin payments or any other preferred cryptocurrencies to their new employees, other than fiat.

But that's true, the exchanges or crypto projects that have built a team and company are likely to do this preference.

That is one of the cons of receiving payments in Bitcoin. The volatility really hits a lot but if you've been used to it just like being part of a campaign, it won't hurt you that much.

But for the new ones, this is something to be considered of.

That's one of the pros and I agree with you, just as me. I'm able to spend less if I receive payments in Bitcoin and my mind is set for wanting to have more of it than spending it.
