Imagine if all prices were displayed in satoshis like Marty Bent imagined with his extension
Opportunity cost .
In that case it maybe nice to receive your salary in satoshis, or not.
What do you think about it ?
This would be quite good. From an investment point of view. Receiving part of your salary in satoshi right away, wouldn't have to worry about converting (and losing) traditional money into satoshi. that is, the employee receives it directly into his wallet without having to take any extra steps.
In your vote, I indicated 50%. In fact, what part of salary to receive in satoshi will depend on the level of this salary and current expenses. I assume that a more plausible figure could be in the range of 30-50%.
(In France, salaries are mandatory in euros, and pay slips are very complex. Tax and administrative rules are complicated, and few companies pay bonuses in satoshis, probably due to this complexity)
The issue of taxation of salaries in satoshi remains open. Depending on the specific country. Somewhere, such a method will be completely prohibited.
Although, from a technical point of view, this should not create difficulties for the employer.
Just need to do something like this:
- accrue 100% of the employee's salary in traditional currency.
- pay all taxes from this 100%.
- 50-70% of the remaining amount of money after paying taxes, transfer to the employee in traditional money.
- 30-50% of the remaining amount of money, convert to satoshi and send to the employee.
Win-Win. All taxes are paid and the employee received part of the salary in satoshi.
