I have also heard about Strike and Bitwage services, but as far as I understand, they only help reduce dependence on fiat but cannot help us completely get rid of fiat and live by bitcoin standards. Because after all, you are paying bills that are displayed in fiat currency, and those services just help you quickly convert from bitcoin to fiat currency or vice versa.

Fiat is still the measure of value, the main unit of measurement in life and we are just trying to fool ourselves by using conversion services.

Bitcoin is not yet legally accepted in most countries, so it is not the right time to use Bitcoin as a salary. another problem is that the rapid fluctuations in the price of Bitcoin can cause problems when paying salaries.
 
There are some large companies that can implement this process if they want, but for ordinary companies, paying salaries in Bitcoin will be complicated. Companies will be more important if they can send salaries to their employees' accounts with very little cost. From my point of view, it will be possible only when the whole world accepts Bitcoin legally, otherwise it is very complicated.

I can say without a doubt that the way El Salvador is using Bitcoin, all countries will start using Bitcoin, and we may not have to wait long for this.

Personally, I don't see the point in paying wages in satoshi, because in this case, most of the funds will have to be converted into national currency to pay for utilities and have fiat money for life, because not everyone has the opportunity to make payments only in Bitcoin. Therefore, I think it is better to receive wages in national currency and convert part of the earned funds to buy Bitcoin. In fact, you will need to perform the same conversion process, but in this case, no one will know how many Bitcoins you buy and at what addresses they are stored.

Small companies and merchants for example, can easily accept Bitcoin but in a long term, they will have to struggle with their small business treasury management. If you need any example that shows accuracy for my saying, look at El Salvador and their Bitcoin Legal Tender policy that was initiated years ago, in the last market cycle.

Keep it simple, small companies are most vulnerable to Bitcoin price volatility and they mostly don't have proper business treasury management in order to go through most volatile months well without impacts on their business money flow and treasury.

We have the same opinion. I don't like the idea of receiving our salary in bitcoin as we would still need to convert it to fiat to he able to use it on our everyday expenses. Add to that is its fast volatility, the value of our salary will fluctuate quickly and could decrease if the price of bitcoin goes down.

I also don't think companies or employers will use bitcoin as a salary for their employees as the amount in satoshi would always change and could be confusing for their finance department unlike using fiat where the value is fixed and stable.

I like the "Opportunity Cost" name very catchy...and I think the idea is well thought of just not sure who feeds them the exchange rates to avoid assets or whatever it is from being over or under valued.

And saw the browser extension in action from the Amazon photo, and I think along the way I think users could mistakenly over pay as it quotes in Sats/BTC sometimes of which a user thinking it's BTC could pay 1 sat value in BTC which is not small change, anyway  hope such costly mistakes don't happen.

For the moment, half of the voters could accept being paid in BTC. It's true that this could be a real headache for both employees and employers because of the volatility: BTC is both a currency and a highly volatile investment; I don't think anything equivalent exists.

Do you think BTC will ever stop being so volatile? Will it ever stop its wild ride?

Could be an head ache especially if what they usually do is to sell immediately their receive coins.

But if they have plans to invest on for long term I guess they would just ignore those volatile movement of Bitcoin.

Although I know some are not capable to handle the volatile nature of Bitcoin since they have personal obligation need to attain I guess with this the employers should give them an option to receive fiat or even stable coins.

Nope I don't think its volatile nature would stop but rather will continue since its normal for Bitcoin to move that way.

That's probably better. Even if someone say that they love Bitcoin, they don't really need to get paid in Bitcoin for a full-time job they are doing because as you said, the price is extremely volatile sometimes, and even though it can go up as well and that can be beneficial for them, but what if it goes down? We often see the market dumping all of a sudden, and sometimes those dumps are pretty deep, so that can obviously make the person lose a good amount of money from their salary, and they probably can't wait for the market to recover since they would need funds.

So even if someone loves Bitcoin, they should get their salary in fiat or a stable currency, and then use a portion of their funds to buy Bitcoin with it. This way, they wouldn't be worried about the volatility of the market and they won't lose any money other than the small amount that they will need to pay for the fees when buying Bitcoin, but that's nothing compared to the loss one could incur in a market dump.
