I was called by my boss to provide IT services at his office. The task was routine, but what I didn't know at that moment was that a conversation about bitcoin would change the course of our meeting.
Upon arriving at my boss's office, I was greeted with a warm smile. He was aware of my tech knowledge, and as an open-minded individual, he was interested in hearing my opinion on the subject. Our conversation began with the typical discussion about the IT system I was about to update, but quickly transitioned to the world of cryptocurrencies.
As I worked on his computer, my boss expressed his curiosity about bitcoin. He had heard of it, of course, but like many people, he still had many questions and concerns. I decided to share my experience with cryptocurrency and how it had become an important part of my financial portfolio.
I explained how bitcoin worked, its decentralization, the underlying blockchain technology, and its potential to resist inflation. I also discussed the growing adoption of bitcoin worldwide, including well-known companies that were beginning to accept it as a form of payment.
My boss was intrigued and asked a series of questions. I was more than willing to answer all of them, providing solid information and examples of how bitcoin was changing the way finances were perceived.
As the afternoon progressed, my boss began to see the potential of bitcoin not only as an investment but also as a way to streamline international business transactions. He mentioned concerns about volatility, and I advised him to consider a long-term investment approach.
At the end of the day, my boss thanked me for the assistance with the IT system update, but he was more excited about the conversation regarding bitcoin. He was determined to learn more about the subject and consider the possibility of integrating it into the company's operations.
In the months that followed, my boss delved into the world of cryptocurrencies, learning more about bitcoin and other digital currencies. He decided to invest a small portion of his personal portfolio in bitcoin and began exploring how blockchain technology could benefit his company.
The adoption of bitcoin brought significant changes to my boss's business, making international transactions more efficient and cost-effective. He also diversified his personal investments and reaped the rewards of the cryptocurrency market's growth.
My visit to my boss's office wasn't just about fixing IT systems, but also about opening doors to a new world of financial opportunities. The exchange of knowledge and openness to new ideas allowed us to embrace a digitally and financially promising future.
He'll be attending meet-ups before you know it. Nice story.

Good. Smart boss. Nice story.
Reminds me of how I start being paid in BTC in 2016. Almost the same story, but wasn't my boss, was a client of mine. Same IT consulting services.
So I told to the CEO that I would like to be paid in BTC (the invoices will still be in fiat). He was skeptical first time but afetr few months insisting, he wanted me to explain more.
So I told him in simple terms (that a financial guy would understand) that if he will start buying little by little some BTC and just hold them as company reserve, in time will have much appreciation and purchasing power. And from that fund also could pay me or others that wanted to. Another option will be that his company will start accepting BTC for their services, but he didn't want that in the beginning. Later few years ago they started to accept.
And this guys was buying even more than M. Saylor at that time! And I know that are more companies like that, accumulating a lot of BTC but they are quiet about, not megalomaniacs like Saylor.
And that's how I start being paid in BTC, later more of my clients start doing the same. Insist, convince, educate: this is the trick.
