Riffing off of this post about paying rent in bitcoin, as mental masturbation, I've considered if I would accept my salary as a standard bitcoin amount, rather than accepting dollars.

I think with the ETFs and Halving upon us, it is easy for me to answer "yes" to this now - but a year or two ago, it may have been harder. What if bitcoin does take a nosedive?

Let's say you have a $50,000/year salary. Would you agree to an 1.163 btc/year salary, if you had to agree and follow-through for the next 4 years?

For any employee who thinks the price will go up over the next 4 years, I think it would be a worthwhile deal to make.

The employee (person) would net a lot more $ value - and more bitcoin than they could ever buy with dollars.

On the other hand, the employer (company) could buy the bitcoin right now, but I am not clear that there would be any real benefit for the company in this deal, unless they already hold a lot of bitcoin that was acquired at a lower cost.
