Not all of us have the chance to talk with, or to ask Michael. Saylor a question. Imagine if you were able to get a chance to ask him one question, what would it be?

I wish they would. It would make it a lot easier for other companies to do so.
He's been asked this. I believe his answer was something along the lines of, if they want to be paid in bitcoin they can be (most of us know several ways of doing this). The reason they don't has to do with accounting and tax complexities. Not saying I agree with him. I'm not a CPA, tax expert, and have never run a publicly traded company. He's probably right that is simpler to use fiat and let the employees deal with it. I suspect if the tax code and accounting rules changed they would offer it. I do recall that general accounting rules changed recently and that will greatly help MSTR when reporting on their company balance sheets. I suspect the same would be true on this if the "rules" change.
When you play in the fiat world, run a public company or even a private company you have to abide by the rules of the state or they come after you. Its like Jesus said. Render unto Caesar what is Caesar's. If you play in the fiat world you live by their rules. Bitcoin will win because it is a new alternative system that can grow and overtake the old system.

For those that don't know. Pretty much anyone (employees) with a direct deposit can get paid in bitcoin now using services like Bitwage, Strike, and CashApp to name a few.
@DarthCoin has a guide for setting up Bitwage.
I would ask Saylor, what needs to change for Microstrategy to start paying employees in bitcoin?

Damn right question!
Once people start being paid in Bitcoin, all their life is changed.
I was bEing paid in bitcoin from 2016 and in 2018 when I said goodbye to all bank accounts, my life changed TOTALLY.

I’ve heard him argue to some level that bitcoin fails if we try changing or fucking with it (op_cat / BIPs etc) and mess up incentives.
More so curious if he has other opinions he doesn’t share publicly

That would be my question as well. Is being a bitcoiner a main criteria to promoting successors into C-level? Are shareholders and board already orangepilled enough to ensure the next CEO will be bitcoiner.
Hard to imagine.

There's little errors throughout like spelling, formatting, and things not rendering on the site, but overall the content and test/quizzes are great.

He is probably required to use a custodian, at least for the corp. Bitcoin, since it technically belongs to the shareholders, at least a portion of it.
