Isn't bitwage KYC though?
In that sense, wouldn't it be better to be paid in a regular fiat bank account and manually buy non-kyc bitcoin every month?
you are free to do whatever you want.
There's no such thing as "non-kyc bitcoin". Please stop saying that.
If would exist then Bitcoin is a failed experiment.
KYC is bad because you are giving your personal info, and can end up in bad hands... not because other thing.
If you never sell back for fiat, it doesn't matter anymore, from where you bought the BTC.
If a gov agent comes to my door to ask me about my BTC bought from a KYC exchange (that will never happen) I will just tell them nicely to fuck away,. is not their damn business what I do with my own money.

Voluntarily tying UTXOs to your IRL identity seems like a good way to be tracked and controlled regardless of whether you sell for fiat or not.
Taxes is not the only threat, everyone is out to get you.
Are you saying privacy is not important?
A government can mark your utxos as tainted and decrease their fungibility/salability.

come and get it if you can...
another bullshit word: "tainted coins"... there's no such thing.

Then you don't have a very adversarial mindset.
You are basically choosing to ignore the problem for convenience's sake, thinking that walking naked on the supermarket is going to end well for you.

Why is so bad walking naked in a supermarket?
If you do not like to see me naked, don't watch.

There is no freedom without privacy.
If you don't think it's important, good luck with that...
I have a feeling deep down you don't really think like that and if I dig deep enough, I would find evidence of that in your blog.
