A company did an interesting social media experiment on people's acceptance of cryptocurrency as a method of payment for salary.

And I think it is actually a clever way of promoting their token sale, more potential to go viral than other promotional videos I've seen. Anyway, personally I think I would be happy to take cryptocurrency as at least part payment for salary, and depending on circumstances, the whole amount.
This may be possible for some but for me, I'd rather take my salary in cash and I will be the one to buy bitcoin or any coins. Also, it would be difficult for companies because they have to pay huge amount of transaction fees. Likewise, once a wrong address will be put in, then it would be a greta lose for the company.
