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

Looks as though it could possibly have been staged by the company (I don't think so??), but the results seemed similar to what I would expect if it was genuine. 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.
I do not think this is a good idea, if they pay us with Bitcoin, the value of Bitcoin must be the same as paper money. For example, when the price of a bitcoin goes down, our monthly wages will go down at bitcoin prices, I do not think anyone wants this to happen.
