https://news.bitcoin.com/costa-rican-workers-can-be-legally-paid-in-cryptocurrency/In this article we can read that a new breakthrough in bitcoin economy is realized. We are always talking in this forum of the possibility of workers being paid in bitcoin or in any form of cryptocurrency. Finally the government of Costa Rica is now on the move of making that dream a reality by legalizing cryptocurrency as part of the salary of the workers.
The real question is, if this trend will become successful in long term or will not last long?
This is not the first time a government allowed employers to pay their employees with Bitcoin or cryptocurrency, actually it is already happening is some other countries like japan. But this is a great news for workers from costa rica, since they can soon choose to receive part of their salaries in cryptocurrency. Hopefully, other governments will also implement this, and if the same thing will happen from other countries that made cryptocurrency legal, the demand on cryptocurrencies will surely increase drastically. I don't see any reason for this to not last long because receiving a cryptocurrency is also the same as receiving fiat as payment or salary, and it also has a value.
