I was curious if given the opition would you or would you not get all pay in 100% bitcoin.

As of this moment, I think that most of us here will choose not to be paid in Bitcoin right now but in the future maybe some will do it.

I see two reasons why most will not choose Bitcoin as their form of payment especially in salaries.

1. Volatility - we know how volatile Bitcoin is. Today your Bitcoin's worth is $100 but tomorrow it can be halved or at the same time double. For some people, this is a bit risky because instead of having USD they choose to be paid in BTC and what if the value of Bitcoin lowered then they will receive a lower wage compare to if they just choose to be paid on USD which is less volatile.
2. Acceptance - not all establishments are accepting Bitcoin right now and it will be more hassle for them if they will choose Bitcoin as a form of payment because they need to convert it and then withdraw (unless they will transfer it to their cards). Now all establishments are accepting fiat currency so they will just accept USD as their payment instead of BTC.

Well outside crypto, I don't think that most of the companies will anyway.
In freelancing, I had read that crypto are paid to some platforms and that's quite nice. There are some online wallets that would allow people to convert BTC to local currency like my country uses, although I don't recommend anyone to use it.
New Zealand kinda allowed the salary payment, iirc starting September 1, 2019.
