Well, nice of him to be progressive. I believe there are al ot of folks out there who are waiting to see if he'll honor his word. Truth be told if he really does take his first three paychecks in bitcoin, it's going to make a whole world of difference. That being said, I observed that from the interview, it seems to me he hesitated before giving a response to the question. I must say that this is something that can be quickly misunderstood and misinterpreted most especially by critics and those who which to see bitcoin die if it reoccurs.
That is why he responds laughing as he can't answer yet if he is willing to take the risk and get his first Bitcoin paycheck. I don't think that he hesitates to answer it yes but has no clarity about his words for now. I'm waiting also for him to show his paycheck and if that going to happen, this could obviously make a huge change and others will follow.
I don't mind what his critics will say, they are too naive not to understand the situation and they likely not until the Mayor will prove that they are wrong and take the opportunity to start making a change.
I have this feeling that this mayor is quite afraid too to see his first paycheck in bitcoin so that is why his answer is not clear enough. Instead, he started to cite the positive side having this dips. But honestly, if we can trace all the price falls for bitcoin, there are no chances that its price did not recover. Its price has even made it more valuable after the market has recover. So there's no need to fear this time, as we are only given good opportunity to buy those potential coins in the market while they are still at sale.
