Recently, I convinced them to start paying me in BTC. I save what I have to save, and convert the rest to fiat via P2P trading. Its so quicker and I get great deals, no more bullshit. I think this has been a great benefit of crypto for underdeveloped nations.
For the company to go with your preferred choice of payment, they too must be making a saving but for book keeping purposes I don't think this helps them much unless the invoice goes under as a crypto payment...

I have been accumulating bitcoin from a long time from my freelance work, but getting paid in it by my regular work feels awesome!
The writing tells the whole story, hope you onboarding other users onto the crypto boat  Cool



This sounds a bit strange to me.

I live in an underdeveloped country, but I work remotely for a fairly good web development agency. We don't have a lot of financial services/wallets here, so we had to go circumvent a lot of obstacles for me the money to get to my local bank account.

Does he pay you with black money? I find it hard to believe that a bank would have problems with you receiving income from a job, as long as it is legal and declared.
Considering Op mentioned having fewer financial services in his locality.. this could mean interbank transactions and a  possibility of delays to get this processed  hence going the Bitcoin way....
