His name was Tony Vaughn and he was from Kentucky. He was paid his salary in bitcoin in 2013 , at time when very few even heard about bitcoin. If he would have not sold those bitcoins that he got as salary, he would might have been a billionaire by now. Because bitcoin price at that time was just $1000 a piece , so his wealth would have been about 30 times at current prices.
He must be one of the most iconic figure in crypto world , one of the very few that trusted Bitcoin when it is still not on that popularity so how could we react on that?
If i was being asked to have bitcoin as salary those days? for sure I will deny because I may not trust that easy this world.
But if this happens to me in 2017? will surely accept it till now 2023 because of how much it has given to me all those years that i do understand bitcoin.
