I hope they pawn that monopoly money for the real deal immediately after collection.

  Accounting for crypto is already an unstandardised accounting and control nightmare. It'll be cashed out on point.

  In your zeal to jump on the bandwagon and hate on something that I assume you don't understand (based on your analogy), you failed to read the article: > The state is working with the cryptocurrency payment startup BitPay to handle its payments, which will convert the bitcoin to dollars. Also, unless you know of a way to exchange "monopoly money" for "the real deal," (and please share if you do, because I have a pile of that just sitting in a game box and scattered around my house thanks to my kids) your analogy is flawed and inaccurate.

    So basically this is letting BitPay tax your tax payments? What a marvelous idea.

      Not sure if you are being sarcastic or not, but I don't recall seeing anywhere that there won't be a fee for paying in bitcoin. They already allow credit cards (which take a cut too) and simply pass along the fee. I see no reason they wouldn't do the same thing with any fee that BitPay adds.
