> neither of them would pay in BTC. One of the interviewers even laughed when I asked this is an entertaining anecdote, thank you for sharing. wonder if there's a bit of a "there's a gold rush going on, so sell picks and shovels" mindset -- i.e. you don't necessarily have to believe that investing in bitcoin is a good idea to make a profitable living selling bitcoin-related financial services. there's a pretty big difference in asking for an annual salary of e.g. $100k usd, to be paid in btc at the current exchange rate, versus asking for an annual salary of 2.17 btc (apparently 2.17 btc = $100k usd at time of writing). which one did you ask for? i personally wouldn't be comfortable signing a 12 month lease where i agree to pay the landlord a fixed amount of btc. i prefer my long-term liabilities to be predictable and boring, not amplified by volatility from speculative asset classes. might be the same for how the company thinks about its labor expenses.
