As Bitcoin gains acceptance, more people are vying to get their paycheck and other benefits in bitcoin. Famous athletes, politicians and everyday employees are now getting all or part of their salary this way.
New York City Mayor Eric Adams recently tweeted that he wants to receive his first three paychecks in bitcoin. And Miami Mayor Francis Suarez tweeted earlier this month that he's taking his next paycheck in bitcoin as well.
Sacramento Kings NBA sports team are set to become the first major sports franchise to offer employees and players a bitcoin payment option.
Former Carolina Panthers lineman, Russell Okung became the first NFL player to be paid in bitcoin after converting half of his $13 million salary last December. Since then, other top professional athletes have followed, including NFL players Aaron Rodgers, Trevor Lawrence, Sean Culkin, Saquon Blakely and NBA player Cade Cunningham.
So why not you? Now is a great time to convert your fiat cash into Bitcoin paychecks.
