Keeping on the adjacent theme of the metaverse and all that it brings, it’s been a wild ride this year in cryptoland, many cryptocurrencies reached ATH’s. Venezuela adopted it as a legal tender in September and have allowed its citizens to even pay their taxes using Bitcoin. The President often tweets “buy the dip”.New York’s newly elected Mayor, Eric Adams, said he wants his first 3 pay cheques in Bitcoin. Many football players in MLS and sports stars in the US are now taking a portion of their salaries in cryptocurrency. The ability to be paid in crypto isn’t available in the UK...well, not yet, anyway.So with all this said and is being more receptive of investing in cryptocurrencies, do you/we really believe in its value that we would allow our full/partial salary to be paid in Bitcoin/another form of cryptocurrency?Aʟʟ ᴠɪᴇᴡs ᴀʀᴇ ᴏᴜʀ ᴏᴡɴ If you have any feedback or topics you'd like us to discuss, please reach out on Instagram @takeflightpodcast or email us at takeflightpodcast@gmail.com Hosted on Acast.
