Oh my god! Brazil breaks the ice first! Supports Bitcoin payments for salaries! What does this mean?! This acknowledges the value of #BTC🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
💰 New way for Brazilian workers: Salary paid in $BTC ? Don’t rush to resign!
#
Recently, there was a buzz in Brazil: someone in the parliament proposed that bosses can pay salaries in Bitcoin from now on!
You read that right, digital gold on the payslip.
But don’t get too excited, the rules are as follows:
👷♂️ Workers can only receive half in Bitcoin, the other half must be in Reais (Brazil’s currency), to prevent you from taking all in Bitcoin and then the price drops and you can’t even afford instant noodles!
🧑💻 Freelancers and foreign remote workers can receive the full amount in Bitcoin, since your income is already like opening a blind box, you win some, you lose some.
📉 Bosses cannot arbitrarily set the exchange rate, for example, if today 1 BTC = 100,000 Reais, the boss cannot pay you based on 80,000, that would be fraud, not innovation.
📜 Everything depends on the employee's willingness; if you want to convert it back to cash, just let them know next month!
So why is Brazil doing this?
It’s simple:
🌍 They want to become the “internet celebrity country” in the crypto space
🪙 Attract foreign web3 companies to invest
👶 Provide young people with another financial entry point
👴 Allow the elderly to continue receiving Reais to buy medicine with peace of mind
🌐 Overseas workers can also send money home using BTC, saving on transfer fees
But a word of caution:
Bitcoin can buy an iPhone today, but tomorrow it might only buy a phone case.
If you really dare to take your salary entirely in BTC, I suggest you—
👀 Convert some to instant noodle money first,
🧠 Then think about freedom or wealth.
The bill is still fighting in Congress, even if it passes, it will take at least six months to implement.
But this idea is already enough to make people in the crypto space restless.
