“A majority of U.S technology professionals would welcome being paid in bitcoin, according to a survey by event organizer Tech in Motion. Out of 847 responses to a questionnaire sent to Tech in Motion’s 18,000 members, 51.12% answered ‘yes, absolutely,’ to the question ‘Would you be interested in being paid for your work in cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin?’ A further 18.06% ticked ‘Maybe, let’s see where Bitcoin is in a year or two,’ with the remainder saying that they would prefer to be paid in traditional currency. Just 9.92% rejected the option because they ‘do not think Bitcoin will last,’ and 1.18% said they didn’t know what bitcoin was.”
