65 Percent of Working Americans Prefer Salary in Crypto: Skynova Survey
Crypto payments are getting mainstream attention worldwide. Recently, a survey revealed that Americans prefer Bitcoin as a new form of workplace compensation.
The survey was conducted by Skynova, the firm that offers invoicing software for small businesses and gauging both interest and experience surrounding the new form of compensation. Skynova surveyed more than 1,000 working professionals, including 797 employees and 205 managers.
65.5% of employees responded they would be at least somewhat willing to receive compensation in Cryptocurrencies. Also, just more than 28% classified themselves as very willing. Fewer than 10% rated the idea of their employers starting to offer salaries in Crypto as “very bad.” Moreover, 63% of millennials view compensation in Crypto as a perk. Indeed, the employees’ demography surfaced as an important factor
Almost a third of the respondents said they would quit their current job to pursue another that offered Crypto compensation, although if their current employer started doing so, 42.2% would quit. Such an attitude indicates that employees are keener to pursue new forms of payment on their own, instead of it being imposed on them.
When asked which Crypto they would like to receive their paychecks, the majority of working Americans (74.3%) said Bitcoin (BTC), followed by Ethereum (ETH) and Dogecoin (DOGE).
More than 200 of the respondents were managers that were in charge of hiring and compensation decisions. Cryptocurrency also played a major role while hiring, since 48.3% of those in charge of hiring were typically looking for Cryptocurrency experience. Also, while screening potential candidates, managers of small and large companies alike often looked for Crypto experience, while midsize companies with 50 to 249 employees were looking for this type of experience more often than not.
