The reality in Europe is that there are few places where you can spend satoshis, and employers are still not very receptive to paying in bitcoin. I've already tried to get part of my salary paid in bitcoin, and I was met with a big NO. It's not easy...
Yeah ok, but it's necessary at all if you know you can convert it to bitcoin asap after pay it's the same thing. Rightnow most employers don't even understand what #Bitcoin is so no poimt asking them.

not true. check btcmap.org
My rent, food and office space are all paid with btc
If you want salary in btc just use bitwage, and give the employer that IBAN

Partially true, because it depends on where you live. I don't think anyone in their right mind would drive hundreds of kilometers to spend satoshis. Regarding income, it will depend a lot on the landlord and the legal framework. Converting my salary into bitcoin in this way makes no sense to me because I already have a well-defined bitcoin purchase plan.

Bitcoin spending can be easy too if you use sites like bitrefill, buy a gift card using lightning and use that giftcard pay for things, that's just a thought.
