More Canadian employees accepting salary in Bitcoin

A small but rising number of employees in Canada are collecting their salaries in Bitcoin, according to Wagepoint, a Waterloo, Ontario-based payroll company.
In an interview with the Canadian Press, Wagepoint CEO Shrad Rao said his company first came up with the Bitcoin payment option last November as a side project and did not expect any reception.
But as Bitcoin’s popularity grew this year, said Rao, staff from 10 companies have selected the Bitcoin option, and many more are asking about it.
