The company pays in cryptocurrency and requests a refund when the price increases.

According to the May 4 Cointelegraph, US real estate expert Quentin Fottrell argued that cryptocurrency companies compensate employees by promising them to get their tokens back after an increase in the cost of assets. The token rate rose 700% after an anonymous employee made a payment in the form of cryptocurrency in August 2020. On the day the employee writes this letter, the CEO can send an email requesting a refund of digital assets because "the business did not generate income and does not operate later." A business operates at the rate of the US dollar instead of the current value of cryptocurrencies. Although Fottrell claims that "paying employees in cryptocurrency is a risky risk for employers and employees," demanding reimbursement of wages from workers or a contract employee can take the company to court.
