CoinVoice has recently learned that, according to DLNews, as the price of Bitcoin approaches $100,000 this year, New York City Mayor Eric Adams expressed satisfaction with his cryptocurrency salary decision. 'Remember when I first received my Bitcoin salary and you all laughed at me?' he said at a press conference on Tuesday. 'Now who’s laughing?'
When he took office in January 2022, Adams converted approximately $30,000 of his salary for the first three months into Bitcoin and Ethereum. According to the latest financial disclosure statement, his Bitcoin holdings were valued between $5,000 and $54,999 by the end of 2023. Besides Adams, Miami Mayor Suarez and Belgian Member of Parliament De Beukelaer have also opted to receive their salaries in Bitcoin. [Original link]
