Miami's Bitcoin-back mayor has announced that he will accept 100% of his next paycheck in BTC.
American lawyers want to pay with Bitcoin
Miami Mayor Francis Suarez, who supports Bitcoin, said on Twitter on Tuesday that he would pay 100% of his next salary in Bitcoin.
His comments came in response to a question posted on Twitter by Morgan Creek Digital partner Anthony Pompliano. "Who was the first American official to receive a Bitcoin salary?" "
In a tweet, Mayor Suarez asked Mike Sarasty, chief information officer and Miami mayor's director of innovation and technology, to help achieve that goal. Saras said on Twitter that she would help with "marketing." Incredible, there are two "100" symbols and a Bitcoin symbol.
The Miami president's remarks came as more and more athletes and sports teams, including Russell Okung, Tom Brady, Aaron Rodgers, Saquon Barkley and Sean Culkin, demanded Bitcoin.
Among US officials, the mayor of Miami is one of Bitcoin's most vocal supporters. In addition to allowing government taxpayers in cryptocurrency, it welcomes city officials to allow them to pay in BTC and allow the city to invest some of its money in Bitcoin. He said cryptocurrency was "the most important" as he planned to make his city the cryptocurrency capital of the world in October. When China broke away from cryptocurrency and bitcoin mining, it tried to lure bitcoin miners to its city.
Several other markets have also claimed their support for Bitcoin, including President Jackson, Tennessee and member of Cool Valley, Missouri.
Another Bitcoin supporter, US Senator Cynthia Lummis, reiterated that Bitcoin is a great way to hold value.
"I was beaten up by a man in Miami. Good job."
