Župan Miamija je postal prvi politik, ki je prejel 100-odstotno plačo v bitcoinih

Francis Suarez, the sitting Župan Miamija city announced he will receive his entire paycheck in Bitcoin, making him the first sitting politician to do so. Earlier, NFL stars and other athletes were seen taking some part or even their entire paycheck in Bitcoin, but never a sitting politician has done so. However, given Suarez’s love for $ BTC, it didn’t come as a big surprise either.

Mayor Suarez has been one of the biggest proponents of Bitcoin and working towards making Miami the crypto city of the US. He is working towards building clean Bitcoin mining facilities as well as allowing government employees to receive their salary in $BTC as well. At one point, the Mayor has also proposed to invest the city’s funds into Bitcoin, but that plan didn’t go through as existing state laws don’t allow for investment in digital assets.

Miami has also become the first city to have its own native crypto token called Miami kovanec, which has been built on top of the Bitcoin blockchain and mines new coins every ten minutes. The funds generated from mining Miami coins would be utilized for the welfare of the city.

Miami vodi Crypto City Bandwagon

Ker so kriptovalute postale vse bolj priljubljene, so politiki in lokalne vlade začeli z njimi eksperimentirati v svojem obstoječem finančnem sistemu, da bi jutri postale kriptovalute.

Samo v ZDA je več županov na svojih volitvah obljubilo, da bodo svoje mesto naredili za kripto središče, vendar se zdi, da je Miami trenutno leta naprej. Druga mesta, ki poskušajo posnemati kripto uspehe Miamija, so Florida, New York in še nekaj drugih. Ker se centralne vlade seznanjajo z napredkom kriptovalut, bi lahko vlade držav zdaj pridobile večjo moč za kripto mesto.
