I have seen a few companies hiring people with Ethereum, and Bitcoin purchases in the employee's name as their advertised and sexy retirement plan. Strikes me as pure idiocy. What do you think?
Personally probably not unless I can cash it out right away/I have that choice.
Also retirement is not something I really count on. My own plan is to make enough/invest it. That old FIRE idea. I have hopped around jobs wise I probably have random 401K's here and there with a few dollars in them.
I probably wouldn't elect to have my retirement account be in crypto, but not because I think it's dumb to do it.
My crypto portfolio has outperformed my 401k by more than 5x at this point. I just like to stay diversified and it's easy enough for me to put a portion of my own income into crypto, and dollar cost average so it's basically just a supplemental 401k without the government restrictions on how much I can put into it.
Sure if it's paid into a wallet I control the keys to, and is paid in an equivalent amount to normal retirement plans. Otherwise no, I can buy my own cryptocurrency thank you.
