The fast food chain Steak 'n Shake will issue bonuses to hourly workers in the form of Bitcoin

According to market news, the American fast-food chain Steak 'n Shake announced that it will grant Bitcoin bonuses to hourly employees at its company-owned stores, accumulating at a rate of $0.21 per hour worked starting from March 1, with a two-year vesting period before they can be redeemed.

Based on a 40-hour work week, employees can accumulate approximately $436.8 worth of Bitcoin each year. The final value will depend on the market price of Bitcoin two years later. The chain began accepting Bitcoin payments at select locations last year, with all Bitcoin sales revenue going into the company's "strategic Bitcoin reserve."
