Stablecoin salaries: cash-out costs fall on the employee

  • With a 1% fee on exchange and withdrawal, a $2,000 salary becomes $1,980
  • Galaxy Payroll Group launched its stablecoin payroll service on September 2
  • Deel updated its guidance for employers on September 17
  • USDC can only be exchanged for dollars through qualified Circle clients
Why it matters: The growth of stablecoin salaries could run into claims from employees and regulators over hidden costs and tax uncertainty.
