Miami Mayor Francis Suarez said he’s still taking his city salary in Bitcoin even after a rout that sent the cryptocurrency down almost 40% over the past two months.

“I will note, for the record, that it’s not my only salary,” he told a panel at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, on Tuesday. “It’s a different decision than if a person was deciding to take their salary in Bitcoin if it was the only source of income for them.”
