I'd be interested to learn more about if or how stock priced exclusively in BTC (i.e., never in USD) affects taxes.

Any info you could share would be appreciated :)

I'm assuming you are US-based. If you receive compensation in stock, no matter the currency denominator, it is income and is therefore subject to income tax.

Your employer should produce a W-2, and your share grant will be included.
