LN? what's this? If you have to slap on bandage solutions to technology then it isn't a stable system. You need a system that's self-sufficient or open for extension when you have to tackle such problems. Consider Monero.
You are telling me its my problem, that isn't the question, I do not have a problem, my question to you was: Who is the employer paying in crypto
I will entertain you, however. I do not want to paid in crypto because making your employer take additional steps is a luxury. They'll ask you to comply to business rules or find someone else to do the job. I would much rather trade fiat for monero outside of it.
