Just a few days ago they were indeed talking about giving tokens as bonus.
That's one the most insanely stupid things I've ever heard. Tokens are a tool used to do your job, a business expense, not fucking compensation.
Are the kWh that you use to light and air condition an office part of your compensation? How about toner and paper in the office printer?
If those tokens are a bonus, they're yours, right? So you can burn half your annual salary worth of tokens translating Microsoft Encarta 95 into Klingon, and they will foot the bill?
Is company chit still illegal if it’s a bonus?
