Patrick Hughes, who owns Hellcat Annie’s Tap Room and Scruffy Duffy’s, at 637 and 639 Tenth Avenue respectively, near West 45th Street, is looking to sell his two bars for 25 bitcoins or 800 Ethereum tokens. That’s equivalent to about $875,000 in U.S. currency.“I’m hoping to catch one of these crypto dudes who always wanted to own a bar,” Hughes tells the Post. He’s fielded some informal inquiries so far, and has posted a sign out front that indicates the bars are up for sale in Bitcoin.Bitcoin real estate sales are still uncommon, but they’re not unheard of.
