There’s A Bitcoin Bar In NYC. Why?

It’s 2023 and the crypto community is hoping to pull out of its funk this year and put the blowups, bankruptcies and price slumps of the last year in the rear-view mirror.

While some remain hopeful - churning out ideas for a more fruitful, and perhaps community-driven, crypto future, others are still smarting from last year’s carnage. But now, both groups have a place where they can toast a revival – or drown their sorrows – at a new Bitcoin-themed bar in New York. It’s called PubKey.

Pubkey recently opened in lower Manhattan and it’s a short walk away from New York University’s college campus. The bar is meant to attract a community of Bitcoin enthusiasts along with the Bitcoin curious.

Bloomberg reporter Vildana Hajric recently went to Pubkey with colleague Muyao Shen. They join this episode to talk about what they saw and what this bar could mean for the Bitcoin community.
