A bitcoin/cash 'capsule' hotel on one floor in this building....

...with a price point around $12/person/night.  (If a capsule hotel goes for ~$30 per night in Japan, it damn well ought to be less in a US city with one of the lowest costs of living in America)  A relatively small 'capsule' hotel compared to those that do well in Japan, but would be ideal for backpacking travelers, locals who get hammered while downtown and convention attendees; in addition to 'couch surfers' in between couches.  Minimalistic accomodations; a comfortable place to take a sh*t, safe place to get a warm shower, and a relatively secure place to sleep without getting your gear stolen or the cops kicking you in the dark.

Seems to fit well into this article's viewpoint about future investment strategies....

This kind of thing should work even better in larger cities such as Chicago.  I wonder why it's never been tried in the US.

Anyone know how much commericially manufactured 'capsule' bunks cost?
