@nathanmars was setting up a Crypto bed and breakfast in Sri Lanka:

@nathanmars/who-will-be-my-first-guest-crypto-bnb-in-sri-lanka-opens-1st-march-2022

Not sure how far he's got with it, but the idea was that you paid for your stay in crypto, and he was going to market it on Hive - as you say, using networks and connections here to get guests.

If he pulls it off, the people working at his B&B would have crypto derived jobs.
