Jay Best walked into the Thelonious Monkfish restaurant in Cambridge’s Central Square earlier this month with no intention of paying for his sushi rolls with cash or a credit card. Best planned to settle the tab with bitcoin, a virtual currency used around the world to buy everything from baklava to marijuana.
“If we’re the first restaurant in New England accepting bitcoin, it’s a no-brainer,” said Jamme Chantler, owner of Thelonious Monkfish. “There’s a big group of people willing to drive 50 miles just to use it at my restaurant.”
