Title: Bitcoin -> Argentine pesos gets you 25% more than USD -> Pesos Post by: fimp on October 22, 2012, 09:19:47 PM http://thebluemarket.wordpress.com/2012/10/18/bitcoin-dollars-and-pot-banging-protests-in-argentina/
Quote if you are an expat or just travelling through I encourage you to explore bitcoin as an alternative to finance your stay. Not only will you get a 25% higher exchange rate but you will also help locals protect their savings from being hollowed by inflation. I believe the bitcoin adventure is just kicking off in Argentina.
