Title: Can I see a chart of the Exchange Rate? Post by: Hairyloon on January 10, 2012, 03:21:40 AM I find the idea of BitCoins quite interesting, but at the end of the day, it comes down to what are they worth?
I have heard various mutterings about what Bitcoins have been worth. It seems, like any currency, they have gone up and down. Presumably, there is a record of this somewhere. Where might I find it?

That is, we assume that all the mined coins are sold off on the exchanges etc. and not hoarded. |
