Trying to buy £500 worth Bitcoin today via Bitcoinchain.info but they seem run out of Bitcoin. The demand has been increasing dramatically due to recent bitcoin price rise in the last few months.

I noticed that the only deposit method for the UK they now have on there is for the sofort banking transfers.

Has something happened between them and pingits operators, barclays? Maybe its the result of the newsnight article driving up demand past the UK's supply threshold.

I did buy bitcoin using Bank Transfer (from and to UK bank) and the transaction was successful after a few minutes. It is likely that after the BBC interview, people in UK start paying attention to Bitcoin.

There will be a lot of demand in the UK. Lots of people with lots of savings that have already gone through a series of banking disasters. If bitcoins are just hitting there, its another good reason why $100 "barrier" won't be anything of the sort.
