Transactions must be included in a block to be properly completed. When you send a transaction, it is broadcast to miners. Miners can then optionally include it in their next blocks. Miners will be more inclined to include your transaction if it has a higher transaction fee.

Liberty Reserve was rapidly eating away the market share of Paypal, when the Americans decided to close it down. The US authorities wanted to protect the market share of Paypal, and were unhappy with the Liberty Reserve top management, which was almost-exclusively Russian / Russian-Jewish (Arthur Budovsky, Vladimir Kats, Maxim Chukharev, Mark Marmilev.etc).
