As it turns out, Forex traders are a creative bunch and don't like being limited to trading the currency pairs available at the moment. Some time ago, a developer named Satoshi Nakamoto decided to create a decentralized, completely digital currency. As a result of his hard work, now there is a significant group of traders that have been successfully trading this currency right under our noses for the past few years. The currency and open source software used for trading are both called Bitcoin.

it's interesting seeing rates written from a Forex trader's perspective:

Wonder if she feels the need to be authorized by .gov to do other perfectly natural things? ... like eating?, sleeping?, taking a piss?

Some people are such mind-slaves that they will never see the mind-chains that bind them.
