Hi Linuxuser,
I found about about the bitcoin too just today from a post on FF about a new broker that lets you deposit with this, bitforex or something.
Just downloaded their client/wallet or p2p software and its running, they state that it takes a whole day to synchronize the client with the p2p servers. I have it running, it's now about over 6 hours and it's still synchronizing lol
Will let you guys know how this works when I have my account with them.
Over here in India ex-changers are charging about 250 INR per bit coin, that would mean the value of 1 bitcoin is about $5 more or less in value, just to give you the idea of how much they are worth.
Regards,
Nick
