Bitcoin Passes $200 Mark

Surge continues

The price of a Bitcoin now stands at $234.

That is really, really high.

Especially given that just three years ago, Bitcoins were worth one-quarter of one cent.

It was at this price when, according to Internet lore, Jacksonville resident "Laszlo" purchased a pizza for 10,000 BTC, or $25.
