Buying a Bitcoin: (Slowly) Trading Through an Unregulated Market

“The subsequent media attention foisted on bitcoin piqued our curiosity. To explore the trend (or possible seismic shift) towards online-only currency, Equities.com decided to engage in an experiment where we’d delve head-first into the bitcoin market and buy one for ourselves.  As bitcoin lacks a backing central government as well as a sanctioned currency exchange, we had to pick one of the several independent online traders. After weighing options, we went through San Francisco start up Coinbase, and bought one bitcoin for $126.44 US.”
