(MENAFN) Bitcoin has started trading on a big exchange for the first time in what is believed to be a closer step to legalize the digital currency.
The trade opening on Sunday valued Bitcoin at 15,000 USD, as its futures were unstable for the first 20 minutes, going up to nearly 16,000 USD before decreasing again.
Expectations of the first mainstream listings have contributed in increasing the currency over 10,000 USD, as it was trading at nearly 15,230 USD on Monday.
So far, the controversial currency is not legitimized in any country's central bank, and without any commonly standard exchange rate.
