This article should not be speedily deleted for lack of asserted importance because other traditional Bitcoin exchanges are features on wikipedia as well, and local in-person exchanges are an unique phenomenon in Bitcoin space which has gained wide attention. The Localbitcoins website has been features on several medias, such as American Banker (http://www.americanbanker.com/bankthink/in-person-bitcoin-exchanges-are-thriving-1060061-1.html), Business Week (http://www.businessweek.com/articles/2012-11-29/dollar-less-iranians-discover-virtual-currency), Financial Times (http://www.ft.com/intl/cms/s/2/dc18a5be-c872-11e2-8cb7-00144feab7de.html) etc. --Jerguismi (talk) 10:22, 7 September 2013 (UTC)Reply
