They also announced progress in their U.S. re-launch, with full trading privileges for South Carolina and Nevada, and coin-to-coin trading for Texas. Later in the summer, additional U.S. and international support is expected.

Currently, their BTC/USD orderbook is showing a bid/ask of $574.90/$584.90, a spread of 1.7%. 24h volume is only 5.23 BTC.
