Bitcoins Get a Thanksgiving Treat of $1,224 per Bitcoin

Bitcoins represent the electronic currency that you have been reading about so much in the press on a daily basis. Last week, I wrote an article called How to Invest in Bitcoins Without Owning Bitcoins, which has had thousands of viewers, even though it was a holiday week. At that time, bitcoins were selling for $824.

The current owners of bitcoins should give thanks for their Thanksgiving bonus of bitcoins trading on November 28 at $1,224 per bitcoin. Not too bad, considering that bitcoins were trading at around $200 each about a month ago.

According to MtGox, bitcoins traded as high as $1,242 on November 29 and up to $1,233 on Noember 30.
