Second Life: Euro reaches All-Time-High of over 400 Linden dollars per Euro


The continued weakness of the US dollar versus the Euro helped push the Euro higher versus the Linden Dollar as well: At 12 noon, the mid-price (i.e. the average of bid and ask prices) of the EUR/SLL cross on the euroSLEX pushed through resistance at 400 and reached 403.4. This is the highest level since euroSLEX opened december last year. The Swiss Franc also reached a new high at 248 Linden Dollars. "This means that Second Life gets cheaper for our customers, because they can get more Linden Dollars for their Euros" said Iliana Suppan, managing director of Virtual World Services GmbH, the company behind euroSLEX.

well, I don't know whether any novelty is in payments for buying petrol with virtual money, but I will mark day in calendar as "new era" when anyone could buy some petrol or food or pay house rent with Linden dollars or even Lufthansa miles ;)
