Over the last few months, I've sold one or two items for bitcoins total, in the last week or so, I've sold about twenty. I'm far from complaining, it's great news, I'm just a little confused as to the huge, abnormal, spike.

Anyone know why?

I am not sure why too. But it seems Bitcoin has become very popular to the South American. Most of the new Bitcoin buyers are from South America countries.

It's because Stellar cryptocurrency is on fire. You signup at Stellar foundation and they give you 10 dollars worth of this coin, then, you can exchange this to BTC in pages like Justcoin or BX. So.... in the las 10 days, a huuuuughe number of people are getting 10 dollars worth of BTC. Since you need a legal facebook account to get this 10/12 dollars, a lot of people using his girlfriend, family and friends facebook accounts are getting a lot of BTC. A bunch of them from Taringa! (www.taringa.net), there is a big community of gamers and traders, 99% from South America (like me).
