Thanks.

Good to know. Learned something new about blockchain.info.
Hope it is useful to someone else too  Wink

I lock this thread, because I think everything has been said already.

There's also a dropdown at the bottom of the page that you can use to display amounts in some specific currency.
Also on that list are mBTC and bits, which are 1/1000 and 1/1000000 units of BTC!

Like others said it's the current exchange rate at Blockchain.
You can set it back by clicking on the green button/icon with the amount of value on it.

Hmmm.  Can't change it back.
Click any green/red field with a value to toggle between dollars and Bitcoins. No need to restart your browser for it, it's a feature.

It isn’t. It is just set on your browser to show the dollar value. Click the dollar value to switch it back.

Are you saying, that you do not see dollars in blockchain.info ? I only see dollars in every address now. I thought it must be a funny bug in blockchain.info  

Edit: Ok. now got bitcoins back. I restarted the browser, and erased recent history.

How is it possible that some addresses have dollars in them instead of bitcoins?
Example here:
https://blockchain.info/address/37X5mtn38nHj9ZtDeyZKfvwWjjuguNdvgK
And dollar transaction:
https://blockchain.info/tx/1269e5050787fc26d49f619c1a1ca1446fd4ba2789c2c5865dd9853ec471eeef

Can I now convert BTC directly to digital dollars? How is it done?
