There is a link on there web site to email them with more info about bitcoin. Does anyone want to help them become more informed? Or maybe some suggestions that would be beneficial for bitcoin.

It'll be easy to spot the early adopters, they be slow to change from BTC.

None the less the rate should have been cBTC = XBY (a lost opportunity.)

From XE.com, although it does not say which exchange(s) they are getting the buy/sell from:
Quote from: XE.com
The rates in our free information services are neither "buy" nor "sell" rates. Instead, they are mid-market rates derived from the mid-point between the "buy" and "sell" rates from global currency markets. Our free information services always list the mid-market rate because it indicates the value of a currency that is not weighted towards buying or selling.

How is the rate calculated does anyone know?
why XBT? (and not BTC)
why not cBTC or 1 mBTC for that matter?

I think this deserves its own thread. Bitcoin is now on XE, the world's most popular currency conversion site:

http://www.xe.com/currencyconverter/convert/?Amount=1&From=XBT&To=USD

It was put on Oanda a few months ago, so now it's listed on the two largest currency conversion sites.

Yeah, but too bad both XE and Oanda only offer price quotes for it. They don't have it able for trading.
I think when/if they make it available on their forex trading platforms, it will help to bring more stability to the exchange rate.

It's currently standing on the last page of the currency's . ( http://www.xe.com/currency/ ). So not a lot people are gonna see it there. Maybe if we click on the page for Bitcoin a lot, it will appear between the popular currency's and thus also on their homepage. Maybe the result will then be that more people will know Bitcoin. If it helps a little bit it's worth the effort in my opinion.

Thanks for posting this - having zero familiarity with XE, could someone explain or speculate on how (if?) this will help BTC?

They use xe for trip reimbursement when traveling abroad on business trips.
