Probably since the process of a big enough sale like a house has plenty of paperwork involved, just average the exchange rate between start/verbal agreement and final pay? 

It's not like we've never done large deals across FX before

How would you go about selling something like a house? An agreed upon price or whatever price it is on settlement date? Buying OTC has the same issue.

IMO if you're worried about volatility during the sale, wait till it's 10% higher than the price you're happy with to give yourself a buffer.

I'll try find these later. Probably from Jan/Feb this year. You forgot?

When you agree to buy or sell at a particular rate it needs to be accepted that it could immediately move up or down. Otherwise Bitcoin is simply not going to used as a currency.

 it does this, randomly and unpredictably, shafting one party to any given transaction, big moves like these we should reimburse/make amends to our trading partners.

no, I think it's the exact opposite. _Because_ it does this, randomly and unpredictably, shafting one party to any given transaction, big moves like these we should reimburse/make amends to our trading partners.
