(CCN) Invoiced.com, a billing service that allows businesses to create invoices and accept online payments, has started to allow its customers to accept bitcoin.

(Inside Bitcoins) The former DEA agent who is accused of extorting Silk Road administrator Dread Pirate Roberts and stealing funds from the former online marketplace was also a compliance officer at bitcoin exchange CoinMKT during his time at the DEA.
