Litmus copyright says founded 2005, they moved the business from London, UK to Cambridge, MA, USA in 2009. I went back to screenshots from 2010 and even then they already used USD https://web.archive.org/web/20101002224250/https://www.litmu...

> as Paul discovered when he stopped pricing exclusively in Euros (€)

In his case it was a lot more than 46%
