yeah, personally i think banks are ripoffs, haha i dont like banks in general.. though i would be willing to pay a fee to have a faster transaction rather than saving a couple of bucks yet get days of delay, money is replaceable, time is not.
one would consider them as major, usually major currencies in my opinion are the USD JPU GBP EUR AUD CAD, exotics are the rare ones the ones that are the hardest to predict with little info about them.
