What grey/black market sites accept eth. Pretty sure most of them historically have been Bitcoin based.

eth is traded to and from bitcoin on various exchanges, so it's a parallel.

eth is also traded to and from USD on various exchanges, so that's a parallel, too?

So is the USD and a bunch of other currencies, what's your point? You can also trade ETH for USD on most big exchanges.
