I vote Greece. People are talking about buying <i>cars</i> to move capital across borders once they introduce capital controls. Cars? I think bitcoin, with all it's problems, can out-compete a new Mercedes to store value in an internationally mobile way.

Ha ha. That is a laugh. Cars to move capital, when you have something like Bitcoin?
People still seem to be in the stone age.

Financial collapse is not the time when the average person looks into new and fangled ways even when they're blatantly superior. It brings out the conservative in most. Cars are an especially crappy way to do it though.

A car is about the worst store of value I could think of, unless it has loads of gold hidden inside it (or possibly it is an antique once owned by a famous person).

If I was greek I'd be doing what I'm doing now anyway, bitcoin, gold and silver, (with a couple of my fav alts thrown in)
