At this point its too late for anything to save Greece, fiat currency has already done its damage. It may push some people to realize that governments controlling money is not a good idea, and begin their way to financial freedom.

btc isn't helping greece people at all with this volatility and the incoming doom with the gavincoin-attack. Marketcap could evaporate within a day or two. It's not helping anyone with Gavin attacking it in the background.
I think greek people will go back using silver and gold other things as currency. Maybe still the euro after leaving euro zone or Us-Dollar. There is enough tangible options for greeks. No need for them to mess with this digital stuff which most of them would delete anyways.
Greeks will go with Euro, Ruble, Us-Dollar, Silver, Cigarettes and Ouzo for currency but not bitcoin (thanks to latest drama surrounding Gavin)

For some reason I don't think you intended the focal point of your post to be on Greece. |

No it's not. They're run out "fiat money" that's why they have economical crysis. Why're they moneyless? Because they don't "work", they don't "produce", so they don't "export products" to have money. Even if they adopt bitcoin they have to work to get bitcoin. Problem is that they don't work. They need Merkel's (Germans' Discipline)  |

Bitcoin cannot save Greece. As many people said in the forums, me included, Greece's problem is not currency... It's debt. Bitcoin wouldn't solve their problem!

nope for sure, and here is why: If Greeks already have cash in hand, bitcoin is unnecessary. If they don’t, then bitcoin is unattainable. It’s a bank liquidity crisis. source: https://twitter.com/aantonop/status/615571506630905856they just have debts and EU (Germany) simply don't want to fund this party anymore. anyway, true madness will start, once they we regain access to their money in banks again.. |

Greece has already reached its limits. Their debt in IMF is already close on deadline or as I type this statement, they're already pass the deadline. Bitcoin can't do anything about their debt. nope for sure, and here is why: If Greeks already have cash in hand, bitcoin is unnecessary. If they don’t, then bitcoin is unattainable. It’s a bank liquidity crisis. source: https://twitter.com/aantonop/status/615571506630905856they just have debts and EU (Germany) simply don't want to fund this party anymore. anyway, true madness will start, once they we regain access to their money in banks again.. I mean who would fund Greece? They can't even pay the interest. |

Even if the Greeks themselves aren't responsible for the sudden rise in the Bitcoin price, it doesn't mean the Greek debt crisis isn't driving it…

I mean who would fund Greece? They can't even pay the interest. It's a long shot but Turkey may loan money to Greece. Turkish Prime minister says "We paid our debt to IMF and now we're in a position to loan money to IMF". Also current PM said that "Greek people may come and work in Turkey". So I guess current Turkish gov may loan money. If they don't pay debt then maybe we have some of the islands in Aegean sea |

Greece is a German Civil Law country. This essentially means that the government rules, and that there isn't any freedom except what the government allows. Does the government of Greece allow Bitcoin? If the people don't take the government down en masse, the government is dictator. If the government is smart, they will do what it takes to keep the people appeased enough that there is no revolution. This means some Bitcoin, but not enough to make any real difference. |

Absolutely. Fear of the contagion effect, uncertainty about Grexit's impact on Europe, etc may drive people to buy bitcoins. Even people in China and Russia could be buying bitcoins because of the Greek debt crisis. |

Greece needs access to fiat currency right now. Bitcoin is the exact opposite of what the country needs right now. Highly volatile in value, can't be created at whim, not controlled by a friendly central bank.

My opinions is only 1% of Greeks know about BTC and the other just ignore it, including all people that might have an influence about BTC being accepted by Greece.
And that Greece has no short term salvation

BTC doesn't strike me as being a white knight riding in to save Greece. Besides the problem having to do with debt levels and government obligations, it's also too deeply rooted to solve quickly in any way. Greece is just going to be on the ropes for a while. I don't know where their silver lining could be.
