Well the truth is that no country needs to accept Bitcoin for Bitcoin to succeed. All that they need to do is not ban it.

How incredibly convenient that banning it would be so incredibly ineffective.  Cheesy

Heheh.
Who woulda thought  that designing a decentralized, permissionless blockchain would have ended up creating something with no centralized point of attack and no points to coerce?
Amazing.

The Greeks are not that known for technological innovation (at least the modern day Greeks). So I don't think that Greece will be among the early adopters. In my opinion, some of the smaller nations in the Europe and Pacific (such as Guernsey, Alderney, Lichtentstein, Vatican, Nauru, Tuvalu.etc) might be the first ones.

Not a chance, Greece is too worried about keeping themselves in good favor with Germany and will do nothing to harm that.

Parliamentary elections are scheduled for Greece in two months time. A lot will depend on who will win these elections. If the establishment parties win, then they will stick with Euro. On the other hand, if the radicals win, then they will bring back the Drachma (or replace the Euro with Ruble). In any case, there is zero chance of Bitcoin becoming the national currency.

If I was actually going to answer this question within it's bounds ( Grin), I would choose Iceland.

  • Large IT industry (skills and infrastructure to support)
  • Small population (~ 300, 000)
  • Vulnerable national currency
  • Capital controls
  • Liberal mindset
  • Economic malaise

No one important or less important country will adopt bitcoin banning its currency. there are to many factors that make bitcoin in adaptable for the monetary policy of one country. Anyhow a curiosity: It is a new country (private country which is talked that has adopted bitcoin as a currency. For the moment there live only one person. Its name is Liberland. https://liberland.org/en/about/

There are many economy experts in government structure, which I guess they wont let their country accept bitcoin since the government wont get any profit from that. But if they do, then I guess they have plans behind that. Anyway Australia has bigger chance to become the first country that accept bitcoin imo.

Unfortunately there is no any single word of bitcoin included in wikipedia page about Liberland Sad

Calm down. The only thing that's happened in Australia so far is that the tax department overreacted (double GST) then the senate recommended a change which is rather more in the opposite direction. It remains to be seen how the govt will ratify this, and still manage to screw up bitcoin companies.

The government still trying to get a way about how bitcoin will give advantages for them if bitcoin is accepted. For now, there is no country will accept bitcoin easily since bitcoin could make their people to avoid some taxes with using it.

I don't know which country would be the first but i do know it won't be my country (india) and does it really matter if any country accepts bitcoin as official payment method or not? i don't think so,because the purpose of bitcoin is already served that is bitcoin is decentralised Smiley
