The vote almost a foregone conclusion and therefore should be priced in already. There is an edge case that there will be a rebellion by the greek MP's and that should be hugely bullish for bitcoin. But otherwise this was decided at the eurogroup meeting. Grexit deferred.

As time goes on and people protect their keys better it is unlikely that the feds will have many more auctions.

We all need to work toward being able to drop our banks. Just chip away at those last few things that you're stuck using banks for until you can drop them completely. I am a month away from not using my bank ever again. I will wait until the end of year just to be sure, then drop it.

Horrific news for the Greek public. Banks closed until mid August so that 60 euro a day withdrawal limit will stay in place then. It must be a nightmare, absolute nightmare. Imagine not being able to get access to YOUR money. I suppose the financially clued up people would have seen this coming months ago & acted as necessary.

Trouble is once you deposit money in a bank it is no longer your money. All you own is some bank IOUs. Lesson. Only ever put money into a bank you can afford to lose.

What i dont get: The greeks are still able to send money from Greece to Greece. So why they dont send money to BTC-exchanges and use BTC to get a grip to their funds? I mean i here nothing about that. Obv Tsipras would immediately forbid BTC in Greece, nevertheless it would be a sign of peoples power. But they dont do it! Why?

Are the Greek banks still allowing direct debits to process e.g. Monthly mortgages, car finances, utility bills, phone bills.

https://www.btcgreece.com/ that looks like one. I think most in here are steeped in their lack of awareness of the wider world's lack of awareness. To the average Greek BTC is going to look like utter gobbledigook. It'll take more than a few bespectacled tech writers in far off countries to convince them to trust something completely unknown.

You bet those mofos are stacked to the max with bitcoin. Closing banks for a month makes sure that they end up with profit. They aren't there for us. They are also greedy private motherfuckers, just like we are.

Trouble is once you deposit money in a bank it is no longer your money. All you own is some bank IOUs. Lesson. Only ever put money into a bank you can afford to lose. This is a cause worthy of the attention of our resident scam-buster Dr. Stolfi. Putting money into bank accounts is risky, millions have been scammed already. And unlike pyramid schemes and the like they don't even promise much of a return on your risky investment.
