makes perfect sense, probably the easiest resort to ease their debt crisis, problem is the public's awareness of BTC and their concern of financial safety too
Yeah I guess you have a point there... Bitcoins volatile market price really is killing Bitcoin in general. If it stays around this $230-$240 price range for more than 6 - 8 months or so we might see an increase in adoption due to a new found secured price in it... But I doubt that will happen anytime soon since there are so many issues Bitcoin has to solve.
there are more issues regarding Greece that need to be solved, being part of the EU makes it somewhat dependand of the euro, they can opt out, but having strong allies in trade makes life so much easier than trying to get out of the hole themselves. They might starting to adapt bitcoin as a side coin, to grow stronger and when the EU has helped them out of their personal crisis have a basis to step out of the whole thing.
Greece will not be the first country to take on bitcoin as their currency, it is still a country and has it's own identity, with their own pride, a global currency will take away part of that identity, a countries own currency is something that builds patriotism and defines a country for most people.
