There is new populistic Government in Italy.
Itay is going to dump Euro and it will cause huge turmoil in Europe. New parallel currency will be in circulation and Euro accounts might be closed for owners. That will cause surge in Bitcoin prices like in the case of Cypres in 2013.
I don't think that's ever going to happen. Italy dances to the tune of Berlusconi. He, in turn, a friend of Putin. All of them are interested in the collapse of the EU. Therefore, create and pay for such fakes. The mafia wants to take Italy again. If idiots vote for populists, so be it. They'll be the first to die. It's natural selection. A parallel currency is pure politics and no Economics.
