This all points towards people beginning to use BTC. Are they too paranoid or dumb to make the change though? It's terrible what's happening in Greece but this problem just would not happen with BTC.
The problems in Greece now are actually making me more & more confident that the future of money is BTC.
It may be 5 years, hell it may be 20 but the fiat system is destined to fail. I just hope I'm still alive to be able to take advantage of being a 2014 adopter, it might seem late to some but if we go to the moon then it's early enough

World stock markets tumble as Greece crisis deepens
“The Greek butterfly looks set to cause a tornado in financial markets,” said Michael Hewson, chief markets analyst at CMC Markets UK. “In the process we could well also find out if this event turns out to be the equivalent of the butterfly flapping its wings in New Mexico, going on to cause a hurricane in China.”

The problem here is main driven by insecurity and uncertainty. When there is no direction on where these are heading generally investors will reduce or even withdraw completely their holdings in investment funds and place it somewhere they feel safe. There are so many things that could not be answered like will the process of exit be smooth, how it can be done, the impacts, i don't think all these have been completely thought of.

As far as the Greek situation goes, anything that involves capital controls is good for bitcoin, because bitcoin makes capital controls a thing of the past.
Be careful what you wish for...and where and when. Capital controls also have the potential to make Bitcoin a very significant target of both strategic and tactical importance.

Yes it's 6 more months of pretending to try to reach a consensus. I think Syriza may be waiting for other european countries for the elections and hope that similar parties get elected to make pressure to the Troika from outside Greece.
