Given that the Greek government didn't simply close the country, pretty well.
- glimmung 13y agoI'm not quite sure how one "closes" a country, but they have abdicated responsibility for many of the core functions of government, and to the individual citizens who are affected I'm sure the government seems "closed", if not the country [1]. Details and semantics aside, my point was that the security that governments allegedly bring to currency, and which Bitcoin allegedly lacks, is often much less concrete than we would wish.
