A causa del controllo dei capitali e dell'impossibilità di spostare agevolmente il prOprio denaro, presto in GRECIA potrebbero essere installati almeno 1000 ATM Bitcoin.
L'idea sarebbe quella di installare sul tutto il territorio nazionale non meno di 1000 ATM per coprire le esigenze sempre piu' esasperate della popolazione ellenica. L'operazione potrebbe avvenire con l'ausilio della compania CUBITI.
Thanos Marinos, il fondatore di BTCGreece, ha detto alla CNBC, che se tutto procederà secondo i piani entro ottobre 2015 verrano aperti i primi Sportelli Bitcoin in tutto il paese.

Bitcoin ATMs could spring up across Greece as soon as October as citizens and businesses become increasingly desperate to move their money despite capital controls. BTCGreece, which bills itself as the country's first bitcoin exchange, plans to eventually install 1,000 ATMs nationwide, in partnership with European bitcoin platform, Cubits.

Thanos Marinos, the founder of BTCGreece, told CNBC on Wednesday that a soft launch was on the cards for October.
"It is part of my vision to create a block chain ecosystem in Greece," he told CNBC. "If all goes as expected with no major issues we will launch first ATMs October 2015."
The digital currency has been touted as one way to to circumvent Greek capital controls. These have been in place since June and limit domestic investors to withdrawing no more than 60 euros ($66) per day from Greek banks, making life extremely tough for companies that need to pay or receive bills. Greek individuals and businesses are also forbidden from moving money to bank accounts abroad.
