I'm not a European, but I do know a little history. There was this
funky little guy named Caligula who once had a little money flow
problem. He resolved (in part) his problem by naming many of the rich
older citizens of Rome as his relatives, then had them commit suicide
(or outright executed them) so that he could inherit their money. Such
a friendly thing to do... but desperate times call for desperate
measures.

I also believe that bitcoin could play a pretty major role if
everything goes to hell.
