Re: The Greek deal (4.00 / 4)
So Greece has in exchange for a bridge loan committed to, among other things, establishing what is in effect an e-currrency controlled by the Greek government and to provide a basic level of support to all citizens, possibly through said e-currency.

Did they actually get any money yet? As I see it what the agreement bought them was an end to the bank run. Whether the Eurogroup will cough up even a single cent is still to be seen.
