With debt levels so high and confidence in government so low, the bond market has come a knocking and is intimidating the heck out of European governments. First, the bond market knocks on Iceland’s door (see Michael Lewis' Vanity Fair article and his book Boomerang ), then Ireland's, then Greece's and now Italy's. Who’s next?

But IMO it’ll take a “big bang” multi-party effort rather than an incremental innovation, so it’ll favor large organizations (big companies and/or governments) rather than startups. Government fiat. Greece) might attempt a half-crazy experiment like this.
