Moving from EUR to USD or to CHF does not make much of a difference. Western national banks don't allow for much fluctuation and if one of them starts printing, the others follow. Bitcoin is a currency that does not correlate with them, so from a diversification point of view, Bitcoin is the better choice for you than buying USD.

And people in cyprus are not trying to protect their spare change, its their whole savings. Would you put your life savings in bitcoin ?
