Well it's not totally worthless yet. With regards to Greece, they only took 50%. That means you still had 1/2 the money you invested.

And no one will buy new debt. The EU bank had to buy it's own bonds last week.

Action- reaction. We buy your bonds and lose 50% now no one buys them except the central bank. So much for running to bonds for a safe haven.

And the beat keeps going. Will the ECB step in and buy these bonds against their stated mandate or watch rates go higher and higher?

The world economy may come back, in fact I'm certain of it. The Euro as it is currently constituted probably not. Too much dead weight.
