How can I become eligible for a Greek citizenship on a “temporary” residency status?

If I apply for a digital nomad visa and keep renewing it, will I eventually be eligible for citizenship in Greece? If not, what other options that can lead to citizenship would be best for a freelancer?

Among the main prerequisites required in order to be able to apply for Greek citizenship besides the legal and permanent stay in the country for 7 years is to keep a residence permit title of specific categories, such as: a) long-term residence permit or second generation one, b) spouses of Greek or EU citizens, or a parent of an underage Greek citizen, c) Golden Visa as per Art. 20B and 16 A&C provisions of Law 4251/2014 etc. Digital Nomad Visa is not included in the said titles.
