Savings are not bad at all. Moreover, Grignon's coins don't decay to zero, but to the perpetual coin value. So speculation is not so easy.
lol inflation.

What's wrong with speculation? Shouldn't people be able to choose when they want to buy/sell bitcoins?

1. No. Nothing is greed-proof. Ever.
2. Not really. The best way I can think of is to manipulate the market by creating a bunch of variance and causing investor confidence to drop, and thus a drop in the price, but doing something like that could hardly be called profitable, as there would also be a good chance of the market manipulator losing a good deal of money trying to do that.
And in response to your 2nd post, the coins don't decay. Why is having some savings a bad thing anyway?

Well, Paul Grignon's system seems to prevent users from accumulating coins, as they 'decay' over time. So greedy users are forced to accumulate goods, but not money. I was wondering if Bitcoin supports this.

Hi,
I'm new to the forum. I've got a couple of questions.
1.- Is Bitcoin greed-proof?
2.- If not, can a greedy user make other Bitcoin users poorer by just using Bitcoin in a perverse way? (just as it's happening with fiat money)
Thank you.
