So you're saying the price needs to fall to get rid of "short term greedy people" because if they remain then they may cause prices to fall?
Do you see how, perhaps, this "problem" fixes itself?
What I am saying is that miners that are in the Bitcoin Economy today shouldn't be able to make any easy money, they don't add anything good for Bitcoin long term. We need miners that want to build up the infrastructure and believes in Bitcoin in the long term. I had one solution of the problem, and it makes common sense. Maybe you have others? I know that this issue is getting smaller for every day, because inflation is a bit less for every day, but we have at least over a year left of it.
Fastandfurious, you're still not getting the point. If all the greedy miners went and bought their wares because they're greedy and they want to make easy money, but the difficulty increases and they make fewer coins, then they sell as much as they can to make their money back, bringing down the price per BTC, eventually, they are no longer making money and stop mining, which makes the miners that remain more profitable.
Nothing like built in systems of checks and balances... simple and elegant.
