Thanks @kennyskitchen. Except of your personal opinion and the answers you provided against the most usual arguments against Bitcoin the links you mentioned for further research really helped me!

Lets try to make some changes, shall we? ;)

lol. "eliminate greed" -that's a good one.

I had a similarly whimsical conversation with an "anarchist communist", who said that there would be Utopia when everyone started sharing everything.

I told her that I'm not going to share, so there will be no such time where everyone shares, and that if she wants my resources she'll have to take them by force. Haven't heard from her since. I think her head exploded from cognitive dissonance.

Greed is not something that has to be "eliminated", it simply needs to stop being the primary trait which entire societies are built on.

First, anyone who refers to Utopia as something that should be wanted doesn't know where the word came from or what that book was about... It very much depicts a not-anarchist, not-communist, slave-holding, patriarchal, [fictional] country.

When someone refers to "everyone sharing" they generally mean within communities, not that your person necessarily meant that. Sharing globally makes no more sense than trading globally, and is wholly unsustainable (for physical goods at least). Inside of communities, the easiest, most peaceful, most life-promoting way of interacting is definitely cooperatively, not competitively.

As long as the majority of humans believe the illusion that they are separate from the rest of humanity & life on earth, systemic violence will be norm. The state, religion, war, debt-based banking, wasteful industrialization, classism, racism, and so much more are all based on this utterly immature (and scientifically false) belief system.

Why do you believe societies are built on greed?

The entirety of Euro-American society is based on greed, getting more for self at the cost of all others, having power over others, being well-known... All things which are actually negative for the human psyche, promote violence, and slow the development of the species.

Why do you believe that?

I observe it

Americans give more to charity than any other society. How is that greed?
