I have heard people say a Bitcoin investor is greedy. Bitcoin investors always have plans on how they want to acquire Bitcoin, how long they want to invest, and at what price they want it to sell.
No Bitcoin investors is greedy rather they are too optimistic about the future price of Bitcoin, there are people who may project to hold it for 10 years or for above that price level but when the investment starts to yield massively you would see them not having that to hold back to what is with their initial agreement instead they wouldn't mind selling it before they get to the next bull market.

In my opinion, our excessive expectations and optimism about bitcoin price is also considered as greed or even investing in bitcoin is greed. If we weren't greedy and wanted to get rich, we wouldn't be willing to take the risk and choose bitcoin. Greed is in human nature, it is a part of being human, no one is without greed. But the important thing is that our greed does not harm or affect anyone's interests, it is harmless.

So there is no shame in someone saying I am greedy for investing in bitcoin or aiming too high, but it makes me believe that people who say I am greedy are just selfish and jealous of me .
I don't think that one can say that bitcoin investors are greedy, because they don't want to get rich quick but prefer to go the right way of investing which involves patience on a long term goal. Traders are the ones that are greedy because they want to make quick profit im a twinkle of an eye. Long-term investors might choose a price target to sell part of their bitcoin and I wouldn't call it greed because if that price is not achieved, they will keep hodling..
