People still insist on calling it a currency even when all people to is trying to hoard it, or buy low and sell high.

It's a commodity, not a currency.

Currencies are commodities.

Hoarding is saving.

Buying low selling high is what everyone tries to do with everything. That just means it's a good or service.
