I'm collecting a list of terms and words which have been created by crypto coin community and which are used exclusively.
I mean words like satoshi, hodling or altcoin.
Are there some more?

- shitcoin
- clone coin
- mining farm
- g0x'ed
- blockchain
- masternode
- instantX
- darksend
- 51% attack
- Ninja launch
- Ninja mine
- Brain wallet

- bulltard
- beartrolls
- hopium

How about Shitcoin. I don't know if you want definitions too, but my favorite definition for Shitcoin is "Any altcoin that I do not own."

Thanks, shitcoin is a good one. Don't know if it is used exclusively for crypto coins but it's an often used term. I don't need definitions.

We are talking general terms here, not about your shitcoins feature names

I think you should  visit a doctor. Just to talk a little. It helps.

Your butthurt is quite evident. Dont get mad if somebody says your Darkcoin/OtohCoin/Dash is a shitcoin

"Stealthmine" is sometimes used instead of the more popular "ninjamine". Then you also have technical words such as "automated transactions" and "arbitrary messaging" which aren't necessarily exclusive to cryptos but take on a different meaning when used in relation to cryptos.

You'll also find a few more in this thread:

It's a bit outdated though (e.g. "hodl" wasn't in use at the time and "goxxed" had a far less strong meaning than it does today). References to more recent terms pop up later on in the thread.

Your obssesions don't belong here. Please stay on topic. 

-bulltard
-beartrolls
-hopium

Thanks so far! I updated the list in the first post.

Okay, there are more words than I thought. I think I need some definitions yet  ;D

What do the following terms mean?

- Ninja launch
- Ninja mine
- Stealthmine
- bulltard
- beartrolls
- hopium

Thanks for pointing me to the thread. That is excatly what I looked for before I opened this thread but the search did not show me it.

I can't believe we are forgetting a favourite of bulls everywhere on the forum. HODL

I honestly have no idea who originally mispelled hold but whomever did certainly influenced the crypto masses.
Interesting thread though, it's sort of silly to see the made up words the crypto ecosystem uses.

You guys forgot the most important word (and outcome for most of the coins) out there.

FAIL

;D

Well OP did mention "hodling".

Also, you're a hero member and you haven't seen this thread (http://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=375643)?

It's a pretty epic read. The OP was a failed day trader who was drunk at the time. Variations of the same theme include "sodl" and "codl" (as in "if you hodl store them codl!").


Although I agree it's used a lot to describe most altcoins out there, that's not really exclusive to cryptocurrencies.

Well, for the past 1.5 years marketcap is shrinked about 4 times and we have hundreds of new coins in it. Lately a lot more started to launch too. While I believe in future of cryptocurrencies we should agree that situation is not looking very good at the moment.

Agreed, although the rate of new coins has actually slowed down (http://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=808586). It reached a peak in mid 2014 and has been declining since then.

I posted an earlier thread about the declining quality of altcoins here:

http://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=741706

My actual opinion on the subject has changed a bit since then. I find that the average quality has dropped but there are still a few innovative and non-scammy ones out there which have potential. Problem is, the sheer number of scams and shitcoins have made searching for these all the more dangerous.

Hopefully this bear market will end soon and coins which bring something new to the table will be rewarded rather than pushed down along with Bitcoin and the rest of the crypto markets.

The real problem which most (probably 95%+) of the coins have is that their developers/teams (if they have one) are not working hard on adoption. Currently we have many coins with fancy features, but this is not helping them at all. While developing cryptocurrencies is a race in technology, which in future will improve them, it is the adoption which must be considered as the greatest benefit of them all.

Read the first post and you see that I already mentioned hodl(ing) there.

By the way, the origin of hodl comes from this post

You should too and keep your shitcoin out of this thread

- fork / spork

( www.dashpay.io/spork )

Fail is not a specific crypto coin term  :D


Fork is an often used in development. Not just used for crypto projects.
