Sometimes it seems like crypto has it’s very own language.  You can use our Crypto Glossary to look up unfamiliar terms and get up to speed on common crypto lingo.

If you think our glossary is missing something, send us a message!

airdrop – when​ ​a​ ​blockchain project distribute​s ​free​ ​tokens or​ ​coins ​to​ ​the​ crypto ​community.

altcoin – alternative cryptocurrency coins, aka ‘coin’; cryptocurrency coins other than Bitcoin which operate on their own blockchain.

ATH – all time high.  ATH is the highest price a coin or token has ever reached.

bearish – believing that a coin or token price will drop.

block – files that permanently record cryptocurrency transaction data. Blocks can be thought of as the individual pages of a recordbook. Blocks are organized into a linear sequence over time which is referred to as the blockchain.

blockchain – a public ledger or database of all cryptocurrency transactions. The blockchain uses hashing to continuously complete blocks of information that chain to form an immutable (unchangeable) ledger.

BTFD – buy the f’ing dip. BTFD is used as a reminder to crypto traders to buy when the price of a token or coin is low, or in the dip.

bullish – believing that a coin or token price will go up.
