Slang is never plural (it's not "Slangs").

You're missing a big one - HODL! Hold on for dear life and the origin of the word "Hodl" should be in your list.

Finally, a lot of what you're calling slang is actually just standard investment terminology. Like "fill or kill". Maybe remove those items or call them "investment terms" as their own section.

A very good read with lots of useful information including trading lingo. Highly recommended.
I think it's not a slang, more like normal cryptocurrency and financial terminology and concepts.

It would be interesting to see how the industry will evolve over time and what slangs/terms will be used in the future. It's easy to imagine something like Collateralized Debt Obligations, Exchange Traded Funds, etc.

Good article, main crypto terms are explained here very well. But as HabBear said, crypto slang isn't appropriate word. I think you should call it terminology.
By the way, here is probably the best list of crypto terms:
