Recently I've started thinking that the word "cryptocurrency" does a pretty poor job at describing what it's all about. The "crypto" part does not describe the main properties - decentralization and openness, cryptography is simply a tool for achieving them, and doesn't necessarily bring those properties. "Currency" is a pretty narrow economic term, which refers to money in active circulation, but in our case we have digital units that can have many use cases and most notably they allow building applications on top of them. The "currency" part is also used by opponents to claim that they are in fact inherently worthless by pointing out their high volatility and lack of scalability - two factors that indeed make them almost unusable for daily transactions for average user at the moment.
Thoughts?
Well for me , I dont think the term "cryptocurrency" needed to be change anymore. It has been known by many investors as that, and they already adopted that kind of terminology so I dont see any point in changing it base on its origin meaning. Cryptocurrency are already known as the world wide online currency, means ita the present why not just supoort it. So that it could bring us economy to improve.
