Crypto means cryptography, stop using it to talk about cryptocurrency.
Yeah, that headline is very misleading. Crypto(graphy) is essential for the digital world to exist whereas the other stuff is a pyramid & money laundering scheme.
It's not "misleading," because the vast majority of people understand what the current colloquial use of crypto is.
Not the nerds on Lemmy.
