cryptocurrency

A digital medium of exchange. It uses cryptography for security, making it difficult to counterfeit. The idea of cryptocurrency comes from popular online games wherein you trade something for something, and emerges into new unit of cyber-currencies between public (miners) that mimic the value of precious metals. The first of its kind is bitcoin.

Peer-to-peer transactions can be done through cryptocurrency.

cryptocurrency

A bunch of first world kids have decided to draw themselves virtual "pokemon cards" using their overpriced GPU their mom had gifted them in 2010, as even using it like normal introverts - to play games, wasn't autistic enough for them. Some had exchanged it for hitman services and pizza adding 'real value' to it; Some have accumulated more than others, now they are all 'grown up' in their 20s, and their only value is their collection of poke.. I mean "cryptos", so they are promoting it like a real deal to be able to exchange it for something more than a pizza - real estate and a tesla - and be talking success stories.

In theory - decentralized currency, in practice - it's like that old comic about USB: xkcd.com/927 but even less validity and with a pinch of ponzi and criminality and "I'll make up my own money to have money for luls, oh wait, people actually believe it".

CRYPTO

A form of digital currency popularized by the notorious gang of the CRIPS. This currency was created in direct opposition and competition with the "BRYBTO" currency, which is obviously the digital currency of the gang BLOODS.

Cryptocurrency

You click the button and then you have an imaginary electronic thing that fluctuates in value based on what Elon Musk tweets.

Bitcoin is a cryptocurrency that can make me very rich or very broke depending upon Elon Musk's mood that particular day.

Craptown

Term used to describe something displeasing or otherwise horrible. Imagine, if you will, a town, named "Crap Town" and what sort of things you would find in said town. "Craptown" should only be used to describe inanimate objects; it is considered very degrading to describe a person as craptown.

There is no way I am letting that craptown X-box into my house!
