crypto-geek 

One who hides "nerdy" interests while maintaing an outwardly "normal" appearance, esp. someone who one would not expect to pursue such interests, such as a jock. A crypto-geek would usually be embarassed if these interests were revealed to his or her main circle of associates.

I didn't realize John was a crypto-geek; who would have thought the captain of the football team plays Dungeons and Dragons?

Crypto Addiction

A high-tech term for hardcore gamblers or speculators who have made trading in digital currencies their god—some common symptoms are Trump-like lying, getting into massive debt, and insomnia.

Luxury rehabs are doing brisk business treating crypto addiction patients, by changing them exorbitantly—common treatments involve yoga, acupuncture, massage, and medication.

Crypto-Staple 

When someone hands you a large stack of paperwork to be copied, and doesn't tell you that there's stapled packets within the larger framework of unstapled paperwork, this is crypto-stapling. This, of course, causes the feeder to jam, make all sorts of loud noises, and make you look like a moron.

Damn it! Chuck gave me all these TPS reports, but there was a crypto-staple in there and it jammed the copier!

crypto friend 

The friend who got you in to crypto, who, even if you now have a lot of crypto, he has what feels like exponentially more than you, and you follow his every advice.

My crypto friend AND his crypto friend got out of Ethereum this past week. For good. So I'm entirely over in bitcoin now with a few buckets like Cardano and Filecoin.
