Again, Bitcoin is a cryptocurrency if you like it the most that's fine but it's still a cryptocurrency.

It's actually not. They are different things.

No they aren't, Bitcoin is a cryptographic currency.

Sure, Bitcoin is literally a cryptocurrency. It's the first. But "crypto" has colloquial meaning. "Crypto" is not Bitcoin, and Bitcoin is not "crypto".

Satoshi himself crafted the word. Monero very much is in line with its meaning. Even more so than Bitcoin.

But you are correct. 99.999% of all "cryptocurrencies" are neither crypto nor currency.
