Analogy:

Scientific concept "greenhouse effect" becomes more "non-technical, friendly, appealing" phrase "global warming" becomes deliberately slogan-like completely meaningless "climate change".

Similarly, technical innovation "bitcoin" becomes slightly more sexy-sounding "blockchain" eventually becomes slogan-like and utterly meaningless "crypto".

You just compared one of the biggest scientific breakthroughs to one of the biggest hoaxes.

Crypto is a superior term because it includes coins like Monero that have been scientifically designed to be used as digital cash, which Bitcoin has proven itself inadequate as.

Kudos to Trump for putting you maxis in your place.
