In your opinion, what should we call cryptocurrencies that aren’t Bitcoin? (inb4 shitcoin)
In my own writing, I use “crypto-offspring”. It denotes that BTC was the origin of this phenomenon while remaining neutral on any other protocol or token.
I used to use “altcoin” but even that seems to elevate too many of the scam projects, while leaving objectively interesting and valuable projects like Monero in the same category.
Andreas Antonopoulos uses “open blockchains” which I kind of like too, but it’s fairly broad
