The cryptocurrency lexicon, terms and phrases 📚

Find here the details on the particular expressions used in cryptocurrencies.


The field of crypto-currencies has initially aroused interest among a very small community of developers, cryptographers and many other groups who find in crypto-currencies values essential to their activities, such as anonymity, security or decentralized governance.

We have therefore prepared a lifeline for those who wish to enrich their vocabulary of the cryptosphere.
