Shitcoin is any cryptocurrency that is disliked by the person talking about it. It could be any coin that is not bitcoin, or a coin that lacks any new or advanced technology, or a coin that has become worthless after launch. Shitcoins are often identified by a specific pattern that they follow. First, the coin launches to some interest, but the price remains relatively level. Then, the price increases exponentially over a short period of time as investors pour in. This is followed by a nosedive, as investors dump their coins to capitalize on short-term gains
