There are some new investors who do not understand the difference between Bitcoin and crypto, they understand Bitcoin as cryptocurrency. It is absolutely not right to start investing with such a misconception because all the coins created in the crypto world, except Bitcoin, are called Altcoins, or meme / shit coins, but not all Altcoins have been successful. Bitcoin is the first to be recognized as the only digital currency in the crypto world. Bitcoin is the only recognized secure currency that works through its own digital blockchain. People currently call bitcoin digital gold because its supply is limited, its price increases gradually and it plays a huge role in protecting against inflation, so it is called digital gold. Bitcoin is the only successful popular cryptocurrency that was created by one or more people in 2009 by Satoshi Nakamoto.
Bitcoin is a digital asset that can bring success through long-term investment. But it is very important to adopt some strategies to make long-term management successful. In addition to investing in Bitcoin, we need an emergency fund for three months because we do not know anything about unknown dangers, so we need to have an emergency fund for the long term. Patience is very important to achieve success in long-term investing.
I don’t understand how you people are seeing this and the conception of the idea that bitcoin is different from crypto. It’s like saying humans who are wealthy are no longer humans but wealthy humans. Bitcoin is a Cryptocurrency but it’s the first and the best performing of cryptos, you can’t because of the new tokens that are being classified as cryptos now say it is no longer a Cryptocurrency. All other coins have been classified into Altcoins, Shitcoins and memecoins but bitcoin is bitcoin.
Classification just simplifies things, it makes it easier to differentiate between coins just like how it is for humans and other things that requires clarification, there are wealthy people, rich people, normal people and poor people.
I don't know what you are trying to clear here because this exact discussion has been said over and over again which is the why you should call bitcoin crypto and be specific about the name because shitcoins do not have the same potential as bitcoin.
However, your example is as vague as the word crypto because you using human as an example, which does not prove what you are trying to back up. We have a lot of rich people , poor people and middle class people. So if you just say poor people or rich people, you are not talking to any rich man specifically. Can you just come out from your house and call your neighbor human without mentioning his name and expect him to answer you. But bitcoin is one and only which is the reason we shouldn't use vague language to discribe it because it will be misleading.
Another example is gold. Why wouldn't people say jewelry but they will always be specific with the word gold. So why should bitcoin be called crypto as if it's the same with all shitcoins that is a duplicate of bitcoin and was created for personal interest and selfish reasons.
