5 Crypto Slang Terms You Need To Know (Part 3)
There I was again at 3 am lost in a sea of Reddit threads about CryptoCurrency. I am defining the top crypto slang so you don’t have to google it every time like I may or may not have to…
Here are the types of crypto slang part three!
AFI
AFI means “all fucking in”. This is commonly referred to when buying, selling, or trading cryptocurrency.
Example: Person one: Did you see BTC is up… again?!?
Person Two: Oh man I am AFI! ***runs to invest more in BTC.
OG
OG means “original gangster”. These are the people who were here early and earned respect.
Example: Satoshi Nakamoto is the OG of Bitcoin.
FOMO
FOMO stands for the fear of missing out. In the crypto world, this is what people say when they are afraid to miss out on their next big investment.
Example: I didn’t buy at the dip and I’m having so much FOMO right now.

Maxi
A maxi, short for maximalist, is someone will an extreme view of something and is very stubborn on their view.
Example: Bill we get it, we should invest in crypto. Stop being such a maximalist about it.
