New Crypto Lingo You Should Know in 2025

The crypto world evolves fast — and so does its language. If you’re feeling lost in the latest Telegram or X (Twitter) threads, here’s a quick crash course in fresh crypto slang:

1. Rugpull – The ultimate betrayal. It’s when a project’s developers suddenly abandon a project and run off with investor funds. If it looks too good to be true, it probably is.

2. Exit Liquidity – When someone buys into a token just in time to help whales sell theirs. Congrats, you’re their exit plan.

3. WAGMI (We’re All Gonna Make It) – The hopeful war cry of the crypto community. Used unironically… until the charts turn red.

4. NGMI (Not Gonna Make It) – The opposite of WAGMI. Often used to mock poor investment choices or panic sellers.

5. Bagholder – Someone still holding a coin that’s lost 90% of its value. They’ll “HODL”… forever.

6. DeFi Degens – Risk-hungry traders diving headfirst into high-APY farms and obscure tokens. High reward, high chaos.

7. Ape In – To buy into a token without doing research. Sometimes genius. Often a disaster.

New slang drops faster than new tokens — stay updated or risk sounding NGMI! $BTC
