Altcoin

What crypto means by it

Any cryptocurrency that is not bitcoin. The word stretches from major networks to a token created that morning, which is precisely why it tells you nothing about quality.

What you already know this as

Saying 'not the market leader'. It describes a position in a market, not whether the thing is any good.
