Note
A plural that only some meanings of crypto can take. Counted, it names individual coins or tokens (smaller cryptos, several cryptos), while uncountable crypto covers the asset class as a whole (money flowing into crypto). The clipping for cryptography never pluralizes, so that sense never appears in this form. The other countable senses, a secret supporter or the clippings for cryptococcus and cryptosporidium, can take it too.
