The root of the word "crypto" goes all the way in history as "to hide".

Monero has since many years been the only option worthy of truly being called a cryptocurrency. Doesn't even make sense to use anything where anyone can see all the value in your private wallet and where you are spending them.

The rest should really be designated as "virtual coins" or just call them "casino coins" because that is their use case.

They are not even coins. Coins do not get a pseudonym of their users attached for ever.
