Fucking Shitcoin is an actual meme on KYM Though the exact first use of the term “shitcoin” to describe altcoins online is unknown, the slang term appears as early as 2011 in a blog post from the site Herbert R. Sim[1] depicting a fictional “Blade of Bitcoin” as the “slayer of shitcoins” (seen below). The site also includes a link to Investopedia’s[2] definition of the term from that same timeframe, which is described as “… a cryptocurrency with little to no value or a digital currency that has no immediate, discernible purpose.”
