About as correct as using "anal" for shortening "analysis".

(Apologies for the snark.)

I don't see how this is a good anal (shortened form of analogy) as I've never once heard or seen people use that as a short form. If it became widely used and accepted then sure, it would be just as correct.

"Crypto" as a term is widely used now to mean both cryptography and cryptocurrency.
