I think it's safe to refer to most cryptocurrency methodologies as "Bitcoin" when talking to the masses. Making a casual relationship between misunderstandings of technology and a given implementation of it doesn't make a truth.

No, it's not safe to reason general facts about a technology and have the masses interpret them / invest in a particular implementation.
