Crypto Glossary — What does “To the moon” mean?

To the moon” is a phrase often heard in the crypto community and it means that the price of a particular cryptocurrency is rising off the charts. Meanwhile, the word, “moon”, can also be used solely as a verb (mooning) to describe the upward trend of a cryptocurrency. For example, Dogecoin (DOGE) went to the moon, gaining over 90% from around $8.1 billion to $15.9 billion at one point, after Elon Musk, the richest person in the world, took over Twitter, according to The Morning Cup, Poloniex’s weekly newsletter.
