No, crypto is crypto-anarchy does mean cryptography:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crypto-anarchism https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crypto-anarchism
'The "crypto" in crypto-anarchism should not be confused with the use of the prefix "crypto-" to indicate an ideology or system with an intentionally concealed or obfuscated "true nature". For example, some would use the term "crypto-fascist" to describe an individual or organization that holds fascist views and subscribes to fascist doctrine but conceals their agenda so long as these doctrines remain socially unacceptable.'
The crypto in crypto-anarchism is intended to signal a link with cryptography.
