It's not counterfeiting because they're not passing it off as US currency. It's using a fictitious financial instrument, which is more when you're pretending it has value, as opposed to pretending it's something that has value.
I think the distinction really only matters legally or if someone has specifically said they're being technical. :)
So like crypto?
