Bactually

blending; adverb somewhat abverbial, yet ambiguous
A blending of the phrase "But actually," which is typically used in contexts to comically indicate honesty in a preceding jestful comment.
 
The coiner probably created the word out of a need for a more compact expression of the concept.
Etymology : A blending of "but" and "actually"
