However, we know here that the intention was to portray a woman interested in crypto-currency so we're all going to place nice AREN'T WE.

Welcome.

Women only know how to spend BTC Grin


The "playing nice" part didnt last long, but in all honesty I dont see why anyone should be nice just because someone else is a certain gender.
I ddont think its a good idea to be interested in something just because few do. Care for BTC or dont, but dont pretent to be on rightous joutney to bringt bitcoin to woman.

I'm here so I might be an example to other women. Women and most people in general will venture into new places when they don't feel threatened. Personally, I believe that being nice is just good human behavior and treatment deserved equally regardless of gender Smiley

My intention in coming out is to let other women know that this is an interesting and worthwhile place to be. "Righteous journey"? We will all have our own opinions. While I don't agree, thanks for sharing yours.

Where did you get info that fewer than 1% of people involved in cryptocurrency are women? I think there are much more of them


Information posted on the website of the Texas Bitcoin Conference.

That was what I meant with beeing nice regardless of gender.

See, I would think that you dont have to "come out" as a woman at all. Your gender or anyones gender here should not be a matter as it has no relevance to bitcoin. Or thats how I think it should be. Maybe my "rightous journey" wasnt nice, Im sorry if it was offensive to you.
In my personal opinion you are not helping woman, but hindering woman as you specifilly state woman as different from the majority of the people interessted in bitcoins. But -again- gender is not important here, or it should not be.

Im not really here, its just your imagination.

Not necessary, I saw a topic like this one in discussions sometime ago and a good average of the posters were women but not extremely active in the forum , I guess women don't like talking eeeh  Grin

You are absolutely right - gender should not be an issue at all. But, there are reasons why women are not involved in cryptocurrency. I believe some of it has to do with fear and uncertainty and lack of education that comes from non-participation. Can we explore those and overcome them. Then, I can retreat behind a gender-neutral pseudonym and all will be right with the world.
