Why aren't there more women in Bitcoin?

[12tribes]

Many factors are responsible. this includes, knowledge of bitcoin, willingness to take risk, lack of mentor and many others.

Take a look around the crypto community, both in meatspace and online, and it would be fair to say that the majority of participants are male. This is borne out in a recent survey of 2,000 Americans which shed light on the makeup of the bitcoin space, highlighting a stark gender divide. In fact Google Analytics data estimates less than 4% of bitcoin users to be female. The question is, why?

I think there is much men here than women because for me men are much exploring the internet than women. They are much curious than women amd they are the persons that seeking and discovering for a new things. And also men are risk taker and doesnt afraid to lost something.

I notice the same thing recently. Unfortunately there are less women in crypto currency world. Actually if we look at any investing like stock exchange, forex etc there are always less female. I think the reason is that they are less likely to take risk.

Maybe because the man or male they have more knowlegde in technology they are more active in finding new thru enternet.And more on female they are more busy in household and they rest or sleep in thier free time while the boys thier relaxing way is to play with thier gadget for online gaming  or like read news or stories about bitcoin.How they can fine extra income for thier family.

i believe part of the reason could be that men tend to be more aggressive and women tend to be suppressed. there is also the notion that tech in general is a man's field and also safe spaces for women in the blockchain world have not been created. also there needs to be more role models so that other women can aspire to be like them.

Perhaps, most women are engage in other things. If your figures on the ratio between male and female who is into cryptocurrency. That proves that men are more aware of the benefits of bitcoin than women. That is a very big disparity since women dominates the worlds entire population. Or maybe, women are just letting the bitcoin job with their male partner because they are busy in their family task.

if I think as a woman, because there is too much work to be done every day, so there's no time to work on bitcoin, because to do this bitcoin we need time and focus, so most likely afraid the job is neglected

It's fair to say in this era , the discrimination between men and women decreased to it's lowest value. Women are participating in every sector. I hope they will embrace and engage in crypto market in large quantity soon. I believe women do more day to day task than men. That why they get less time to surf this type of place. But I also admit I know few women , one of my sister already engaged with crypto world, she brought mining set up and got more knowledge than me. I am proud of her.

I think the exact same thing applies to engineering or IT courses.. Why there aren't many women in either of them is because technical stuff is too much of a hassle for them as they are more on the creative side.

In my own personal opinion, the reason why they are only few women who are interested to use bitcoin is because there only few women who is good in taking care of their money and knows how to invest. But actually gender role in bitcoin is not required as long you know how to use bitcoin and know how it works, you can use it to earn bitcoins.

It is because not all of the people knows bitcoin, maybe they know but they are not interested on it, it is either of that two. Also it doesn't matter if there are only few women who do bitcoin, we have different things that we wanted to do in life, and it is our choice on what we are going to do to earn a living or to pursue our dreams.

[malvinlee]

perhaps many women are not interested in bitcoin. Because, they do not understand what bitcoin really is. So, must there is some seminar.

[fredo123]

Perhaps woman are irritant to think deeply, making ideas like working with it esp. in bitcoin. and they are more focused on household chores. Traditional ways of living, Woman mostly spend time in the house and nourished the kids, While men are the bread winner of the family,

[labs0918]

Maybe because men is more agressive when in comes to bitcoin. They are aware in every sites that they know they will earn into this. Maybe one of the reason too is more men are interested in this and less of women's are not because this is not their field.

I think it depends on the personality of a person.. However, a majority of women prefer non-technical fields, so you are most probably right. My sister is a doctor, so I guess that counts as technical.

[valardohaeriz]

I think there are enough women in crypto, they just don't show up in data because they do things differently than men.
I know a woman that managed like 10 or so accounts of other women in crypto. So naturally she would count as one person instead of 10.

If it isn't their expertise, they would delegate as compared to men who will just jump right in solo.

[White32]

Because women is more than have everyday tasks than men. Specially when the women are working then they have a lot of work when they got home at the same time taking care of the children so they have no time to set infront of the screen working with bitcoin. Aside from that men are more agressive when it comes to new challenges and opportunity.

Statistically speaking, ther are more men than women in the field of Information, Communication and Technology (ICT). My professor in college told us that this is because more men are engage in STEM subjects while more women are on the HUMSS. But he also told us that here in a modern day society, gender roles and expectations are deviated in order to survive.

[Akitot]

I believed most woman are giving their times to their husband's and kids, some lady are busy on having party,  some girls want to Fuchs on their study and career, some doesn't have any bit idea or knowledge on bitcoin.... This are some major factors why the other gender are not here...

[minldem]

I think there are closed groups in the forums and they are filled up with men. Women can feel to be excluded from these kind of environments. Women can be involved more by openning these subjects to the discussion with them.

[QuestionAuthority]

There’s lots of women sitting at computers using bitcoin right now.

 Here’s one:

As mentioned in one of the quote, there are lot of women getting into bitcoin as well into other cryptocurrency usage. Women might find it difficult to learn, but if they get interested towards it automatically they'll innovate more through the same platform making large scale contributions.
