Why Do We Really Need Women in Blockchain?

In a recent podcast, the subject of increasing participation levels of women in blockchain came up, a goal for which I expressed enthusiastic support. However, I received some comments pushing back against this idea. It seems as though not everyone is completely sold on the idea of explicitly targeting the female demographic for inclusion into the cryptoverse. As such, I might as well explain more thoroughly why I think we need women in blockchain.

I don't think blockchain tech is only for specific gender than why we specially tag this with any gender? This is very confusing article from my point of view. It is against the nature of blockchain which allows everyone to use this without any restriction and limit.

Just take a look at the comments in this budget proposal, which has the goal to promote Dash with focusing on women as consumers and potential Dash users : https://www.dashcentral.org/p/women_in_dash

This indicates to me that Dash (and other cryptoprojects, as the women-unfriendly sentiment found in those comments are pretty much echoed throughout the cryptoscene) is currently not gender neutral and
that Dash is missing out on reaching a very large demographic targetgroup.  
 
In any advertising / marketing campaign its pretty normal to focus on a specific gender or specific age group in order to reach a specified target population, even in election voting campaigns that is the case.
These advertising / marketing campaigns are not seen as starting some kind of new feminist wave or advancing certain age groups, they are just ment to reach their intended target group more effectively and are regnoniced as such.

Maybe its time that Dash does the same, in order to increase its number of users and increase its usage.

Women, just do it. I cannot see any barrier for you. Perhaps they are simply not as greedy as men? Come on, women, get as greedy as them, that I can treat you equal and get your money too.

Its good that this project recognizes women's immense potential to influence the cryptoverse and there is no denying that thewy fulfill as equal with men in our society. Imho.

The easiest way to generate new users is to offer a great deal of utility. People should use Dash because they want and need it.

The easiest way to generate new users is to offer a great deal of utility. People should use Dash because they want and need it.

At some point utility needs to be marketed and advertised in order to reach new users. A product can have all the utility of the world, but if that world is unaware (and remains unaware) of this utility then that product will never reach mainstream adoption.
Dash will have a product once Dash Evolution comes out, after which some thought should really be put into the marketing / advertising aspect : who are our target groups ? what is our overall marketing strategy ? How do we sell Dash to non-tech users ?
How do we sell Dash to women ? How do we sell Dash to certain age groups ? How do we keep Dash connected to tech-interested men ? All these aspects require different marketing / advertising strategies.  

Take for example HTC, a mobile phone builder who became a market leader when it designed one of the first Android smartphones adding refinement to Google's new mobile operating system back in those early days.
Its current products still possess the utility aspect, but due to a lack of consistent marketing / advertising HTC descended pretty much to non-existence.

Dash Core’s Bradley Zastrow: Crypto criticism fair in many cases

Seems like a good entry point now that price is low. This is just a hiccup..once market stabilizes price correction will occur. Just my opinion, not to be taken as financial advice.

Yes, Dash is always the silent killer in the market because even though many people are not hearing much news about the Dash but this coin generating huge volumes due to its popularity kept increasing. It will have more demand in the coming days but we need to wait until the market starts recovering.

While 2018 was a year characterized by many as the year of one of the harshest bear markets for cryptocurrency to date, the Dash network experienced record growth over the course of the year in developments and adoption. Dash took over as arguably the most used cryptocurrency for payments and retail use, with long-term transaction data backing this up, as well as thousands of merchants added and dozens of new integrations. By every metric other than market capitalization and price, 2018 was a resounding success for Dash.
