Female Bitcoin Investor Study by Grayscale

[RooseveltOah]

The joint study — commissioned by Grayscale and conducted by financial market research firm Q8 research — shows that women represent a significant market for Bitcoin as investors.

63% of female investors appreciate the ability to invest in fractional amounts of Bitcoin (compared to buying a whole coin or a full share of a stock), vs. 56% of male investors.
60% of female investors like the liquidity offered by direct Bitcoin investments, vs. 56% of male investors.
More female investors indicated that they lack familiarity with Bitcoin (76% female vs. 52% male investors), but an overwhelming majority of female investors (93%) noted that they could be more open to the asset class if they had more educational resources available to them.

Got several questions on the forum about women in Bitcoin, this should provide a better answer.

I think this is a duplicate post from here:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5210183.0

And is already been discussed. Just for me, it doesn't make any sense. First, educational material are almost touches away. They could just type it in Google, and start learning from there. Those for me are just excuses, and them telling they'd be willing to invest on Bitcoin is either, (1) just wants to show off, (2) doesn't want to be judged as not giving attention to long-term investments, or (3) doesn't really know what they're talking about.

If there were more women in the industry, the industry would be completely different.

Agree.

I think women today are more business-minded than before since most of them are raised with traditional ways of living. I guess exposure to different kinds of culture empowered them to be more successful. Most of the women I know who are investing in crypto are just lurkers here and there without others knowing that they hold some crypto on their sleeves.

investment among women, if we see it today growing and on the other hand they have factors that make themselves better investors, because when making investments they only take minimal investment and are more careful in using their finances, not like men like to make high-risk investments.

Women looks smart than men because they can manage many time for trading and investing with bitcoin, many time women could get much profit than men because they look most careful when trade with altcoin or bitcoin, how smart when selling some product at the market will make women look most interested for trading.

And are you saying this because you are a female?
Yes, I have to agree with it anyhow that womens make wise selection of profits and also they trade accordingly.
Womens can make great profits from the markets only because they are smarter than mens.

A recent study reveals that women make almost 75% of World’s purchasing decisions. We can say that one of the major factor behind crypto’s worldwide adoption is its stronger and secure position among the women of whole world. Women are far better than men in any field as they have applied economics in their daily life works, they are more expert in it and its dealing. In this way they show great interest in trading.

Yes, I have to agree with you. Females might not take excess risk to make profits as they might not even have that greedy nature as the males. Male takes a lot of risk in any investment he performs and it might even give him excess profits but the fear of loss remains constant. Females are wise investors. They have the guts but they never use it without any requisite.

Females can actually invest into the assets but they would take maximum care about their investments by making minimum investments, speculating their investments constantly, etc. Females have the ability to function an entire house and this is really a great ability of their's which might even make them financially even more better than male.

When I tried to access the full report because of how manipulative such data can be, but the website did not let me through for some reason. This "research" could be conducted unprofessionally with a small sample of respondents, pushy questions and other things like that. This is why I would not assess it by taking for granted that it's accurate. As for what's been said here about women being more cautious, I don't think it's related to gender at all. Perhaps, people who take care of children or people who manage households are the ones that are more cautious, and it so happens that the majority of them are women. That, again, brings us to the question about the way this research has been conducted.

That's quite an interesting market research made by Grayscale. I am overwhelmed to see the progress of females over the bitcoin or the cryptocurrency investments. Usually, it is said that the female brain can work more faster as compared to the male brain and hence they might also find better source of investment with better techniques which would gain them immense benefits.

At the current stage, there are pretty less percentage of female investors into the industry but I am sure that the number might surely rise in the coming future. Both male and females are compared equally and hence both should be free to make their investments and gain profits accordingly.

It's generally interesting researching. I would like to point out the problem of the lack of educational resources. This problem applies to both women and men!

[jtraverso]

It was a surprise to me to see such a large percentage of women investing in crypto 

[MiltonMcClary]

I'd love to know the age makeup of women versus men, last I remembered the majority of male users were in their late twenties to mid thirties.

I wonder if this carries on over to women and if not then why?

It's an arguable statement. But if we read about mastering biology at https://studyhippo.com/mastering-biology-chapter-9/ we can find a lot of facts about our society. Anyway, I don't have a clear answer.
