Why women are the minority in crypto land?

[Abiky]

It's yet the day where most users in crypto land are composed of males. Women are the minority, since most of them express little-to-no interest in crypto/Blockchain tech. I find this to be odd, considering that women are as interconnected as males in today's digital era. If they use a payment processor like PayPal, why won't they use crypto/Blockchain tech?

Thoughts?

Risk aversion.

Women are not prone to take huge risk, unlike us, who gambles almost all of our life. 

But in any case though, I saw women emerging in digital technologies in the last 4 years. So maybe the balance will tip a bit in the next coming years. Maybe they could held good positions in a blockchain related companies. So their decision making is the key.

I have to check the numbers, it says that 17%

Women have been slowly gaining dominance in the tech sector as women presently hold around 20% of jobs in the domain of technology. Interestingly, around 17.7% of startups in the field of tech have a female founder. On the other hand, the participation of women in blockchain technology has been considerably low.

And that article also noted 10 women in blockchain technology, and I must admit that I'm not familiar without them.

But I agree that crypto should not be exclusive for mens/boys only. We need diversification and we need our counterpart to join in the fun. It might some sort of intimidating though for women, that's why we haven't seen them in the ecosystem.

They are probably afraid to ride the crypto market volatility. Women are said to be more emotional than men.

Or maybe they just prefer other money-making opportunities like selling various stuffs online. I don't know about you but all (live) online sellers I see on social media are women

Do we need affirmative action in the field of cryptocurrency also? Being a female, I don't have an issue if 80% to 90% of the cryptocurrency users are male. Programming and coding are regarded as male bastions, and that may be the reason for the male dominance in this field. But as cryptocurrency become more popular, we will see more women entering the field. Right now, almost 99% of the big names in cryptocurrency are male - Vitalik Buterin, Roger Wer, Jihan Wu, Changpeng Zhao, Justin Sun and Calvin Ayre are examples.

I always tell stories with my wife and even talk about it all day but she is not really into it. I don't know why.
She want it basically for money but she don't want to go deep into knowing more about definition, use cases, or whatever the hell it's all about.
I guess it's just most women behavior/instincts or they have other things to think about. I am not a psychologist but that's what I experienced with so many years with her. She will listen to all my stories and even tell her opinions but had never tried to get deeper.
But when a game is included like NFT games today, she plays it thinking there will be money afterward.  I even tried inviting her to the forum but she still says no. She just tells me we are like aliens here with a different language.

They are not that tough to face risk and also Males are the dominant in terms of funding meaning we usually make money that's why we decide where to bring the funds.

and besides we are also the one will suffer if we make it wrongly.

there's no real data that shows how much percent of crypto users actually a female and if there's any, does that cover the entire world though? so can't really say that they are minority however, it's just same like other male dominated jobs because male more interested in it than female but I guess there's also many other reasons and factors as well.
but frankly speaking, very few people actually cares about gender in crypto spaces, so this kind of thing not gonna be a problem in the future, everyone, male or female are free to do whatever they want in crypto space.

[cryptoaddictchie]

Maybe because guys are more open for ideas and exploring some new tech out there? Im not against the women, there are lots of those who are into cryptocurrency and blockchain but lets admit that guys are more compared to them. Well thats show thats guys are literally interested on innovation than ladies.

If there is information or research about this kindly share guys. This topic is quite interesting to talk about.

[mindrust]

Women usually don't like promises. They want hard cash which is the US dollars.

They don't care if you own lots of crypto which may or may not worth a lot in the future.

Can you provide hard cash and buy nice stuff right away?

Code:

If (true){
    then you are a good boi. 
}else{
    they'll find someone who can
}

We actually don't know how much women we got in the cryptocurrency space but in general women don't work equally in the tech based and stock market investment they like to work fkr salary all the time no matter how good they are with skills or else they can just marry someone who is rich enough so they can become rich as well.

There's actually more women in crypto than you think.
But since this is mostly an "online" ecosystem, you don't know if it's a guy or a gall.

And they mostly want it to remain that way, due to anonimity.

Never knew of them either.
Either that crypto is too techy for them to understand. Same goes when I think of women that are into coding, only one I knew so far is Ada Lovelace, lol.

With the growth of bitcoin today, I think that attracts people, men and women, to invest in bitcoin. We do not know how many men and women are out there since there is no exact number of women involved in crypto. I think the crypto user will not always tell that they use crypto, whether men or women. Maybe women are busy with their world and not paying attention to crypto. I am sure many women are involved in crypto without want to tell men.

The proportion of women investing in and participating in the cryptocurrency field is far less than that of men. It has been confirmed in some investigations and studies. Research has found that in the process of risk decision-making, pressure will amplify gender differences in strategies, with men taking more risks and women taking less. This may be why there are fewer women than men in the encryption field.

[clarkt]

We need more women and men in cryptocurrency.  It is seem men are drawn to cryptocurrency more than women,  why this is so is still not understood.  Men take risk more than women and this might be one of the reasons why cryptocurrency is appealing to men.  

[BayAngelo]

they have been the minority in everything. no withstanding. they are the bedrock of all these platforms. they are the backbone of every business. they are the minority but Not neglected. i know lot of them doing great job at the background. we can't do without them. they complete the investment cycle. they are lots of them achieving great things.

Women do not have such high quest to make money since men are always the head in the family and their obligations are to tend more for the family when compared to women. Men are highly spirited ready to take risks no matter the circumstances that is involved.

This is how they are just created and meant to be. When you look at most professions except, secretary,  nursing and some other women related professions where women are highly populated are just few, majority of professions are highly populated by men even where compared to trading, investing and cryptocurrency.

I feel this digital adventure should be of major interest to females since they can't afford to do tudious and muscular jobs. Crypto investment is actually a non gender based adventure and it's opened to all who have interest in accumulating wealth from the cyber space which comes in more passively. For now if females tend to dominate let's appreciate them because they are taking advantage of the era to make meaningful profit from the world of decentralized currencies

[kokrokok]

from my experience, why women are in the minority because women don't really like promises or things that are uncertain, many of them like something real, maybe it's a woman's instinct
