Crypto-Patriarchy: The problem of Bitcoin's male domination

Not everything has to be a social network. If women want to get into cryptocurrencies, they'll do it. If men can find out about bitcoin, I do not see what is stopping women. I'm female and I had some bitcoins nearly 2 years ago, but I didn't expect it to go anywhere. I am of course a single case, the subject of my own anecdote, but all I am trying to explain that women are not blind.

It should not come as a surprise. Women typically have better things to do. Let's face it, even women that might be considered slightly "nerdy" (a word I detest) like those in UX/web design are not going to think too much about getting into bitcoin. They have cafés to attend, lunches to instagram and "meetings" to postpone.

For bitcoin, considering the prevalence of actual money and credit cards from daddy, you're looking at the small percentage of women that are like me: mathematicians, computer scientists, professional programmers, and maybe at a stretch economists, who actually have an interest in such things (not just possible salaries) and have the time to dick around with bitcoin.

Now, as soon as I specified the math/compsci/quantfin/prog interests that women would probably need to have to get into bitcoin, I eliminated a significant portion of all women. How many women of the minority left under my definition will want to get into cryptocurrencies?

Maybe I'm wrong. Maybe women of this generation are all programmers at heart and just need a responsive, flat-ui website or a desperately passionate white knight on a blogspot to help them realise their potential.

But I doubt it. All of these feminists/gender-rights people are nuts, trolls or both.

that this article is written by a male is a sad testament of the fall of Western civilization.

a man writing to a bunch of men to get more women to materialise out of thin air to do something.

Good luck. If you want women involved, post this to pinterest or other points of female convergence.

"Buzzword bingo!"
