Why do we need more women in the encryption industry?
“Crypto Bro” has been the stereotypes for a long time, or perhaps ever. Although this culture may have helped early adoption, it was also excluded towards women. Some early women have faced interrogation, skepticism, and explicit treatment that they do not deserve to represent a culture of encryption in discussions. But this changes.
Today you face stereotypes and make a mistake on the basis of these stereotypes. Leaders like Natalie Brunell, defender of Bitcoin, call for more vision, guidance and knowledge sharing. An increasing number of institutions, investors and developers, in turn, define new features of the inspiration of others.
Acting matters; The higher the number of women to driving roles in encryption, the fundamental motivation that is created for others to join the fold, which creates a ripple effect. Acting sends a strong message that this space belongs to everyone, and not just a few selected.
