CryptoFemme Leadership Panel Joins Female Disruptors Virtual Summit

Is crypto dead or just getting started? For women, the stats look underwhelming and under-represented.

Meet CryptoFemme, a group of women and femme people who want to earn passive income with crypto, but need to know where to start or have limited time to learn about it.

CryptoFemme will join Female Disruptors for a panel titled "Defining Ourselves as Female Leadership in the Blockchain/Crypto Space."

The discussion will focus on how women are shaping the future of digital currency and blockchain through their work, research, and investment. Panelists will share their insights and experiences on what it means to be a woman working in this space.

Her Story: Crypto Femme’s Founder Natalie Demary

I'm a full-time crypto evangelist and investor. I have a background in marketing and advertising, but I left it all behind in late 2020 to pursue -- You guessed it: Crypto!

In October 2020, more than 20 local ladies in the ATX area asked me to help them get started with crypto...

So I decided to open things up to everyone and eventually get 'CryptoFemme' chapters started in other cities!

Less than one month later, I created @CryptoFemme (FB page) and this group because I understand the desire so many people have:

Wanting to make money in crypto without it taking up way too much time, or WORSE -- having your hard-earned money swept out from under you.

This group is a passion project for me because today (2022), 14% of adults worldwide are invested in crypto...But more than 70% of them are men. Let's change that statistic!"

More Crypto Stats

Did you know that 75% of crypto holders are men? Moreover, 60% of crypto investors are white men under the age of 45 – creating an uninviting culture that gatekeeps women from participating in the $2.2 Billion crypto industry.

CryptoFemme Talks on the Future of Females in Crypto

Join the CryptoFemme team and learn about their vision for bringing crypto to one million women by 2030 because the future is female, and crypto is the future. Natalie and the team are betting on the massive mainstream adoption of blockchain technology applications by startups worldwide in virtually all industries and niches within the next five years. 

Today only 15% of crypto investors are women, and only 4% of blockchain professionals are women. Let's do our part to create equal representation in the space and ensure that women can win BIG when the time comes.
