Survey: A third of women plans to buy crypto this year
- According to the survey, every fourth woman already has crypto
- other sub-sectors in the industry remain largely undeveloped by women, since only 5 % bought an NFT or participated in the crypto mining
According to a new survey by Blockfi, about a third of women plans to buy cryptocurrencies this year. Of these women, 60 % stated that they plan to buy digital assets in the next few months.
This is more than twice as much as the 29 % of women who, in a survey of September 2021, provide for you to buy something within the next year.
"There is no better way to learn something new than to do it - especially if you immerse yourself in the apparently complex world of cryptography," said Flori Marquez, founder and SVP of Operations from Blockfi.
For example, every fourth woman already has crypto systems, and the majority of them have never sold what they bought from this group.
The results also showed that women buy Bitcoin, Dogecoin and Ether most frequently - with 71 %, 42 %and 18 %. However, other sub-sectors in this area remain largely unused by women, since only 5 % bought an NFT or took part in the crypto mining.
In general, the crypto sector is a strongly male-dominated industry. Of the 121 leading crypto companies, only five or 4.13 % female founders Research by CryptoHead. Of these founders - Marquez is one of them - all companies also have at least one male founder.
The number of women in the industry will increase. The Blockfi survey showed that 15 % of women are interested in working in the area of crypto, but only 10 % plan to apply to crypto or block chain-oriented companies within the next year.
"It is very exciting to know that women become more aware of the benefits of possession of crypto and express interest in working in the cryptos sector," said Marquez. "Now it is our responsibility to further close the educational gap and provide as many entry options as possible so that women are easily gaining access to the cryptoma markets and feels good to do more with their crypto."
The survey was carried out by an independent survey panel at the end of January and consisted of 1,031 Americans between the ages of 18 and 65. This is the third edition of your "Real Talk" survey, which is on the settings for crypto, financial well-being and career requests.
"With a view to the future, I hope that crypto will become an essential part of the plan for the financial well -being of everyone," said Marquez.
