Crypto sits at the intersection of two male-dominated industries: tech and finance. I was asked to moderate a panel for the Amber Group with four leading women in crypto to discuss the role of gender in the crypto industry and what can be done to bring more women into the space. Panelists include Mia Deng, partner at Dragonfly Capital; Amy Zhang, vice president of sales at Fireblocks; Alexis Gauba, cofounder at Opyn; and Annabelle Huang, partner at Amber Group. Show highlights:
how each panelist got into crypto, what it is they do, and which company they work for
why women have been somewhat reluctant to speak on crypto gender disparity in public
what the main obstacles to bringing about better gender diversity in crypto
whether the crypto space is harder to break into than traditional finance for women
how gender issues in the U.S. are different than in Asia
why more women have begun trading cryptocurrencies and how to increase that interest
which crypto explanations are most effective for female friends
why there are so few female crypto co-founders
good hiring practices for bringing more women into the space
advice for women trying to break into crypto
