While women remain a minority among traders and investors in cryptocurrencies, a platform for trading digital currencies has revealed that the deal could change. More and more women are showing increasing interest in the cryptocurrency industry.
Women in the cryptocurrency industry
"The number of women planning to invest in digital currencies has gone from 6% to 13% in the last six months," according to City AM.A market study conducted by the British Cryptocurrency Exchange London Block Exchange demonstrated that Generation Y has more women interested by crypto-currencies only men. One in five women expressed their desire to invest in it.
According to the study, men and women invest differently. Women are more strategic because they are 50% less likely at FOMO only men. They do not feel as much fear of missing out on an opportunity to invest, which streamlines their decision.
On the other hand, women are twice as likely to consult their loved ones before entering the virtual currency market. Men tend to "go it alone. "
Women are more and more present
While women are increasingly exploring the industry, there has been no noticeable change in the number of men investing in cryptocurrencies over the past 6 months. Agnes de Roeyer, a business analyst at LBX said in an interview:
"There is always a misconception that virtual currency is a game for men, but we've seen hundreds of women sign up on trading sites over the last few months and some of the most inspiring investors and the best informed, at the top of the industry, are women. "Yet, an earlier study of the etoro speculative stock exchange suggests that until recently, the vast majority of professionals in the industry are male. Men represent 91.5% of investors, only the remaining 8.5% are women.
