Cryptocurrency has a 'bro' problem. Women say they can disrupt the Bitcoin bros

  What if we were to say that cryptocurrency has a 'gal' problem. Men say they can disrupt the Bitcoin gals.

    You can say that, but the SF Chronicle is not gonna print it.

      If they want to disrupt it, I say go for it. They can also fork it and create a girly version of any crypto.

  Cryptocurrency doesn't have a "bro" problem it has a charismatic-con-man problem. I do understand how the two might look similar.

  Cryptocurrency doesn't have a 'bro' problem. Cryptocurrency suffers from the fact that it simultaneously exists in two completely different realities. On one hand there's the technology side of things with people like Vitalik Buterin, or Charles Hoskinson (among many others) who are legitimately excited by the possibilities that Blockchain offers (and the challenges that have to be solved to get there). And on the other hand there are those who got lucky by investing early into Bitcoin, have absolutely no clue how the technology works, but convinced themselves that they are some kind of crypto genius trading gurus and are now running around flaunting their wealth and convincing others to invest either into Bitcoin, or worse, into one of many cobbled together ponzi-scheme scam altcoin token. Those people of course aren't very inclusive, but that's not a crypto problem, that's a con-artist, trading guru, get rich quick scheme problem.
