Beyond the rather saucy title, this episode is actually about the potential behind Bitcoin Layer 2s, making the chain more like Ethereum, of course, with Bitcoin’s signature qualities intact. Andrea and Magy also discuss DeFi’s potential, a little about the importance of narratives in the blockchain space, and trends in the Asian market. Some highlights:
🌟Intentional inclusion: Why giving opportunities to women that would have otherwise been given to men is crucial for industry progression.
🔍Risk assessment: Why women's unique approach to evaluating risks is increasingly being valued in the blockchain space.
💼Trends among female investors: Namely, extensive research, risk assessment, a notable confidence gap, and a tendency for long-term investments (HODLing).
💡The systemic issue of limited VC capital for female-founded projects.
