Hello Crypto World — We are the CryptoChicks!

_ To accomplish gender equality, men and women need to stand together for the cause _

CryptoChicks is about improving the gender balance in the blockchain community by creating an environment where women feel safe to learn. We provide online and offline blockchain & cryptocurrency workshops, host events and organize women-only hackathons to give more ladies the opportunity to thrive in this space.

Our vision is international, and after one year of workshops and meetups across Canada, and a successful hackathon and conference last April, we’re now ready to open international chapters in USA, Russia, Pakistan, Bahamas… but more on this later on!

Why was CryptoChicks created?

The motivation for forming the group was fairly obvious: the underrepresentation of women at major cryptocurrency gatherings and within the tech industry in general.

We believe that women’s involvement will help blockchain realize its enormous potential as an instrument of positive change in the world.

Recent studies have shown that women account for less than 10% of the community. The earliest adopters of Bitcoin were primarily male PC gamers and cyberpunks community members. And even though the technology evolved since then, the gender imbalance is still present, and it might be threatening its ability to attain mass adoption.

Who can be a CryptoChick?

Female investors, female entrepreneurs, women involved in technology, female corporate managers, career ladies, housewives, grandmothers, and all other women who heard about the hype around cryptocurrencies and want to learn more and possibly invest or use it in their business or job, but need a way to get started.

“The diversity of the audience — in knowledge, gender, age and race — made the event particularly stimulating and interesting. It was a great event to inspire and encourage women in the field or those looking to get into the blockchain space.” — Rachel Cheng from RightMesh, on her experience at the Cryptochicks Conference and Hackathon.

We connect these women to mentors who have been working with the blockchain technology and entrepreneurs in this space who are ready to share their experiences and teach the best practices.

Blockchain has the potential to change everything we do, from personal finance, to doctors visits to voting and this is why we need a diversity of minds in the space to collaborate and push the boundaries of this new technology.

A word for all the crypto ladies

Hello cryptochicks! Welcome to Steemit! Hope you'll like the community here. As a start, here are 5 tips that we believe will be helpful to you:

  1. Keep your passwords safe: Unlike conventional sites, Steemit has 4 types of passwords. Each offers varying degrees of access to your account, so know where and when to use each of them. Also, make sure to keep them all safe and secure.
  2. Get Steem rewards: When writing a post, you'll have the option to choose how to receive your reward: "Default 50%/50%" or "Power Up 100%". As of this moment, choosing Default 50%/50% is the better option. But this can change over time. Check our post to know more.
  3. Upvote wisely: When upvoting, wait at least 30 minutes after the post is published to maximize your curation reward. Also, make sure not to upvote too much too fast so as not to drain your voting power.
  4. Know your Steem, Steem Dollars and Steem Power: Steem and Steem Dollars are the 2 main currencies here. Convert and power up more Steem into Steem Power so you can have higher values on your upvotes.
  5. Have Fun and Enjoy!
