My theory is that there are approaches and techniques that are peculiar to women that work really well in this space. Actually, crypto is one place where women should absolutely not try to act like men. I think we do far better being ourselves because we see things and make connections that don't come naturally to men. If anything, this industry in some ways is biased towards women.

Also, women can be very savvy investors because they make connections that don't come as naturally to men.

Granted, arguendo.  If, as you posit, women have a superior ability to “make connections that don’t come as naturally to men”, then would you also allow the possibility that men have abilities “peculiar to men”?  Such may be the cause of men’s overwhelming predominance in mathematics, science, engineering, and a hundred other fields of endeavour.  Otherwise stated, the fields themselves may be “biased towards [men]”.

Actually in developed nations, men might still be earning most of the money, but women definitely decide how to spend it running their households and so forth.

Wait—did you just say that men earn most of the money, and women spend most of it?
