According to a survey done by coinbase, one-third of graduated women do not believe they have equal access to the financial system in their own countries. They also think crypto could help to close the economic gender gap in the future as in few societies, women are dependent on men for their financial decisions.
Women in Tech Industry
In the technology field, women hold 20% of Jobs, and females found about 17% startups. This percentage has dramatically increased in the recent past. It is expected that this number would increase in the future as female startup founders encourage more and more females to jump into the tech industry.
Women in Crypto
As cryptocurrency trading is a decentralized transaction system, it is not limited to businesses. Everybody, regardless of gender, can participate in it. Currently, there is only 5% of women who are crypto enthusiasts. This includes a different group of investors, developers, or just casually interested women. This percentage is meager when we compare it with two factors, one being the overall trend of women is low as in the global tech industry, and secondly, a whopping 95% of men in cryptocurrency is a much more significant percentage as a whole.
Only 65% of women globally have a bank account as compared to 72% of men. It is believed that men own almost 70% of online digital currency; a digital wallet company says its women customers are just 6% as compared to men. Although the numbers are quite small right now, it is believed that it is going to change soon. As early signs being women groups appearing in a recent meet up at San Francisco, where the opportunity for women in crypto trading was discussed, and they were educated on how they can play their vital role in this industry.
According to recent findings by coinbase, among younger women, there exists an interesting connection between financial independence and the potential role that crypto could play. Educated women showed interest in crypto trading as they realized it could help in leveling the playing field with financial inclusion.

Well without even considering the gender, it would be inevitable for women to lean on getting to hold with their Bitcoin, either as their side money or for part-time job because like many of them were staying at home anyway unless they aren't married.
It isn't that they do not have the so-called "equal rights to financial system", I could just put it into opinion that they're not just that quite tech-savvy to even get into digital coins other than credit card/debit card (which aren't coin but obviously a digital payment method).
