It amazes me the number of men in crypto but women not so much.
When I talk to my girlfriend or female friends I feel like they don't care about it or I am crazy lol. I offered 3 of my female friends 10 dollars worth of Bitcoin via Coinbase to see if they will be interested. I helped download the app, set up two-factor authentication and some other basic stuff. After a couple of months, they even don't recall how to access their wallets. I am very disappointed lol. Can someone explain to me why women are not interested in crypto?

There are two gaps to consider.

Bitcoin is widely treated as an investment asset, and women generally invest in financial markets much less than men:
Why women invest 40 percent less than men
Why fewer women invest in the financial market

Secondly, there's the technology aspect. There is a pronounced gender gap in computing and STEM fields in general, partly due to differing levels of interest:

A survey, conducted by SWIFT ("Supporting Women in Information Technology") based in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, asked 7,411 participants questions about their career choices. The survey found that females compared to males have lower levels of interest and perceived ability in computer science. This study (as well as others) provides a strong base for a positive correlation between both level of interest and perceived ability with career choice.

I want to agree with the facts that most women actual do not really have that mind set to actually accept the volatility of bitcoin and as a result, even when given over $2000 worth of bitcoin, such dollars can be withdrawn as soon a woman discover the price of bitcoin is going down.Their mindset is different from that of men.
