Cryptocurrency was founded on the ideal of freeing money from the old systems of monetary control, with all the gender inequality inherent in them. Yet the burgeoning networks of Web3, including both crypto and NFT trading, seem at risk of repeating the same striking disparities. Current estimates show only five percent of those who work in crypto are women, and an equally small proportion of NFT sales go to women artists. In this video, we meet some of the women founders, creators, and artists who are fighting to change those statistics and shape a more equitable future for Web3.

Oh great, we're now going from influencers into crypto scammers. Bye.
Women part of the hugest scam in human history nobody cares, I feel sorry for all of you who invested & try and join a get rich scheme. Warren Buffett once said, "I'd rather invest long term in the S&P 500 then put my money in crypto." Let's see what's happening now, every project is either a ponzi scheme or bunch of influencers doing pump and dumps. Wake up children their feeding you non sense!
I was falling sleep watching this
😂😂😂 yea they are awesome
What have you become vice
Proverbs 4 : 18
For those who cannot see, as of this comment,

You're welcome.
They shouldn't have to justify their existence to anyone.
all 3 scammers
My mother wouldn't scam people with NFTs
I subbed for your amazing coverage of the Russo-Ukrainian conflict and stayed for the numerous great videos you uploaded. I started to feel weird when I saw the amount of video related to web3 and crypto, but this is ridiculous lmao, so long !
they didnt say anything…. they just told us their uninteresting life stories to promote their feminist NFTS. the video is literally a #ad, how is this news SMH
Wow, great financial advice!
Changing the future of the internet… The one who came up with this marketing phrase has clearly no clue on what's going on in the crypto/nft space. It is an insult to those women in tech who DO make the difference.
Lol vice thinks NFT and Internet is the same thing. Also wish this could be more about the actual business instead of drawn out rants about being a woman. They are beautiful women living in america making good money online. Most people, women and men, would kill to be in their position.
First vice video I've ever disliked, I consider myself a feminist, but trying to claim an industry that's male dominated is inherently misogynistic is unironically misandry. I'm sure there are some spaces in the crypto industry that are every unwelcoming to women, sure, but to try to project that sentiment to the whole space is just very disingenuous flat out dishonest.
DUE TO MISOGYNY! WE HAVE ALWAYS BEEN INCLUDED INTO THE GLOBE. FEELING WHAT IS KNOWN AS DISINCLUSION IS DUE TO STOCKHOLM SYNDROME… PLEASE READ UP ON GLOBAL HISTORY KNOWN AS WORLD HISTORY; JUST LOOK AT THE WORDS THAT ARE USED IN SCHOOL, YOU SEE THEM( THESE WORDS) THROUGHOUT SOCIETY. FOR EXAMPLE: menstrual cycle BROKEN DOWN : MEN STRUAL (STROLL) CY CLE (PSYCHO) A CORPORATION OF CORRUPTION… DRUGS USED TO QUITE ,,, WE ALL SEE YOU.
These woman are scammers
What many women that are championing for "equality" in many traditional male spaces don't understand is that it's a cut throat dog eat dog World even for men. Many women are used to getting validation without any effort because of their looks. If you want to get actual recognition in these spaces, you have to be out of the ordinary. Unfortunately so many of them often revert to using their s€×uality to get an advantage, which entirely discredit their efforts.
these poor women, going to lose their time and money in NFTs, i hope this video was filmed months ago, and they is old news
to be honest, this video made me misogynistic.
I like it, this is absolut trolling on best level. Highly contra productive post of vice, i like it.
Buy a dog die alone lol
Why would they post this. The NFT bubble has already popped. Their is already news that most people have lost 98% percent of the value in NFT’s 🤦🏽♂️.
Uh oh…title contains "women", "change" and "internet". This is gonna rustle some neckbeard jimmies.
cringe.
Lmao ok bro, sure they are…
I thought they were engineers making stuff. How are they changing the internet ??
Yes, let us give equal footing for women grifters of the Internet.
i miss 2010-2015 vice
