Since the advent of cryptocurrencies, their use has been dominated by men. However, in an effort to change that and empower women to adopt digital currencies, a site called Crypto Moms was launched in April 2014.
The site aims to give women the information they need in order to make smart investment choices regarding digital currencies and encourage more female participation in the cryptocurrency community.
Growing Popularity
The site's membership base has increased to more than 6,000 registered users over the past year as more and more women become interested in adopting cryptocurrencies. Although Crypto Moms was set up by the team behind alt-coin DNotes, the site promises to deliver unbiased information about a wide range of cryptocurrencies and how to use them.

Breadth Of Information
Crypto Moms includes information covering everything from mining new coins to setting up a digital wallet. It also provides safety and security information and advice as well as answers to common questions regarding digital currencies. The site also boasts a forum which members can use to connect to other cryptocurrency enthusiasts.
Financial Independence
Not only does the site hope to close the gender gap in the cryptocurrency community, Crypto Moms is also aimed at giving women a better handle on their finances. By making the topic of digital currencies more accessible, the site believes that women will be better able to make meaningful investments that translate into retirement savings later in life.
The site has also created the Cryptocurrency Investment Savings Plan for Kids, as well in order to get children and their parents thinking about putting funds away for the future.
