Why Should Women Care About Bitcoin? | Ep. 58 — #58 Amanda

In this powerhouse episode, Amanda, a former DOJ prosecutor and founder of the Association for Women in Cryptocurrency, joins Stewart and Chris to unpack why Bitcoin isn’t just bro tech talk. It’s financial autonomy. It’s global access. It’s security. And it’s something every woman should know about.
