🔹 The role of inflation, lockdowns, and financial exclusion in waking people up to Bitcoin
🔹 Why women’s stories in Bitcoin matter — and how they offer new ways to understand the technology
🔹 How Bitcoin helps women in restrictive environments gain financial sovereignty
🔹 Why non-technical people don’t need to know the code to understand Bitcoin’s value
🔹 What inspired Becca to write 21 Women in Bitcoin and how it’s already changing lives
