Bitcoin Dada Nairobi is a women-centric entity focused on educating African women about Bitcoin. It aims to overcome barriers that prevent women from participating in the Bitcoin space and to narrow the gender divide in the technology sector through education, community building, and networking opportunities.
Bitcoin Dada was founded to address three key issues: the lack of knowledge among women about Bitcoin, the perception of Bitcoin as complex and unrelatable, and the gender disparity within the Bitcoin ecosystem. The founders recognized that women in Africa, who make up a significant portion of the population, are often left behind in digital innovation.
