Bitpanda's behavioral study reveals notable differences in the gender investment approach. Women adopt more methodical and long -term strategies, demonstrating a more disciplined investment approach than their male counterparts.
Women adopt a patient investment strategy in crypto
According to a Bitpanda study conducted with 1,400 investors, half of women who invest in crypto favor long -term gains. The survey, shared with Cointelegraph, reveals that 49% of them keep their assets up to five years, and 39% plan to keep them longer.
Bitcoin is the favorite choice of 30% of investors, compared to 24% of men. This preference reflects a strategic approach rather than a simple prudence, as Mary Pedler, founder of Input Comms explains: “ When we invest in bitcoin, it is after understanding its fundamental value – we build a wealth for future generations. »»
THE statistics show that women carry out an average of 9 annual transactions, against 13 for men, thus adopting a more patient investment strategy.
Nkiru Uwaje, co -founder of Mansa, specifies: ” Women see the investment as an integral part of a global wealth strategy. We do not seek rapid profits and do not make decisions for fear of missing an opportunity. »»
Persistent challenges despite encouraging growth
Although the number of women investing in crypto regularly increases, significant obstacles remain. The survey reveals that 81% of respondents consider themselves inexperienced investors, and 24% cite the lack of knowledge as their greatest challenge.
Statistics show that only 26% of cryptos holders are women. However, those who started investing in January 2024 found an average growth of 8.1% of their investments over the year.
Gracy Chen, CEO of Bitget, underlines that “women generally adopt a style of patient investment, with a frequency of negotiations lower than that of men. This patience is perfectly translated on the volatile markets of cryptocurrencies. »»
To promote the inclusion of women in this sector, initiatives like Women in Ethereum Protocol (WIEP) emphasize education, clear advice and structured support, encouraging women starting with small investment amounts.
On this day of women, let us welcome this balanced approach which could well shape the future of the Crypto market and inspire more women to engage in this evolving sector.
