Why now is the time for more women to pursue a career in blockchain

Want to learn how blockchain can change the world and why now is the precise time for more women to enter the field? Moonshot suggests listening to this podcast by Girls in Tech.

Some years ago we didn’t really understand the power and capability of the internet. Now, it’s the same thing with Blockchain – a fascinating new technology that has the same potential to change the world – but most of us are not very familiar with it. 

In this podcast, Dr. Tal Rabin, Professor of Computer Science at the University of Pennsylvania and Research Advisor of the Algorand Foundation, an organization committed to fulfilling the global promise of blockchain technology, talks about blockchain technology, its history, and its applications. 

She explains what makes blockchain so fascinating and describes its relationship with cryptocurrency. She discusses whether blockchain is secure or safe and how bitcoin drove its design. She explains what skills a person would need if they wished to enter the blockchain industry, she highlights why women need to enter tech and underscores the power of diversity in inclusion in the field.
