3 Best Cryptocurrency Podcasts Hosted By Women
Navigating through the crypto world can be difficult. You’ve got to keep up-to-date with how rapidly the industry is moving and not to mention make sense of it. If you’re new to the industry, you may encounter all types of technical terms being thrown at you making it all the more complicated. Such as “yield farming”, “dust transactions” or “mooning” (hint: its not the kind you think).
This is where crypto podcasts can help. There is an abundance of crypto podcasts to choose from and until recently, most of these were hosted by men. But now, we have started to see a growing number of women podcasters in the space that are working to make a name for themselves whilst introducing other women to the industry.
These crypto queens are changing the way we view the industry with one podcast episode at a time. Here’s a list of the 3 best crypto podcasts hosted by women:
1. Cryptocurrency for Beginners
Host: Crypto Casey
Rating: 4.8 stars on iTunes
Duration: 10–20 minutes
YouTuber Crypto Casey started this podcast in mid-2020 with the objective of breaking down complex crypto topics for newbies. Her episodes cover things like crypto investing, weekly market updates, crypto taxes and more.
Cryptocurrency for Beginners seems to embody ELI5 (Explain Like I’m 5) pretty well, while also providing witty commentary on current issues such as the recent US banking crisis.
If you’re new to crypto and would like to learn the basics, this would be the ideal podcast for you to start with. But if you’re already well-versed, you might prefer the next 2 podcasts instead.
2. Unchained
Host: Laura Shin
Rating: 4.6 stars on iTunes
Duration: 30–90 minutes
Formerly known as “Unconfirmed”, Unchained has been around since 2016 making it one of the longest running and most popular crypto podcasts. The podcast is structured as follows:
- Every Tuesday: Interviews with industry experts.
- Every Friday: Weekly news recap and in-depth discussion of the week’s hottest headline.
- Every other week: Features “The Chopping Block” where 4 early-stage crypto investors discuss the latest crypto news.
The weekly interviews is what makes this podcast special as listeners get industry insight directly from CEOs of major exchanges to developers working on innovative projects. Discussions range from the rights of NFT creators and buyers to the potential of crypto replacing PayPal as the preferred method of payment in war-torn countries like Afghanistan.
Host Laura Shin, author of “The Cryptopians”, isn’t afraid to grill industry experts on their opinions— like the episode where Laura asked Mark Cuban about his view on ETH being a better store of value vs. Bitcoin. Or about his controversial statement that there is no correlation between what the Fed does and the price of Bitcoin.
