The Blockchain was created to be a technology that should work as a great equaliser, all the middlemen could be cut out and everyone should be able to fend for themselves and take control of their own lives. In practice though a small group of men who adopted this technology early on, have seized a great deal of power and gender balance seems to be even more disturbed than in the real world. In this episode we’re meeting the women who are on the forefront of social change in this digital world, trying to fight for equal rights on the blockchain.

The blockchain is making an impact on lives all around the world. In the western world it is seen by many as an investment or a new and interesting industry to venture into. But in Africa’s biggest economy, this is slightly different. We’re in Nigeria where the impact of blockchain is arguably bigger than in most other places. We’re seeing how investing in crypto and starting crypto companies have changed lives here. But a government ban, after crypto was used to fund protests, disrupted this emerging industry and now people are having to find ways to work around it.
Episode 6 Blockchain life series – The Ripple vs. SEC Saga Watch on myco
