Demystifying Crypto: Can It Help You Bui...

Shari Rash, Money Podcast for Women, Personal Finance, Relationships & Mental Health
About this episode

What do you know about crypto? Illegal? A fad? A scam? Unregulated? The truth is there is still so much to be demystified. As you heard in the intro, our guest Tonya Evans, A law professor at Penn State, author of Digital Money Demystified, and keynote speaker, is sought after for her expertise in intellectual property, new technologies, and crypto, and believes that crypto is an important piece of wealth building, especially for women and women of color. Here’s the thing: this year, crypto is seeing its first signs of adoption and acceptance by traditional finance, with 11 exchange-traded funds now on the market. Tonya believes the future of crypto will be both normalized and commonplace. So before you go turning your nose up at crypto, I want you to learn from Tonya, who is here to separate fact from fiction.

In this episode,

  • We discuss why crypto is key to helping women build wealth
  • The common myths around crypto that you must question
  • What you need to know before investing
