We don't need to cancel Panties for Bitcoin—I think it serves a niche that likes and purchases the products they create. Rather than take something down, we can be constructive in our approach and develop new institutions to help with this mission.
You might be unaware that there are plenty of women in Bitcoin already. Elizabeth Stark is CEO of Lightning Labs and is a shining star and example of great women leadership in Bitcoin. Valentine Wallace runs LDK, and she's another great example of women's leadership in Bitcoin. Gloria Zhao is doing incredible work as well. There are tons more that I'm missing too.
There are plenty of women in Bitcoin, you just need to know where to look. The Bitcoin community is not a community that rewards you simply because you're a woman. However, we're also not a community that will reject you because you're a woman. We try to be neutral and objective, just like Bitcoin itself.

In no world can you say there are "plenty" but there is a presence. I agree that we can be constructive in our approach without trying to tear down existing movements, but we have to be honest with ourselves about representation. The percent of women in Bitcoin, compared to the men, probably make up like 10% of the demographic. Go to a random sampling of Bitcoin meetups around the country and you'll probably see 1 girl for every 10 guys that are there.

This op parrot is a troll and “lack of women in Bitcoin” is a marginalizing concept to make you feel bad about it.
Build it and they will come. There isn’t anything to do at Bitcoin meetups to “make them more appealing to women” except to keep building out the freedom tools that work for the people regardless of their gender.
