Smart Contracts Not a Silver Bullet for Gender Equality

While smart contracts offer numerous benefits in promoting transparency and efficiency in the technology sector, viewing them as the key to gender equality might be overly optimistic. Gender equality involves multifaceted social and economic factors, including but not limited to access to education, equal pay, and representation in leadership roles. While smart contracts can aid in some of these areas, particularly in enforcing equitable pay, the solution to gender inequality is likely to be a combination of policy, education, and technological innovation, rather than a single technological solution.
