Smart Contracts and Gender Equality A Technological Approach to an Old Problem

Smart contracts represent a novel approach to addressing ingrained issues of gender inequality in the tech sector. By automating and enforcing contracts without bias, they hold the promise of creating more equitable professional environments. However, their impact is inherently limited by societal, educational, and professional barriers that women face in technology. Without addressing these foundational issues, smart contracts alone cannot remedy gender inequality, though they are a step towards more transparent and fair operational practices in technology.
