Thanks! I actually kept pondering about this question for some more time, and realized that also: Men are still statistically way more often involved in 'tech' in general. So I can imagine that waaaaay more men then women ever just simply 'set up a server and started mining because why not'. So might very well be that many men just simply 'took a chance' and had a nice start-up fund to trade/invest with before they even realised what value they were holding.

This to me is on top the already existing financial/economic differences between men and women.

Just another two cents :-) Cheers dear @coruscate!
