Women, finances, freedom – Evelyn Brock at 21women
With the 21women initiative, 21bitcoin has launched a platform that focuses on financial education and financial freedom for women. Under the motto “Women, Finance, Freedom”, the campaign brings together 21 women from different areas – with the aim of imparting knowledge, boosting self-confidence and building a sustainable network.
One of these 21 voices is Evelyn Brock, Chairwoman of the Bitcoin Bundesverband.
In this interview, she talks about financial self-determination, Bitcoin as a store of value, political responsibility and the importance of diversity within the Bitcoin community.

Financial education as the basis for freedom
Financial freedom does not necessarily mean wealth. It means the ability to act.
The ability to make decisions not out of fear, but out of conviction.
In the interview, Evelyn Brock emphasizes that financial literacy is not an optional additional qualification, but a social necessity. Women in particular are historically underrepresented in the area of wealth accumulation and financial education – with long-term consequences for retirement provision, entrepreneurial decisions and economic independence.
This is exactly where initiatives like 21women come in:
- Low-threshold financial education
- Exchange at eye level
- Access to new asset classes such as Bitcoin
- Strengthening self-confidence and personal responsibility
Bitcoin is not a men’s issue – but a freedom issue
In the interview, Evelyn Brock also talks about her work in the Bitcoin Bundesverband.
As a board member, she is committed to:
- objective political discussions
- Regulatory clarity
- Educational work instead of ideology
- and more diversity in the community
Bitcoin is often still perceived by society as a technically dominated field. However, the underlying issues – the monetary system, asset protection, inflation, economic self-determination – affect everyone equally.
Diversity is therefore not a “nice-to-have”, but crucial for sustainable Bitcoin adoption.
Education instead of speculation
A central concern of the interview:
Bitcoin must not be reduced to speculation.
Complexity is not an exclusion criterion – but an invitation to education.
Many women are reluctant to get involved in financial issues, not because they are uninterested, but because they are not interested:
- lack of financial education
- negative beliefs about money
- Fear of making mistakes
- of an often technically dominated discourse
What is needed here are spaces where questions are allowed and learning is a matter of course.
It is precisely these spaces that initiatives such as 21women create – and this is also where the educational and association work comes in.
Political responsibility and social classification
The work of the Bitcoin Bundesverband consists not only of regulatory support, but also of social classification.
Bitcoin needs:
- Legal clarity
- fact-based discussion
- economic understanding
- and broad social participation
The interview impressively shows that Bitcoin adoption is not just a technological or economic issue – but also a cultural and educational one.
Conclusion
21women is a network that focuses on financial education, personal responsibility and economic freedom.
The Bitcoin Bundesverband welcomes initiatives that:
- Promoting diversity
- Strengthen education
- and make Bitcoin understandable as part of a self-determined wealth strategy
Because financial literacy is the basis for real freedom – for both women and men.
