42% of new crypto investors in 2025-2026 are women.
Up from 34% in previous years.
And $ETH is the coin they're most likely discovering first.

This number from the National Cryptocurrency Association's 2026 report stopped me.

42% female adoption among new investors. That's not a niche statistic. That's a market transformation happening in real time.

And here's why $ETH specifically benefits from this demographic shift:

New investors don't buy obscure altcoins first. They buy what's accessible.
Charles Schwab just launched spot crypto trading — BTC and ETH first.
Fannie Mae accepts crypto as mortgage collateral — normalizing ETH ownership.
4 in 10 US crypto holders now use digital assets for daily payments.

The average new investor in 2026 is not a 25-year-old male trader.
They're diverse. They're cautious. They buy established coins.
ETH is the #2 established coin.
