Binance Launches 'CRYPTO' Perfume to Attract More Women to Crypto, But Effort Risks Seeming Patronizing
- Binance launched a perfume called "CRYPTO" to celebrate International Women's Day and attract more women to crypto
- The perfume smells like "ozone, salt, moss, Oud, Mandarin, precious woods, Amber, Woody, and Musk"
- Women can sample the perfume at malls in Bahrain and earn $25 in USDT if they complete a beginner crypto course
- Crypto is known to be male-dominated, with only 7% of web3 founders being women
- Binance's CMO says the perfume marketing is meant to be "tongue-in-cheek" and satirical, but it risks seeming patronizing
