> It's not like there are say 45 countries in this planet where woman are forbidden to manage money, have a company or even a bank account. Pff... preposterous right? Why should allow Mohamed to send money to his mother in Palest... I mean commit money laundering?

I haven't seen much evidence that crypto is actually heavily used for this. Its main use case remains mostly "tech casino" with huge costs.

> A third of the 16,000 girls who learned with Roya and Forough went on to set up crypto wallets and receive funds.

So 5000 girls set up the crypto wallet and used it at least once.

I haven't found a lot of specifics/numbers in relation to EndSARS.
