Wallets, taxes, scams, yield, and your first $100. The six cornerstone guides every woman in crypto deserves, written without jargon, condescension, or bro energy.
Most crypto education was written for men, by men, with the assumption that the reader either already understood the basics or wanted to be talked down to. That is not the experience women want when they are deciding how to put real money to work in a new financial system. The WICG learning library exists to fix that. Six cornerstone guides, each covering one essential topic, each written in plain English by women who actually understand both the technology and the audience.
If you are new to crypto, start with the first guide. If you have a specific question, jump to the relevant topic. If you have been in crypto for a while and want a refresher with current 2026 information, use this as your reference library. All guides are free, no signup required. Bookmark this page.
Begin with our flagship beginner guide. It is the 20-minute walkthrough every woman entering crypto deserves but rarely gets. Which exchange to use. Which two-factor authentication setup. What to buy first. What never to do. Built around the assumption that you have never made a single crypto purchase and want to do it right the first time.
