OM DENNE EPISODE
Dear friends, This photo was taken 44 stories above Toronto at our SheCrypto x New Friendship Tech rooftop after-party, celebrating the close of Blockchain Futurist Conference during Canada Crypto Week.
Fun fact: I’m afraid of heights. 😅
So, yes ... I smiled for the photo. Then … I happily stepped away from the edge.
As the elevator climbed toward the rooftop, my ears popped somewhere around the 40th floor. It struck me that everyone attending Canada Crypto Week and Blockchain Futurist Conference was doing exactly the same thing, just in a different way.
We were all reaching new heights, together.
Not just in our careers or companies, but in what we’re building together.
Blockchain has always been about exploring new frontiers. Every founder launching a startup, every developer writing code, every investor backing an idea, every creator educating a community, every entrepreneur taking a risk, and every organization pushing the industry forward is helping shape what’s next.
The people willing to climb first don’t just change their own future. They make it possible for others to climb, too.
That’s what I love most about this community.
People often tell me, “Your events are incredible.” “I love the podcast.” “SheCrypto has built such an amazing community.”
Thank you. It truly means the world.
But here’s the truth. …
SheCrypto is not a one-woman show.
I may have founded it, but everything we’ve built exists because of our team, our partners, our collaborators, and the thousands of people who believe we can create a stronger, more inclusive blockchain ecosystem … together.
Over the past year alone, we’ve helped more than 2,000 women attend blockchain and Bitcoin conferences at no cost, opening doors to education, careers, partnerships, mentorship, investment opportunities, and lifelong friendships.
That didn’t happen because of one person.
It happened because an entire community chose to show up.
Founders. Investors. Developers. Builders. Creators. Volunteers. Ambassadors. Sponsors. Partners. Women and men who believe innovation is stronger when more people have the opportunity to contribute.
Our Toronto networking event and rooftop after-party brought together people from across North America’s blockchain ecosystem. Many are building the companies, infrastructure, products, and policies that will shape the future of finance, technology, and digital ownership.
What made the evening unforgettable wasn’t anyone’s title.
It was the conversations.
A willingness to share ideas.
The introductions that turned into friendships.
Collaborations that may become tomorrow’s breakthroughs.
A huge thank you to Eric Spivak and the New Friendship Tech team for partnering with us on such an incredible evening.
Thank you as well to the wonderful team at Bisha Hotel Toronto for hosting us on what I believe is the most spectacular rooftop in the city.
And thank you to everyone who makes SheCrypto possible: Laura, Jennifer, Zeynep, Yaeunda, our ambassadors and partners around the world, Laura and Tracy and the entire Blockchain Futurist Conference team for creating one of the industry’s premier gatherings, Eric and the New Friendship Tech team, Cal, Elvis, Brad, Jacob, James, JVW for his continued encouragement and support of our mission, our volunteers, and every single person who has helped this community grow.
YOU are the reason this community continues to grow.
Standing 44 stories above Toronto and gazing out at the CN Tower reminded me of something I’ll never forget.The future isn’t built by people who stay comfortable.
It’s built by people willing to take the next step, explore new frontiers, innovate, challenge what’s possible, and then reach back to help someone else climb.
That’s how we reach new heights. Together. 💜
