On this episode of DAOn the Rabbit Hole, we’re talking with Deana Burke and Natasha Hoskins, Co-Founders of Boys Club. Boys Club is a community known as the no bro zone for the crypto curious.

Deana has been in the crypto space since 2017 and spent four years convincing her friend Natasha to get on the bandwagon. In 2021 Natasha finally saw what all of the hype was about and together, they founded Boys Club. 

Boys Club is a safe space for people to explore crypto and ask questions, even if they don’t look like the traditional tech guy. We discuss Boys Club’s mission of onboarding women and non-binary people into web3 by nurturing curiosity and helping people find web3 use cases for things they are already interested in. 

We dive deeper into Boys Club, how the name came to be, and what makes this community and brand so special. We also get into Boys Club’s DAO, why DAOs should start small, and how a brand can scale while maintaining its cohesiveness. We discuss the importance of women-led projects in the space, while also acknowledging that being a woman is not the most interesting thing here - it’s what we’re building and what we’re creating.
