Maria Sharapova on the importance of Social media for women

While the world is changing at a rapid pace, women still need to catch up. In the age of digitization, Sharapova believes women should start talking about money, finance, and crypto. Recalling the initial days of her career, the Russian explained the importance of staying updated on the latest technological changes and trends.

“I want to allow women to have a space where they experiment with Web3. For example, I was 17 when I won my first grand slam and social media was in no way part of that experience. It took years for me to get comfortable with social media over time,” Sharapova said in an exclusive chat with Cointelegraph.
