The chief executive of an Australian crypto charity has resigned after posting a series of offensive remarks against women in tech, which his own company has described as “misogynistic”.
Sam Joel, founder and CEO of GiveTree—a “game for good” in the Metaverse where a percentage of every transaction goes to charity—made the comments in response to an article that was shared on LinkedIn about women in start-ups featuring the high-profile scientist-turned-venture capitalist Elaine Stead.
