As well as providing in-depth information about the future of enterprise on the blockchain, this issue aims to inspire more women to pursue careers in Web 3.
I have also launched the Beauté in Tech magazine NFT and these following months phase two of the magazine will begin to roll out the Beauté in Tech DAO.

I want to thank all of you who support women in tech, believe in equal representation, and support our magazine and you, the reader.
If it weren’t for you, this wouldn't
be possible.

Two Women DAOs You Need To Know About
What is a DAO? DAOs are an effective and safe way to work with like-minded people around the globe. Think of them like an internet-native business collectively owned and managed by its members. They have built-in treasuries that no one has the authority to access without the approval of the group. Decisions are governed by proposals and voting to ensure everyone in the organization has a voice. Starting an organization with someone that involves funding and money requires a lot of trust in the people you're working with. But it's hard to trust someone you've only ever interacted with on the internet. With DAOs, you don't need to trust anyone else in the group, just the DAO's code, which is 100% transparent and verifiable by anyone. This opens up so many new opportunities for global collaboration and coordination.
BLU3 DAO (pronounced Blue DAO) empowers women, non-binary people, and allies to learn, win, and play on Web3. Those are the three mandates. That guarantees that the community can discover and develop their careers and projections in Web3 to achieve financial freedom. One of the most important goals is to grow and diversify the crypto ecosystem, focusing on a comprehensive solution that is fair and non-confrontational. This includes recruiting/onboarding, educating, and deploying the talents of women in Web3 (whether as users, consumers or leaders). They are an inclusive DAO, incorporated by women, non-binary, and trans people.
Empowering women to achieve nancial freedom through web3

H.E.R. DAO is a women-centered developer DAO that includes self-identifying women, trans women, and non-binary audiences. Long term, H.E.R. aims to become the leading launchpad for women-led blockchain ventures. Their goal is to sustainably diversify the blockchain ecosystem, leading to more versatile, holistic innovations, and increased revenue potential. “H.E.R. DAO is a concept - not a barrier. Non-binary, self-identifying people and people who identify as men are welcome.*Our harmonizing issue is that we positively affect the lives of the marginalized and elevate each other to participate in co-creating ethical futures for all.”

In summary, you can think of it as a decentralized autonomous organization with governors and contributors, plus members who are part of a group whose mission aligns with yours.
Women from Mexico, Latin America, and the United States met at a boutique hotel, took part in the Blu3dao hacker group, and competed for prizes at ETHMexico, which is part of ETHGlobal.
On the first day of arrival, on Telegram, we were all in a group chat, and it just happened that Sophia and I were arriving at the Mexico City airport at the same time.
It was time for us to ride together in a taxi to the hotel boutique, also known as the hacker house.
Upon arrival, we were greeted by two small Mexican women who were hotel attendants eager to show us our room upstairs.
We found our room and unpacked our belongings to grab something quick to eat before heading to the get-together with everyone else in the house of Blu3dao.
After returning to the house after eating a quick bite-everyone was at the welcome party with dinner and drinks. As people got to know each other and met people they already knew from previous Zoom meetings, other hackathons, and Twitter spaces, the vibe was so strong that most people thought they knew each other.
The next day was Blu3day, a special meeting, and breakfast event to share blockchain ideas and turn into a group of teams for ETHMexico.

What it’s like to live with a group of Women Hackers



The ladies arrived and met up. Blu3dao and H.E.R. DAO get together for breakfast, and both DAOs of women meet each other. There was breakfast being served, and people could meet, chat at breakfast, and later go sightseeing in the country or shopping in the local stores before ETHMexico started the next day.
Eth Global will host ETHMexico in the following two days at their venue. Here's where most will live for 24 hours to compete for prizes, bounties, and wins.

Throughout the house, the restrooms are crowded with women doing their beauty routines and putting on makeup. Exactly what Beauté in Tech magazine is all about.
Everyday you wake up and go to a hackathon and give it your all to win.

You don't lose in a contest. You either win or you learn there's no losing.
We head back home as the lights turn off, flights are booked,bags are packed and we say goodbye to a stranger with whom you shared a big ambito us task to accomplish.
Women Hackers
Every second of the day, you feel like you're home in a local place, and you've known each girl forever. The energy throughout the day makes you feel like you've known her for ages; it feels almost as if you've known them for years, but it's actually the first time for most, though it doesn't feel that way, and for many after leaving the hackathon, they become lifelong friends.
