Crypto wallet UX, designed by someone who's actually shipped one.

What I focus on in crypto UX.

• Send / receive flows

  Multi-step money flows broken into single-decision screens. Recipient and amount on one step, network and memo on the next, an explicit review sheet before signing — chosen over the all-on-one-screen pattern that reads badly under stress.

• Network identity always near the amount

  A network badge that sits within glance-distance of every balance and transaction. Different chains, different totals — surfacing chain identity inline cuts the most common confusion in crypto UIs at the root.

• Transaction states

  Pending → confirming → confirmed → failed. Tabular figures so amounts don't reflow mid-update; status reads as the answer to the question the user came in with.

• Gas-fee comprehension

  Most wallets display gas as a raw number. I write it as "this transaction will cost roughly $X to send" — with the breakdown one tap away for the user who wants it.

• Web3 onboarding for the crypto-curious

  Designed for the user who's two months into crypto, not the user with a Ledger on their desk. Plain language at the boundary, never inline; explain WHY before HOW; keep the surface readable without dumbing the product down.

• Recoverable vs irreversible UX

  Crypto is unforgiving — once you sign, it's gone. I design recoverable mistakes (typo in amount, wrong contact) with light confirms, irreversible ones (sending to wrong address) with an explicit confirm sheet — Nielsen's error-prevention heuristic applied at the source.

One product, two surfaces — same components, different composition.

A crypto product that lives on phones and on the web has to feel like one product — same hierarchy, same density grammar, same trust signals — even though the screen sizes invite very different layouts. Most crypto UIs fail this on first principles.

From Enrichplay: I built the system before the screens — tokens, components, and patterns that scale. Two density tokens (mobile vs web) carried the breakpoint difference. The components stay identical between mobile and web; what changes is what sits next to them.

How to work together on crypto.

Three engagements — a Sprint for a single flow (send, receive, onboarding) or a wallet UX audit, a Full Project for end-to-end wallet design, or a Retainer for an ongoing crypto product.

Crypto-specific questions.

• Do you understand smart contracts?+

  Enough to design for them. I can read Solidity at a "what does this function do" level, work with engineering to surface contract states in UI, and design for ERC-20 / ERC-721 / ERC-1155 patterns. I'm not a smart-contract auditor — pair me with one for the contract design.

• Custodial vs non-custodial design considerations?+

  Very different. Custodial = treat it like a fintech app (account recovery via email, customer support). Non-custodial = the user IS the bank — every UX decision multiplied by 10x because there's no support to bail them out. I've shipped both.

• How do you design for first-time crypto users?+

  I design for the user who is two months into crypto, not the user with a Ledger on their desk. That means defaults that hide chain selection, plain-language gas copy ("this transaction will cost roughly $X to send"), and a review sheet before any signature. Send flows get chunked into single-decision screens — not because the all-on-one-screen layout doesn't fit, but because money flows read badly under stress.

• Web3 + Web2 hybrid apps?+

  Common pattern. The trick is hiding the Web3 layer from users who don't care (sign-in with email, paymaster covers gas) while exposing it to power users who do. I've designed dual-mode UX where the same screen serves both audiences.

• Do you do NFT marketplace UX?+

  Some patterns transfer from gallery-style ecommerce — see Painted Juttay, where every product is one-of-one and the IA had to read as a small gallery rather than a generic grid. I haven't shipped a full NFT marketplace end-to-end, so I'll be upfront on scoping if it's a stretch.

• How long does a wallet redesign take?+

  A focused redesign of a single flow (recovery, onboarding, send) is 2-3 weeks. End-to-end wallet design (everything from onboarding to settings) is 6-10 weeks. I scope per-project after the discovery call.
