Increasing the use of Trading

The live version of Portfolio follows a neobank approach to user behavior.

Web2 users are our target audience. It gives them a pattern they are already used to, so they work with blockchain without effort.

Portfolio
through time

The wallet’s page and a token’s page, from the live version back to the first.

The main flows people use to move and trade tokens were inspired by one philosophy: the movement of assets.

An asset can be anything from ETFs, stocks, bonds and money to crypto.

Send flow

Send and Bridge start from the same address field, on the idea that the token’s destination is known: either your own account or a known external account.

  1. Select destination network

    The address exists on more than one network: each is listed, with a warning to choose with care.

Sending to, with an address entered: Select destination network, then Arbitrum, Base and Ethereum Mainnet, and a warning that sending to the wrong network can result in the loss of funds

Trade flow

Trade and Buy share a simplified version of the Send and Bridge flow, since the accounts are intrinsically known: a user can only trade or buy from, and for, their own account.

  1. Token to buy

    Framing the token as a purchase makes the whole of the Trade and Buy flows compatible, and easier to use for a Web2 audience.

Trade: SWEAT as the token to buy, 0 USD, a button reading Select token & amount to buy, and a number pad

Creating components from an understanding of intention, a shared mental model and the philosophy of transacting and moving assets made them easier to map out, implement and maintain for the long term.

Reflection

Sometimes adapting an elemental concept, like the movement of assets, gives a better multiplier than trying to invent new patterns from scratch.
