Senior Product Designer @ AKQA
2018 - 19
Led design of the first platform for NFT collectors and creators, unifying wallet tracking, market signals, and community all in one platform.
Approach
To start, we needed to get our users quickly onboarded and connected to other collectors and creators.
Onboarding
Building your network from zero → connected, with a rich curated, feed from day one.
Key Design Decisions

• Bulk follow options gets users to 20-30+ connections easily and instantly.
• The result = rich content customized to you from day one.
