Project Overview

Bitxe is a conceptual cryptocurrency trading platform designed for both beginner and experienced crypto traders. The goal was to create a clean, modern, and intuitive interface that simplifies crypto trading while displaying real-time market data. The app focuses on fast onboarding, easy portfolio management, and a smooth buy/sell experience.

Design Process

Research & Competitor Analysis

I studied popular crypto trading apps like Coinbase, Binance, and WazirX. The focus was to identify industry-standard UX patterns, common user pain points, and best practices for financial data visualization.

User Flow Mapping

I defined clear user journeys:

  • Transaction history review

Wireframing

Created low-fidelity wireframes to map out the app structure and main features before moving into the visual design stage.
