Streamlined crypto-currency trading platform
Design and development of a simple and secure platform enabling cryptocurrency trading and portfolio monitoring, anytime and anywhere.
Challenge
To create a platform providing a quick and easy way for novices and professionals to manage crypto assets that banks could integrate with their systems and provide as an additional service.
Approach
After a comprehensive review of the user needs, we developed a powerful but intuitive platform that enables both trading and active management of a crypto portfolio.
Sector
Crypto Trading, Finance
Solution
Cryptocurrencies, based on Blockchain technologies, have the potential to make a huge impact on the future of the world economy, and this makes them attractive to investors. While analysts dramatically diverge on their opinion of the ultimate value of the core tech, one thing is certain: cryptocurrency is not a “magic word” that guarantees profits. People interested in this market need to be empowered with the tools to be successful at managing their activity in this area.
By developing a trading platform with functionality that slices through the fog and complexity of this fast-moving and fast-changing marketplace, we enable users to focus on the analysis and management of their cryptocurrency accounts. Banks can integrate this solution to deliver a tailored crypto investment experience to their current clients and new clients they can attract with this offering.
Developing a Solution
We kicked off with a comprehensive evaluation designed to analyze the needs, motivations, and goals for the cryptocurrency trading project. More specifically, we wanted to understand how we could build a trading platform that could solve problems for the prototypical crypto user:
-
What motivates people to invest in cryptocurrency?
-
When choosing an exchange platform, what are the key challenges?
-
What are the tools that users need to start trading?
-
Which tools could help start investors?
