Fit

Who we work best with in web3, crypto and DeFi

A good fit if

  • Funded DeFi protocols and blockchain banks

  • Crypto products that want mainstream users

  • Stealth teams that need a brand and a deck

Probably not a fit if

  • Not a fit: Token launches looking for hype campaigns or paid promotion
  • Not a fit: NFT collections and memecoins
  • Not a fit: Teams looking for legal opinions on securities or licensing

Sound familiar?

Every new user asks one question: what happens to my money if it goes wrong?

Web3 teams tend to lose people before the first deposit. If a few of these sound like you, this page is for you.

  • Newcomers don’t understand what your product does with their money.

    Yield, collateral, minting and bridges mean nothing to most people. We explain where the money goes in a few clear steps, with detail one click away.

  • Your brand is neon gradients and 3D coins, like everyone else’s.

    We build brands that feel as dependable as a bank and still belong in the space, as we did for N3XT.

  • People stop at the wallet step.

    Connecting, signing and paying fees all come before any value. We explain each request in plain words and show what will happen before it happens.

  • Nobody reads your risk disclosures.

    We design risk statements people actually read, next to the action they relate to, in the wording your counsel approves.

  • Funds and retail users want different answers from the same site.

    Funds want mechanics, reserves and audits; retail users want to know if it is safe and simple. We give each a clear path.

  • Your site talks to people who already know crypto.

    We write for the newcomer first and keep the depth for experts one click away.

    A token designed to hold a steady value, usually one US dollar, backed by reserves or kept stable by an on-chain mechanism.

  • Synthetic dollar

    A dollar-pegged token kept stable by a strategy, such as hedged crypto positions, rather than by cash held in a bank.

  • Smart contract audit

    An independent review of a protocol’s code for vulnerabilities, before and after launch.

    A bank that holds customer deposits in full instead of lending them out.

  • Self-custody

    When users hold their own private keys, so no company can move their funds.

FAQs

Web3 design questions, answered

Adrian

Still deciding? Ask us directly.

What does a web3 design agency do?

It designs the brand, website and product for blockchain-based companies, with extra care for what is unique to crypto: explaining the mechanics, wallet flows, risk disclosures and proof of reserves or audits.

We have done this for N3XT, a full-reserve blockchain bank, and for Ethena, the synthetic dollar protocol behind USDe.

How do you make a DeFi product easy to understand?

Start from what the user gets and what they risk, then show how the money moves in three or four steps. Keep protocol terms for the second layer, and explain every wallet prompt before it appears.

Do you design wallet connection and onboarding flows?

Yes. We design onboarding, wallet connection, deposits, staking and withdrawals, with clear states for pending, confirmed and failed transactions, so people always know where their money is.

What should a crypto website say about risk and regulation?

Clear risk statements next to the actions they relate to, the company’s registration and licenses, and who may use the product.

Your counsel sets the wording; we make sure it is readable and visible where it matters.

How long does web3 product design take?

N3XT went from idea to MVP launch in 3 months, with the brand, product, website and investor story delivered within 6 months. A website refresh on its own usually takes six to ten weeks.

Do you work under NDA with teams in stealth?

Yes. We joined N3XT while it was still in stealth, and we are used to working under NDA before a protocol or product is announced.

Is web3 design different from fintech design?

They share the trust problem, so the craft overlaps. Web3 adds wallets, self-custody, smart contract risk and an audience split between crypto natives and newcomers.

Our fintech page covers regulated payments and banking products.
