Helping Users trade without Fear in a Risky Market

Overview

Crypto token trading is terrifying for most people. The market moves fast, tokens collapse overnight, and rug pulls are common. Alan AI helps users navigate that risk, not by pretending it doesn't exist, but by giving them the tools to make informed decisions.
You can buy, sell, and create tokens. Track performance. And when you're unsure, an AI chatbot flags risky coins, suggests promising ones, and walks you through decisions in real time.

Role

UX Designer

The Problem

Crypto attracts two types of people: the ones who know exactly what they're doing, and the ones who are one bad decision away from losing everything. The second group is bigger. They want in on the market, but they don't know how to read charts, identify scams, or time their moves. Most crypto apps assume you already know all of this. If you don't, you're on your own.

Design Decisions

Visual hierarchy for fast decisions
I made sure the most important information, price movement, buy/sell actions, alerts, was always the easiest thing to see. Color coding for gains (green) and losses (red) is standard, I kept it consistent across every screen so users didn't have to relearn the interface as they moved around.
Trust through transparency
People are skeptical of anything that tells them what to buy. The chatbot doesn't pretend to have all the answers. When it flags a token as risky, it explains what triggered the warning. The transparency is the feature, users trust it more when they understand how it's thinking.
Three taps to trade
Buy or sell in three steps: select token, enter amount, confirm. Fast enough for the market, clear enough to avoid mistakes.
Token creation without technical knowledge
Creating a token walks you through naming, supply, and deployment. Simple enough to feel accessible, detailed enough to show what's actually happening.

What I Learned

Fear isn't something you eliminate in design, you manage it. The app doesn't hide risk. It helps users navigate it themselves.
Simplicity matters most when stress is high. When someone's deciding whether to sell during a crash, a cluttered interface or confusing flow costs them money.
AI works when it's honest. The chatbot doesn't predict the future. It reads data, spots patterns, and surfaces what matters. That honesty builds trust.

Impact

Reduced the steps to buy or sell to 3 taps.
AI chatbot flags risky tokens in real time.
Token creation accessible to non-technical users.
Portfolio and performance visible at a glance.
