2020 - 2021
In 2021, I led a small team of four on a mission to create SaFi, a crypto platform with a unique goal – making cryptocurrency accessible to everyone, even those with limited capital. You see, buying Bitcoin and Ethereum can be quite expensive, which often discourages folks from diving into the crypto world. Our solution? We allowed users to set up recurring purchases over time, gradually building up their crypto savings.
My role was the design and development of the user-friendly frontend application and the robust backend service. Even though the project was archived in beta testing due to regulatory challenges, SaFi was an exciting venture in our determination to make crypto more inclusive.
This is a collection of some of our explorations in the early stages. 🚀

nextjs, typescript, flutter, rest API, tailwindcss, adobe XD, figma
