PROJECT JOURNEY
Research phase & Product discovery
We conducted face-to-face interviews with traders to gather data and uncovered key details about the decision-making behaviors of the European audience.
By analyzing the collected data, our team synthesized a list of insights and priorities for the platform design. This helped our client enter the European market with tailored customer-centric UX design.
PROJECT JOURNEY
Design system
Our design team created a design system to accommodate the needs of different age groups of the target audience. We tested multiple fonts, font sizes, contrast levels, and color schemes. We also carefully chose a large primary font size to ensure text readability for older audiences on a phone screen.

Huobi. Colors.

PROJECT JOURNEY
Day / Night mode
Day/night mode adjusts display settings for optimal visibility
in different lighting conditions.
OTC operations often require constant monitoring and updating, and users spend a lot of time on devices. We have developed two display modes for convenience.

Huobi. Two modes.
PROJECT JOURNEY
Marketing website
Artkai developed a mobile version of the platform, so the user has the ability to control their operations at any time from any location. We did not overload the interface with complex useless elements and left the design clear and structured.
