Yorkseed Expert Session: Why User Experience is the Missing Piece in Many Crypto Trading Platforms
This event is part of Yorkseed Expert Series.
Join us for a tactical session for founders and builders in the crypto and Web3 space.
While many crypto trading platforms focus on speed, security, and technical innovation, too often they overlook a critical factor: user experience. In this session, we’ll explore why UX is the missing piece in many platforms—and how improving it can lead to stronger user adoption, trust, and long-term growth.
Whether you're launching a new exchange, building DeFi tools, or refining your protocol, this session will help you connect the dots between usability, brand credibility, and product-market fit. We'll cover actionable strategies to align design thinking with business outcomes—and make your crypto product truly user-centric.
Led by Mike Vitez, co-founder of Saturnia Design, where he helps startups and Web3 projects bring their ideas to life through smart product strategy and seamless user experience. With a background in both business and tech, Mike has worked with clients ranging from early-stage founders to funded scale-ups, combining design thinking with go-to-market clarity.
