How UX Design Simplified Crypto Complexity for EQ Dashboard?
The EQ Dashboard project presented a unique challenge: making the intricate world of cryptocurrency accessible to both novice and experienced users. Our team tackled this by creating a user-centric design that balances simplicity with powerful functionality. The result is a customizable dashboard that offers clear visualizations, educational resources, and advanced trading tools, all wrapped in a modern, trustworthy aesthetic dominated by deep blues and greens.

- 2. How can we reduce the cognitive load and anxiety associated with crypto investments?
- 3. How can we provide both novice and experienced users with the tools they need in an intuitive interface?
- 4. User Pain Areas: The case study should have explicitly identified user pain points, for example:
Research Methodology
