Design and development of an educational crypto trading platform

Completed·started Mar 2025·finished Jun 2025

Dario is a cryptocurrency trading coach. His expertise was built in the field, through years of practice, costly mistakes, and learning. When he contacted me, he had a clear ambition: to transform this experience into a structured offering, accessible online, capable of reaching a German-speaking audience seeking serious training.

The challenge wasn't just technical. It required creating a coherent visual universe, a persuasive content architecture, and a smooth user experience: all in service of a strong value proposition.

The brief

Dario wanted a platform that reflects his positioning: human support, based on real experience, far from the hollow marketing promises that saturate the crypto sector.

The objectives were multiple:

  • Build credibility ⇢ inspire trust from the first seconds
  • Structure his training path ⇢ make the pedagogical progression visible
  • Convert visitors ⇢ naturally guide toward contact
  • Create a strong visual identity ⇢ stand out in a crowded market

Design and art direction

The design revolves around a balance between sobriety and impact. I opted for a dark, modern aesthetic, with golden accents that evoke both the world of finance and the idea of value.

Visual choices

  • Gold/silver gradients ⇢ for main action elements
  • Bold typography ⇢ clear hierarchy, optimal readability
  • Generous spacing ⇢ breathing room, clarity, fluid reading

Content architecture

The site structure follows a progressive persuasion logic. Each section answers an implicit visitor question and brings them closer to conversion.

The user journey

  1. Hook ⇢ clear promise, key figure (30 days), presentation video
  2. Credibility ⇢ number of clients (156+), stacked avatars, social proof
  3. Offering ⇢ the four detailed pillars (videos, support, community, AI)
  4. Story ⇢ Dario's journey, his failures transformed into expertise
  5. Objections ⇢ complete FAQ to remove barriers
  6. Action ⇢ multiple contact points (WhatsApp, form, booking)

Key features

WhatsApp integration

Dario's preferred communication channel is WhatsApp. I integrated direct links at several strategic locations on the site, with fixed buttons on mobile to maximize accessibility.

Dark / light mode

A toggle allows visitors to switch according to their preferences. The state is persisted in localStorage for a consistent experience between sessions.

Scroll animations

Parallax effects and progressive appearance accompany navigation, creating a dynamic experience without compromising performance.

Interactive FAQ section

A complete FAQ answers the most frequent questions: prerequisites, duration, methodology, guarantees. Each answer is designed to remove a potential barrier to conversion.

Skills mobilized

  • Art direction ⇢ creation of a coherent visual identity
  • UX/UI Design ⇢ information architecture, conversion path
  • Copywriting ⇢ persuasive writing adapted to the German-speaking target
  • Web development ⇢ integration, animations, interactive features
  • Digital strategy ⇢ conversion optimization, user journey

The IbraDeFi project illustrates my ability to support a client from A to Z in creating their online presence. Beyond the technical aspects, this project required a deep understanding of positioning, target audience, and persuasion mechanisms specific to this sector. ₿
