Engagement

Yours is a blockchain-based news marketplace for paid, pay-per-read journalism.

We redesigned it as a legacy web interface, covering UX, UI, and a custom icon set without touching code or branding. The product needed a visual refresh within its existing legacy constraints — and the redesign delivered a modernised interface without a rebuild.

Pay-Per-Article Reading Flow

Article reader for a crypto news marketplace, where paragraphs remain locked mid-story until readers unlock them with a microtransaction. Voting, tipping, and a comment field turn every read into a micro-transaction.

Creator Studio for Paid Posts

Publishing form for this pay-per-content platform splits free and paid text, sets a purchase price, and tags content by community. The linked profile tracks posts, comments, and bookmarks in one account panel.

Tip Button and Crypto Wallet Flow

A widget generates an embeddable tip button for external sites, funded via a Bitcoin Cash QR deposit. Sellers track balance, payouts, and tip history from a merchant profile.

Icon Set for Reading and Tipping

Custom icon set for this crypto news marketplace covers lock and unlock states for paywalled paragraphs, plus login, checkmark, and link glyphs. Two isometric illustrations depict content creation and coin-based tipping.

If a full rebuild isn't on the table but the interface can't stay as it is, a design-only refresh within your constraints is a real option.
