Product for Nimiq
Nimiq set out to make crypto and self-custody more approachable. We helped them build a product people could bank on. Without the bank.

Nimiq is an open-source blockchain ecosystem working towards something crypto has long promised: making it genuinely useful as everyday money.
Self-custody asks people to think differently about their money. Our role was to make that shift feel calm and deliberate, giving users the confidence to trust both the product and themselves.
Login fileRather than hiding the responsibility that comes with self-custody, the interface guides users through it step by step.
Technical stuffDark screens signal moments that require extra attention. As the experience becomes more technical, clear visuals and explainer graphics help users understand unfamiliar concepts without feeling overwhelmed.
Full interfaceClear hierarchy keeps the interface easy to navigate. The left sidebar holds the essentials, the center shows all accounts and the right panel shows the relevant details. At the time, the experience was designed desktop-first to suit the technology available.
Keeping the unfamiliar familiar, we reduced the learning curve wherever we could. Familiar language, established interactive patterns and clear hierarchy made Nimiq easy to adopt.
Decentralization is difficult to trust when it feels abstract. By visualizing the network of Nimiq users and simplifying staking, we made the invisible easier to understand and helped visitors see the transfers in action.
WorldmapBorrowing the hexagon from the logo, the map visualizes Nimiq’s global network and reminds users they’re part of something big.
StakingStaking lets users take a more active role in the network. We simplified the experience and introduced the Trust Score to help them make confident decisions.
With Nimiq, we created a product that is trustworthy in its simplicity. Helping turn crypto agnostics into self-custody believers.
