    I’m just starting out as a UI/UX designer and I’m very curious about how user experience research works in Web3. The design challenges feel very different compared to Web2.

    For example, I see a lot of wallet UX pain point umm like confusing gas fees, unclear signature requests, and transaction flows that make new users nervous. I want to move into UX research, can anyone tell me how professionals are approaching these problems.

    • How do you test and gather feedback on wallet usability or gas UX?

    • Are there frameworks or tools in Web3 UX research that are becoming standard?

    • What skills should a beginner focus on if they want to contribute to solving issues like signature clarity and onboarding friction?

    Any guidance, resources, or even examples from your own projects would mean a lot.

    If you want to start in Web3 UX research, don’t wait for a company. Begin with the tools you already use. Pick one wallet like MetaMask or Phantom. Ask 4–5 people who never used it to create a wallet and send tokens. Watch where they stop. Most will pause at gas fees or signatures. Note those exact words. Turn them into a short report or a redesign sketch.

    This will be your portfolio. It shows you can spot pain points and suggest fixes. Companies care about that more than certificates. You don’t need perfect English or big presentations. Screenshots of user flows with your notes are enough. Share them online. Recruiters in Web3 notice real research, not theory.
