    hey there, can anyone guide me?

    I am looking to make the shift to web3 UIUX designer, I have been doing website designing for quite a long time, around 7 years now. still my work might not be appealing for blockchain products and websites.

    If I wish to prepare a good portfolio best for web3 industry? which areas should i focus on like defi, NFTs, wallets etc.

    umm, i have good hand on Sketch and figma but still should i highlight Web3.js, solidity in my CV though i am not a developer.

    If anyone has made this transition i am looking for a protip how you convinced you are best fit for their web3 product requirements?

    Building a blockchain UI/UX portfolio requires focus on relevant projects, practical tools, and clear presentation. Follow these steps to create a portfolio that grabs attention and ranks high in search results:

    Top Projects to Showcase

    1. Select projects that demonstrate your ability to simplify blockchain experiences. Prioritize designs for crypto wallets, DeFi platforms, NFT marketplaces, and dApps. Focus on real-world problems like user onboarding, transaction flows, and wallet recovery systems. If you lack live projects, craft redesigns of popular blockchain apps to highlight usability improvements.

    Best Tools for Blockchain UI/UX Design

    1. Use industry-standard tools like Figma, Sketch, and Adobe XD for design. Create interactive prototypes with InVision or Marvel. Incorporate blockchain-specific tools like Web3modal, WalletConnect, or Ethers.js to display technical understanding in mockups.

    2. Portfolio Structure That Works

    Organize your portfolio with these elements:

    1. Problem: Define the specific blockchain challenge (e.g., improving DeFi dashboard usability).
    2. Solution: Show your design, supported by user research or UX principles.
    3. Outcome: Add interactive prototypes or walkthroughs to showcase results visually.

    Must-Have Skills and Insights

    1. Highlight blockchain expertise, including decentralization, smart contracts, and crypto accessibility. Emphasize how your designs solve pain points for new users, improving clarity and trust in blockchain systems.

    2. Resources to Level Up Your Portfolio

    3. Explore top portfolios on Dribbble and Behance for inspiration. Read books like Designing Blockchain Products by Alexandra Kassis.

    4. Enroll in courses like UX Design for Blockchain Applications on Coursera to deepen your skills.

    An optimized blockchain UI/UX portfolio shows your problem-solving ability and practical knowledge, positioning you as a strong candidate in this growing field.
