MetaMask x HOPR: First UX Hackathon in Web3

Although the experience of using crypto has completely transformed from just a few years ago, few would say that it’s simple! Developers have rightly identified that good UX design is a crucial factor in onboarding more people to crypto, particularly less technical users. However, this development has often come at the expense of a crucial feature: privacy.

But a recent UX hackathon in Zurich, Switzerland aimed to change all that. Hosted by Swiss privacy project HOPR in collaboration with crypto giants ConsenSys and Metamask, the event brought together dozens of UX designers to design ways to implement strong data and metadata privacy directly into Metamask wallets, all in a way which regular users can understand. This was the first hackathon of its kind in the crypto space, and it marks a very welcome shift in focus for Metamask, the most popular wallet provider in DeFi.
