Introduction

And just like that, we’re already a quarter through the year!

The past few months have been a period of some of the biggest changes you’ve seen on our platform so far—with significant updates spanning design, product, and content. These changes are rooted in our core mission to build an intuitive place for users both old and new to learn, explore, and succeed in web3.

We’ve spent weeks reimagining what it’s like to experience web3 from the user’s perspective, and we’ve honed in on what makes our platform unique.

Discovery in web3 and crypto is broken, and we’re on a mission to fix it.

Q1: Upgrading the Quest Experience

As the best place for anyone to start their web3 journey, we wanted to completely redefine what it meant to be a user exploring web3 through our platform. We often heard from our community that previous Quests felt like a checklist of tasks they had to complete—a chore, not an experience.

With our new Product Designer Greg onboard, we spent weeks overhauling the platform and conducting in-depth user research to create a more immersive and engaging “Quest and Platform Experience.”

As a result, everything ranging from how you discover Quests to the experience of completing Quests themselves has been completely reimagined:

• 🏡 New Homepage with refreshed card designs and carousels, improved content organization, and a new personalized sidebar

• 🖼️ Collections to better organize our growing library of Quests

• 🏷️ Categories to help you find the Quests that are relevant to you, initially corresponding with major ecosystems and chains

• ⛓️ Chains, difficulty tags, and rewards displayed directly on Quest pages

• 🎥 Interactive multimedia components such as video in Quests and context cards for a more immersive Quest flow

But wait! That’s not all….

It’s been a packed three months, and we shipped a looooot! With our February offsite in Joshua Tree, we were able to catalyze a creative (and restorative) experience for the entire team.

We’ve released some long-anticipated features like multi-wallet support, scored some major ecosystem wins like providing support for Cosmos, Sequence Wallet, and Brave, and fostered amazing partnerships with companies like Slingshot, Trader Joe, Brave, and Gnosis Chain.

Throughout all this, we’ve also continuously focused on curating the best protocols across web3 for you to learn, discover, and explore!
