Crypthusiast is a social network platform designed for cryptocurrency enthusiasts to exchange multiple cryptocurrencies within minutes. Computools helped them build a powerful social network with market forecasting and engaging tools, and they streamlined crypto management for profitable user experiences.
The client, Crypthusiast, is a company that provides a platform for cryptocurrency exchange with elements of social networking. They sought to create a platform where users can exchange over 150 cryptocurrencies quickly and engage in discussions about the subject. They aimed to attract a global community of crypto-enthusiasts. With a dedicated CEO, product owner, subject matter expert, and marketing team, Crypthusiast aimed to establish a thriving social network for cryptocurrency enthusiasts worldwide.
The client experienced challenges initiating the user acquisition process and executing an effective marketing campaign to launch a social network from scratch. Additionally, designing a system that allows users to forecast price dynamics and track the accuracy of their predictions required extensive development efforts. Integrating various tools for cryptocurrency exchange, data sources, and news analysis from diverse sources further added to the complexity. The client team needed an expert CTO to fulfill these tasks.
Computools provided the client with a CTO as a service and a tech team that worked closely with the client for social network software development and addressed these challenges. Our expert CTO successfully created a roadmap to an engaging network with tools that attracted active user participation. He was also responsible for developing a signal system, enabling users to receive reliable market forecasts and monetise their predictions. A comprehensive set of tools was designed to assist users while providing functionality for companies to leverage the system.
