Crypto built for traders, navigable by newcomers.

The story

How it came together.

Problem

Crypto can be intimidating for first-timers and shallow for veterans. Most platforms pick one side. Bridging both means careful product design across exploration, trading, custody connection, and discovery, without dumbing the experience down.

Approach

WalletConnect for letting users bring their own wallets, Pinata/IPFS for content-addressed metadata, a Node/MongoDB backend exposing GraphQL via Apollo for portfolio and trading flows, all behind a UI tested with both seasoned crypto users and people opening their first wallet.

Outcome

A trusted platform that lets users explore, invest, and engage with digital assets — built to serve veterans and first-timers from the same interface, without dumbing things down for either side.

What people said

Product Reviews.

Honest takes from people who actually use the product.

Marcus K.

Day trader

I've used four crypto wallets and Puchooo is the first one where I could find the trading flow without a tutorial. WalletConnect integration is seamless.

Lina H.

Brought my partner onto crypto with this app. She didn't need me to walk her through it, which is unprecedented in this space.

Robert C.

Trader, 8 months

Portfolio view is fast, the GraphQL backend feels snappy, and I haven't hit a single bug in a month of daily use.

Sara O.

Metadata hosted on IPFS is a quiet feature that matters. I can verify what I own without trusting the app to be the truth.
