    Cointime News: JuCoin CEO Sammi Li delivered a keynote speech at the TOKEN2049 conference, analyzing the current challenges in user experience (UX) design in the cryptocurrency industry. Sammi Li believes that the existing encryption product experience fails to effectively empathize with users, often leading to usage anxiety, which hinders the large-scale adoption of Web3. Combining her rich experience in the luxury goods industry, she emphasizes that building trust relies on paying attention to user emotions and critical moments of interaction, and constructing it through details rather than simply technical presentations.

It calls on the encryption industry to think together and place user experience at a more core position.
