AQUA Exchange

Trade Anything, By Anyone

AQUA Exchange is a mobile-first social derivatives app built on Hyperliquid that turns complex on-chain trading into simple, one-tap decisions. As the co-founder and design lead, I am responsible for the end-to-end product design — from branding and visual identity to interaction design and front-end implementation via vibe coding.

Vision

The derivatives market is massive, yet on-chain trading remains inaccessible to most people due to complex workflows, intimidating interfaces, and steep learning curves. AQUA was created to bridge this gap — making on-chain perpetual trading easy to start and easy to use for everyone.

What We Offer

Access All Markets

One-click access to on-chain derivatives across Hyperliquid/HIP-3 — crypto, tokenized stocks, metals, gaming assets and more. AQUA aggregates diverse markets into a single, unified trading experience.

Decision-Simplifying

Native social & AI features — including celebrity follow/inverse trading and agent strategies — reduce decision friction and turn discovery into action. Users don't need to be experts; they can leverage the wisdom of top traders and AI-powered strategies.

Secure & Convenient

Mobile-first design with fiat on-ramps and a social-login, no-mnemonic wallet for secure, low-friction trading. Users can get started without dealing with seed phrases or complex wallet setups.

My Role

As the design lead and co-founder, my responsibilities span across:

  • Brand & Visual Identity — Created the AQUA brand system, including logo, color palette, typography, and visual language
  • Product Design — Designed the full user journey from onboarding to trading, focusing on simplifying complex derivatives workflows
  • Mobile-First UX — Crafted an intuitive mobile trading experience that balances information density with usability
  • Social Trading Features — Designed the follow/inverse trading system and social discovery flows
