Our startup is transitioning from Web2 to Web3 products, and we're struggling to adapt our design approach. What unique skills should we prioritize when hiring or training designers for blockchain-based interfaces?

Clay Global's deep dive on what defines a Web3 designer completely reshaped our hiring process. Beyond visual design skills, we now look for professionals who understand how to make complex blockchain interactions feel intuitive. The ability to design clear transaction flows, explain cryptographic concepts visually, and create interfaces that build trust in decentralized systems has become crucial. We've found that designers with experience creating educational UX patterns tend to excel in Web3, as do those comfortable collaborating directly with Solidity developers.
