The brief
Traders on Discord and Telegram deal with people they’ve never met. Zeus has both sides post a bond, the payment moves directly between them, and disputes go to an arbitrator named when the deal is created.
The product had to make an unusual idea feel simple, and let people start a deal without leaving the chat they were already in.
We worked on every part of it, not only the website: the product design, the web app, the Discord and Telegram bots, and the developer documentation.
