How it started

In November 2022 the Wallet Scrutiny project was introduced to the Bitcoin design Community. They are a small team producing an extensive amount of work and are on a mission to improve their website and increase their reach in the ecosystem. The Bitcoin Design community kicked off a redesign process with the project to help them reach their goals. The overarching goal was to redesign the website with the goal of improving the user experience.

Just a small change right off the top:

Wallet Scrutiny is a small team producing an extensive amount of work....

The "They" was confusing to me. Didn't if it was referring to Wallet Scrutiny or BDC.

Thank you. Edited this in the latest copy update.

What does Wallet Scrutiny do?

Wallet Scrutiny is a website that helps everyday bitcoin users verify whether or not their wallet is truly open-sourced and secure. They aim to improve the security of all bitcoin wallets by open sourcing the evaluation of their source code. They do this by focusing on the reproducibility of wallets, which ensures that the wallet a regular user uses actually matches with the code published online.

For clarity....

Wallet Scrutiny is a website that helps everyday bitcoin users verify whether their chosen wallet is truly open-sourced and secure. They do this by focusing on the reproducibility of wallets, ensuring the code published online actually matches an end user's wallet. Through evaluating and verifying the source code of various wallets, Wallet Scrutiny aims to raise the bar in quality for all Bitcoin wallets.

  1. Baseline testing

We started off by looking at the current user experience. To understand how people were using the website, we decided to sit down with them and provide them with a task to complete on the website itself. This would reveal the main friction points in the website as well as how the website is used by people. To do this we decided to do some usability testing.

Usability tests were done with 5 people, wallet security was important to every person that was interviewed. We rallied in the help of the bitcoin design community and scheduled calls. We then shared the research findings with the team.

My attempt at cleaning up and combining some ideas for clarity--

We began by examining the existing user experience on the website. To gain insights into user interactions, we conducted usability tests where participants were given specific tasks to complete on the site. This approach helped us identify key friction points and understand how users typically navigate the website.

We interviewed five individuals, all of which found the concept of Wallet Scrutiny useful. Their responses, combined with various feedback from the Bitcoin design community's perspective, resulted in useful insights moving forward.

Looking good. Just a few minor tweaks, per comments.

Small thing is to update the next button on the payjoin page, and the previous button on the resources page to point to this new page.

No biggy, but I find the mobile header image nicer, where the screenshot is straight and you can more easily see what's in it.

Thank you for the review. Hopefully addressed all these in the last commit. It's ready for another review.
