@ankit_a Thanks for the valuable support, we aim to make it more seamless so that Brew is the first thing people think when they about DeFi.
@ikozlov Thanks for your kind comments, All credits to our senpai designer @nandita_d 😄
Got to know about this launch through @shradha_mehta1 . To beign with, I love how well-designed and simple the app UX and flow is (Kudos to @archisman_das and team), and the fact that there is self-custody of assets, which obviously - as people are becoming more and more aware of - is really important given the whole FTX situation.
One key point of feedback I'd like to share is that one of the goals is to make "DeFi simpler" and I totally agree you've taken steps in that direction. However, as someone who watched the whole 3 minute intro, and having cursory knowledge of AAVE protocol / Matic, I felt crippled by how much know-how I should know before actually using the app. So, there's really a couple ways you could think about it. (A) Also provide a layer of knowledge / learning for people who don't know what AAVE is or why it matters (and ofcourse how staking works + how am I even getting these returns?) (B) Make it even simpler and say "get upto 6% APY" but save the details for users who actually care about it (In this case, it will be important to highlight the risks of these type of investments / staking upfront, especially since it is self-hosted).
I like Coinbase's approach which has a bit of both (A) and (B) above for their own staking pools.
Good luck and rooting for the team!
@shradha_mehta1 @archisman_das @puneet_kohli Hey Puneet! Thank you for your kind words. The idea has been to make it super simple for anyone to invest in DeFi and with self-custody.
I completely agree the education part needs to be highlighted. At the moment, when a user clicks on AAVE or Matic, the screen that pops up has information on what is AAVE/Stader, what are the risks, and the faqs.
We will keep on improving as DeFi is constantly evolving.
Thank you for your feedback Puneet!
@puneet_kohli Glad you like the simplicity and design of the app. And big thanks for the constructive feedback Puneet! Really appreciate you taking the time to do that. We'll keep those points in mind as we go forward.

Hello Producthunt,
Everyone at Brew is very excited to be here today!
At Brew, we firmly believe in "Not your keys, not your Crypto."
And our engineering team takes it a notch further by providing you with a wallet with Private Key Sharding i.e. a part of your private key is linked to your phone number and email ID.
With Key Sharding, only you're in control of your wallet. And yet you have the additional comfort of thoughtlessly storing your keys anywhere! Knowing that if someone steals it they will not be able to use it without access to your phone number and email ID.
Our engineering team does all of these while maintaining compatibility with most tier-one wallets like MetaMask, Trust Wallet, etc — means you can export your private keys from Brew and migrate your wallet to MetaMask anytime.
Your keys, your Crypto!
Looking forward to your support and feedback.
@saifrkhaan Exactly! This is what the future of financial services will look like :)
@saifrkhaan Absolutely, Brew is a self-custodial wallet. You are the true owner of your assets!
@robertgavriles1 Really glad you liked the design, any element you like way too much or something that caught your eyes? 😄 Also, credits to our design senpai @nandita_d
@robertgavriles1 Hey Robert! Yes getting a lot of feedback on the design :)
It's all Nandita! @nandita_d you rock!
@robertgavriles1 @nandita_d @vishal_godhwani Awesome! Thanks for the feedback, Robert. Hope you met Buck?
What a great proposition! "Only you control your crypto. We don't have access to move your funds."
Count me in!
@santoshpanda Thanks for your kind comments, Self-Custody of assets is the dire need of the hour & we have built Brew truly abiding the ethos of decentralization. Hope you enjoy using Brew! 😄
