1) Use Case 1: From Crypto Newbie to On-Chain Investor

— Tom’s Learning Journey

Tom is a Web2 product manager who recently became interested in crypto investing. However, the overwhelming jargon, mixed-quality information, and complex tools left him feeling lost.

With TradeTide, Tom embarks on a guided journey combining AI-driven instruction, hands-on simulation, and risk awareness coaching:

• Adaptive Onboarding: Through conversational assessments, TradeTide identifies Tom’s knowledge level and investment preferences, curating a progressive learning path. Materials include visual summaries of the Bitcoin whitepaper, short videos explaining CeFi vs. DeFi, and interactive NFT-based learning flashcards.

• Simulated Practice: After grasping foundational concepts, Tom enters a sandbox environment to simulate real trading on platforms like Uniswap and Aave. TradeTide provides real-time alerts on risks such as slippage, liquidity traps, or excessive gas costs.

• Skill Certification & Progression: As Tom advances, he earns on-chain “Learning Credential NFTs” that unlock advanced content and real strategy building. TradeTide personalizes recommendations and risk alerts based on Tom’s simulated behavior.

• Frictionless First Investment: Equipped with both knowledge and confidence, Tom executes his first real DeFi trade — fully guided by TradeTide in a code-free, user-friendly flow.

Ultimately, Tom not only mastered the core knowledge of DeFi but also established a clear risk boundary. His first on-chain investment was also guided by TradeTide, with the entire process being no-code and barrier-free.
