Web3 Platform Overview
Challenges
hop.me aimed to make crypto accessible to non-technical users, but existing Web3 systems created significant barriers.
High onboarding friction
Most wallets required seed phrases, browser extensions, and technical understanding—leading to user drop-offs.
Broken crypto sharing experience
Sending crypto required both sender and receiver to have wallets, blocking viral adoption.
Complex NFT creation process
Minting NFTs involved technical steps like metadata handling, IPFS, and gas fees—making it inaccessible to creators.
Multi-chain complexity
Managing assets across Ethereum and Polygon required multiple tools and advanced knowledge.
User trust and usability gaps
New users needed a secure yet simple system that felt familiar, without compromising functionality.
Solution
Advant AI Labs designed hop.me as a Web2-like experience layered on top of blockchain infrastructure. The frontend delivers a smooth, intuitive interface while the backend handles authentication, encryption, and orchestration. Blockchain interactions are managed through smart contracts and RPC services, while AI tools power NFT generation.
Passwordless wallet onboarding
Enabled email-based login using Magic SDK, automatically creating custodial wallets without seed phrases.
Crypto-as-a-link sharing
Built a unique system where users can send crypto via encrypted, password-protected URLs.
AI-powered NFT studio
Allowed users to generate NFT artwork using AI prompts and mint directly on-chain in a few clicks.
Gas abstraction with credits
Removed gas complexity by introducing a credit-based system where transactions are handled seamlessly.
Multi-chain unified experience
Simplified asset management across Ethereum and Polygon into one dashboard.

The platform opens Web3 to a much larger audience beyond crypto-native users.
“"The team took something genuinely hard—multi-chain wallets, NFT minting, on-chain transfers—and made it feel as easy as signing up for a newsletter. The 'share a link' feature alone opens up use cases we hadn't even imagined." – Steve, Founder, hop.me
