What's new since the last PH launch?
Jaco Koenig
@swaldy Do you mean since the first launch 6 months ago? The app is completely revamped from a design and utility perspective and most of the functionalities we stated above are new!
Spencer Walden
@jacobo_koenig2 I think I got confused by product hunt my bad. If I click "See Doshi ’s previous launch →" at the top of this page, it makes it look like its the same launch again as the product is updated.

Congratulations on the launch! This is pretty cool. I've just installed the app and going to play around a bit. But wow, it is a well built, beautiful app! Love the aesthetics used. As an AI enthusiast particularly in love with the NFT creator. It does such a good job. Curious of this was based off OpenAI's Dall-E API or some other API?
Jaco Koenig
@sasank Thank you so much Sasank! It's a different methodology but same underlying system for generative AI.

Where is the private key located?
Jaco Koenig
@renato_shira Its slighly hard to explain in comments. We only allow the private key to be shown to advanced users to ensure its not misplaced or subject to scams. This is not an issue in case the wallet is reset, as we can **non-custodially** reproduce the private key with your web2 login. It's a very cool innovation in the space, we belive!

Although I'm an adult this was useful for me to get a gentle intro to crypto wallets
Neel Popat
Love this! Gave this a try and the UX is super clean and well put together. Good luck folks and needed in the space!
Daniel Rose
@neelpopat thanks Neel, that means a lot to us! Solving for UX is our top priority!

This is a super interesting concept, great job. I have a couple of questions; if you are so kind to tell me more about the following: Question 0: is this the right channel to engage with you guys or do you have any social media or discord channel for example. 1. What is your target audience? Is it especially for kids (+13) or not necessarily? And why did you decide to go in this direction? 2. What is your business model? 3. Is there or will be a 'family' membership? (e.g., including parental control just to name one potential feature). 4. Are you already in the market? When can I start using it?!! 5. How can we help? What are you looking for? beta users, investment....? If I have more questions, I'd probably ask again, but this is all for now. Thanks in advance, and keep up the hard work. I love it already!
Jaco Koenig
@ruperto_calatrava We have a discord and intercom channels on both the website and app. Here's our Discord link: https://discord.gg/8NgrUsaw 1. We are open for everyone, but we mainly we want to allow people over 13 safe access to the ecosystem. They are one of the most motivated groups of people, but also one of the most underserved! 2. We're 100% free for the time being. We might opt in the future to gamify the experience and offer paid customisations and such, but don't want to close the doors to anyone by asking for payment of any kind at this point. 3. Yes!! Keep your eyes open. Coming soon! 4. Yes sir. Visit our site or app store links in this page. 5. Feedback of any kind is massively helpful!! Thank you so much for your insightful questions.

Very nice and important tool to offer to kids and teens. Teaching kids about this makes the whole ecosystem safer and bigger
Jaco Koenig
@ahmad_sghaier Thank you for getting it! That's exactly the point: Education == Safety

Congratulations on the launch of Doshi, the first web3 wallet for 13+! 🚀 I'm so happy to see a product in the market that makes it easier for younger people to learn, invest, and play safely in the web3 ecosystem. We love the features you've built, like the ability to create real crypto wallets and NFTs using AI, as well as the opportunity to learn and earn crypto and NFTs in the academy. Super proud of team Doshi. The product journey has been amazing to watch unravel over the months 🚀 Keep up the fantastic work! #ToTheMoon @jacobo_koenig2 @daniel_rose2
Daniel Rose
@scott_ashley_whiteley1 thank you so much, we are excited about our NFT proposition, this is really just the beginning! NFTs will become a lot more social and interactive in our upcoming launches :)
Samuel Akinin
Congratulations! Look forward to using the platform to test my risk appetite and improve my investment criteria #TeamDoshi 🚀
Daniel Rose
Thanks @samuel_akinin! Please check out our Fantasy Trading feature, we would love to get your feedback!
Sebastian Schwelle
Very cool project!
Jaco Koenig
@schwelle Thank you so much
Willem D.
Great stuff! Doshi looks like an awesome wallet that could be great for kids to use. The first time I used a ledger to safeguard my crypto I felt like a CIA agent, always felt it should feel more like a simple neo-banking app. Keep it up team!
Jaco Koenig
@marapu haha can't say that feeling wasn't nice at the time! But we're definitely up for a refreshed UX in the industry 🦾
Steven Di Vincenzo
awesome product, slick, and easy to use! Great work
Sammy Tchalaby
Love the idea. Would love to buy some coins for ny nephew for christmas! where is your business based?
Daniel Rose
@sammy_tchalaby We are based out of London! The app is available on the App store and on Android globally!
Jaco Koenig
@sammy_tchalaby customer service is always there to help you and your nephew. This is the reason we created Doshi, so super excited you find it useful!
Cezary Dobrowolski
Will it push MetaMask out? :)
Jaco Koenig
@wekh haha! There's always going to be a place for a technical player like MetaMask, where semi-pro's feel at home. But Doshi is more about being the training wheels of web3. Definitely less intimidating than MetaMask 😌
Ryan Hoover
Congrats on the launch. What makes Doshi more "gen z"?
Jaco Koenig
@rrhoover Thanks, and great question Ryan. It's the UX. If you ask GenZ-ers, they'll tell you that they are curious about web3, but there are 2 barriers to jumping in: 1) They find it way to confusing or they don't know where to start, and 2) They struggle to find a safe and comfortable workaround to the fact that exchanges require them to be over 18. Doshi is better for GenZ-ers because it functions as the training wheels for crypto. It's easier to onboard than pretty much any wallet out there because it doesn't require them to know anything in advance (like what is their private key and how to safeguard it), and it also allows them to jump right into learning, creating and exploring with features like fantasy trading, a learning academy, requesting crypto gifts from family in one click, and free NFT creation. There's so much more to say, but I'd love it if you just saw it for yourself. I'm proud of the experience that the team has created and I hope you'll like it too!
