Designing Competitive Analysis for a P2P Commission-FREE exchange mobile app


Scenario

You’re a product designer in a large bitcoin corporation. Management has decided to build a new mobile app that lets people buy and sell bitcoin peer-to-peer and commission-free Bitcoins. You're put on the design team for this new app. Since it's early in the process, you're asked to review the competitive design landscape by identifying and researching similar apps. The design team will use your analysis to find opportunities to stand out and differentiate the product.

Task

Perform a competitive analysis of existing mobile applications that would be the competitors of this fictional app. Create a report of what you find.
Extra Credit: Include specific recommendations in the report about how your team can differentiate the app and what design opportunities you can take advantage of.
