The Ontario Securities Commission (OSC) was looking to provide Canadians with reliable, easy-to-understand information about cryptocurrency. 

Sandbox designed and developed the GetSmarterAboutCrypto website – a custom-built, mobile-friendly platform which explains the basics of digital currencies, how they work, and how to use them safely. 

Available in both English and French, the website aims to reach a broad audience, helping Canadians navigate the complexities of cryptocurrency in their preferred language.

To ensure longevity, Sandbox designed the website with a user-friendly backend Content Management System (CMS), allowing OSC to easily update and manage educational content. 

Custom-designed ‘Lottie’ animations are integrated throughout the website, enhancing user engagement with dynamic visuals that simplify complex concepts. 

By providing practical, straightforward information, the platform helps users make informed decisions and mitigate the risks associated with cryptocurrency investments. This project reinforces OSC’s commitment to investor education and consumer protection in the digital age.
