Bitcoin crowdfunding platform Geyser launched a much-anticipated UX update. It includes email notifications for creators and contributors, as well as major updates to platform and project pages.
- "We’re excited to introduce a major redesign of Geyser’s user experience (UX), one of the most requested updates from our community. Since launching Geyser almost two years ago, we’ve gained valuable insights and this update reflects what we’ve learned," announced the project.
What's new
- Creator & contributor emails. Implemented a recurring email notification system that provides weekly or monthly alerts about project progress for both creators and project followers.

- Rebranded Posts. "We are rebranding ‘Entries’ as ‘Posts’ and have enhanced the creation and viewing experience for them."
- Improved Sharing - Social sharing is now a central action on all project pages.
