01 · Intent routing · Reconstructed wireframe board
Mular routes by goal before routing by feature. The intent selector at onboarding isn't a segmentation question — it's a goal question. It sets product defaults before the user sees any feature, and it persists as a changeable preference in Settings.

1 — Onboarding intent selector
The question is not "are you a crypto expert?" It's "what are you trying to do?" Two fundamentally different user goals, two opposite flow directions through the same product infrastructure.

Automatically convert my NGN funding to USD

Once I fund my NGN wallet, convert to USD with the rate at that time.
No, please
I'll have to manually purchase USD whenever I want to
2 — Persistent preference (Settings)
This is not a one-time onboarding choice that locks you in. It persists as a product preference, changeable at any time. The product treats user intent as an evolving context, not a fixed category.
Not onboarding — product contextDesign principle
Route by goal before routing by feature. A USD Saver who encounters a "Fund Crypto" CTA with no context assumes the product isn't for them and leaves. The intent selector prevents the wrong mental model from forming before the user sees a single feature.
