The easy answer would be to compare it to the first video games right? It gets better over time.

I think the right answer is that the space is so early, it's risky for established, great UX people to drop their comfy salary at an established company to work on a decentralized exchange. Once the incentives align better, the products will get better.

My hope is that in 5 years time the UX will be so good, we'll be able to get loans, provide LP and borrow against a variety of assets with our eyes closed.

This is a good point.

What about poorly designed protocols / projects then? I am not sure any UX person could fix a burning train, right?

Shouldn't the UX people be included as early as possible? That would probably help right?
