We architect and deploy custom smart contracts on EVM and Solana that are secure by design. Our development process integrates formal verification and industry-standard audits from day one, ensuring your core logic is resilient before mainnet launch.
Storage Protocol Security Assessments
Smart Contract Development
Secure, audited smart contracts built for production by Web3-native engineers.
- Production-Ready Code: Built with
Solidity 0.8+orRust, using audited libraries likeOpenZeppelin. - Gas Optimization: Contracts are engineered for >30% lower gas costs on average versus unaudited implementations.
- Full Audit Trail: Every contract undergoes internal review + external audit (e.g., CertiK, Halborn) with a remediation guarantee.
- Deployment & Management: We handle mainnet deployment, verification, and provide upgradeability patterns for future iterations.
Comprehensive Security Evaluation
Our systematic assessment identifies critical vulnerabilities in your storage protocol's architecture, smart contracts, and economic incentives before they impact users or assets.
Architecture & Design Review
We analyze your protocol's core design for logical flaws, centralization risks, and failure modes. This includes consensus mechanisms, data sharding logic, and upgradeability patterns to ensure robust, decentralized operation.
Smart Contract Security Audit
In-depth manual and automated review of storage-specific contracts (data pinning, retrieval incentives, slashing conditions) for vulnerabilities like reentrancy, access control flaws, and economic manipulation.
Cryptographic Analysis
Verification of all cryptographic primitives used for data integrity (Merkle proofs, erasure coding), access control, and node identity. We ensure implementations resist known attacks and side-channel vulnerabilities.
Economic & Incentive Modeling
Stress-testing of tokenomics, staking/reward mechanisms, and slashing conditions under adversarial scenarios. We model for Sybil attacks, withholding attacks, and long-term sustainability.
Node Client & RPC Security
Assessment of node implementation security, including P2P networking, RPC endpoint hardening, and denial-of-service resilience for storage providers and users.
Final Report & Remediation
Receive a detailed technical report with CVSS-scored findings, proof-of-concept exploits, and prioritized remediation guidance. Includes follow-up review of fixes before mainnet deployment.
Why a Specialized Bitcoin Storage Audit is Critical
Generic smart contract audits miss the unique attack vectors and operational risks inherent to Bitcoin-native storage systems. Our specialized assessments target the specific protocols and infrastructure your custody solution relies on.
Protocol-Specific Vulnerability Detection
We audit the implementation of Bitcoin-specific protocols (PSBTs, Miniscript, Descriptors) for logic flaws, signature malleability, and fee management errors that generic tools overlook.
Hot/Cold Storage Architecture Review
Comprehensive assessment of key generation, segmentation, storage, and signing workflows across air-gapped, HSM, and multi-party computation (MPC) setups to eliminate single points of failure.
Operational & Procedural Security
Evaluation of human processes: key ceremony documentation, backup recovery drills, personnel access controls, and incident response plans to prevent procedural breaches.
Storage Protocol Security Assessment Tiers
Our tiered assessment model provides scalable security coverage, from foundational code review to comprehensive operational security.

Our Assessment Methodology
Our structured, multi-phase approach delivers actionable security insights, not just a checklist. We focus on identifying critical vulnerabilities that could lead to data loss, financial theft, or protocol failure.
Architecture & Design Review
We analyze your protocol's architecture, data models, and incentive structures against industry standards like Filecoin, Arweave, and IPFS. Identifies systemic risks before code is written.
Smart Contract & Core Logic Audit
Manual and automated review of on-chain logic for storage deals, slashing, proofs, and payments. We test for reentrancy, access control flaws, and economic logic errors.
Cryptographic & Proof Verification
Deep-dive analysis of Proof-of-Replication (PoRep), Proof-of-Spacetime (PoSt), and data encoding schemes. Ensures cryptographic assumptions hold under adversarial conditions.
Economic & Incentive Stress Testing
Simulates adversarial market conditions, tokenomics attacks, and collusion scenarios. Models the security of your staking, slashing, and reward mechanisms.
Remediation & Final Verification
We provide prioritized, actionable fixes and verify all vulnerabilities are resolved. Deliver a final attestation report for your team and stakeholders.
