overview
CORE SERVICE

Smart Contract Development

Secure, production-ready smart contracts built by Web3 experts.

We architect and deploy custom Solidity/Rust smart contracts that are secure, gas-optimized, and tailored to your specific business logic. Every contract undergoes a rigorous audit cycle before mainnet deployment.

  • Full Lifecycle Development: From concept and design to deployment and monitoring.
  • Security-First: Built with OpenZeppelin standards and tested against known attack vectors.
  • Gas Optimization: We reduce transaction costs by up to 40% through expert code structuring.
  • Multi-Chain Ready: Deployable on EVM chains (Ethereum, Polygon, Arbitrum) and Solana.

Deliver a battle-tested, auditable foundation for your token, DeFi protocol, or NFT project in as little as 3 weeks.

Business Outcomes for Retail Operators

Deploying Bitcoin payments is an operational upgrade. We deliver concrete improvements to your bottom line, customer experience, and competitive edge.

01

Eliminate Payment Intermediaries

Direct Bitcoin settlement removes card networks, processors, and acquirers from your payment flow. This cuts per-transaction fees by 70-90%, directly increasing your net revenue on every sale.

Frequently Asked Questions

Get clear answers on how we enable secure, low-fee Bitcoin transactions for your retail hardware.

A standard integration for a single device type takes 2-4 weeks from kickoff to production deployment. This includes Lightning Network node setup, firmware SDK integration, and end-to-end testing. Complex multi-device ecosystems or custom hardware modifications may extend the timeline, which we scope and quote upfront.
