OUR FRAMEWORK
Drive Protocol Growth with Cross-Chain LSTs
Expand your Total Value Locked (TVL) and user base by unlocking liquidity across Ethereum, Arbitrum, Polygon, and other major L2s. Our framework delivers secure, composable LSTs that integrate seamlessly into DeFi ecosystems.
01
Multi-Chain LST Deployment
Deploy your native staking token as a canonical Liquid Staking Token (LST) on Ethereum L1 and as wrapped versions (e.g., wstETH) on Arbitrum, Optimism, and Polygon. We handle the bridge infrastructure and canonical representation logic.

CORE SERVICE
Smart Contract Development
Secure, production-ready smart contracts built by Web3-native engineers.
We architect and deploy custom smart contracts that form the backbone of your protocol. Our development process is built on security-first principles, utilizing battle-tested libraries like OpenZeppelin and rigorous internal audits before deployment to EVM or Solana networks.
- From Specification to Mainnet: We handle the full lifecycle—design, development, testing, and deployment—delivering a production-ready MVP in as little as 2-4 weeks.
- Protocol Expertise: Token standards (
ERC-20,ERC-721,SPL), DeFi primitives (AMMs, lending vaults), and complex multi-signature governance systems. - Guaranteed Security: Every contract undergoes static analysis, formal verification, and peer review to mitigate risks before your audit.

PROVEN METHODOLOGY
Our Development & Integration Process
A structured, security-first approach to delivering a production-ready LST cross-chain framework, minimizing your technical risk and accelerating your time-to-market.
01
Architecture & Protocol Design
We design a robust cross-chain messaging architecture using LayerZero or Axelar, ensuring secure, low-latency LST transfers. This phase defines tokenomics, fee structures, and governance models for your liquid staking derivative.
