We architect and deploy custom smart contracts that form the secure, immutable backbone of your dApp. Our development process is built on audited code patterns and rigorous testing to mitigate risks and ensure reliability from day one.
Compliant Security Token Governance Models
Smart Contract Development
Secure, production-ready smart contracts built by experts for your Web3 application.
- Protocol Development: Custom
ERC-20,ERC-721, andERC-1155tokens, DeFi primitives (AMMs, lending/borrowing), and governance systems. - Security-First Approach: Code reviews, formal verification, and integration with tools like
SlitherandMythXbefore deployment. - Full Lifecycle Support: From initial design and development on
EVM/Solana/Starknetto mainnet deployment and post-launch monitoring.
We deliver contracts that are secure by design, reducing audit cycles and protecting your project's value and users.
Our engineers specialize in gas optimization and upgradeable contract patterns (e.g., Transparent vs. UUPS Proxies) to ensure your application remains cost-effective and adaptable for the long term.
Core Components of a Compliant Governance Model
Our governance frameworks are engineered from the ground up to meet the dual demands of regulatory compliance and operational efficiency. We deliver the technical architecture that enables secure, transparent, and legally sound token management.
On-Chain Voting & Proposal Engine
Implement secure, gas-optimized voting contracts with configurable quorums, vote delegation, and time-locked execution. Supports weighted voting by token class and integrates with Snapshot for off-chain signaling.
Regulatory-Compliant Access Controls
Enforce jurisdiction-based restrictions and investor accreditation (KYC/AML) directly within smart contracts. Our role-based permission system integrates with identity providers to automate compliance gates for transfers and voting rights.
Transparent Treasury Management
Deploy multi-signature Gnosis Safe modules with customizable approval thresholds and spending limits. All treasury actions—from grants to operational expenses—are recorded immutably on-chain with full audit trails.
Automated Dividend & Distribution System
Engineer automated, trustless distribution of profits or rewards to token holders. Supports stablecoin and native token payouts, with configurable schedules and eligibility checks to ensure regulatory adherence.
Governance Dashboard & Analytics
Provide a white-labeled dashboard for token holders to view proposals, cast votes, and track treasury activity. Includes real-time analytics on voter participation and proposal execution status.
Upgradeable & Modular Architecture
Build with upgradeable proxy patterns (Transparent/UUPS) and modular governance components. This future-proofs your system, allowing for seamless upgrades to logic without disrupting token holder rights or requiring migrations.
Why Build Compliant Governance from Day One
Retrofitting compliance is costly and risky. We architect your token governance with regulatory requirements embedded from the start, ensuring investor confidence and operational resilience.
Compliant vs. Standard Governance: A Strategic Comparison
A detailed comparison of governance models to help technical leaders evaluate the trade-offs between standard, permissionless frameworks and fully compliant, institution-ready systems.

Our Process: From Legal Framework to Live Deployment
A structured, auditable methodology for launching compliant security tokens. We integrate legal requirements directly into the smart contract logic and governance architecture, ensuring regulatory alignment from day one.
1. Regulatory Blueprint & Token Design
We analyze your target jurisdictions (Reg D/S, MiFID II, etc.) to define the legal wrapper, transfer restrictions, and investor accreditation logic. This blueprint dictates the on-chain rules for your ERC-1400/3643 token.
2. Smart Contract Architecture & Audit
Development of the core security token contract suite, including issuance, dividend distribution, and embedded compliance (KYC/AML checks, transfer restrictions). All code undergoes formal verification and third-party audit.
3. On-Chain Governance Module Integration
Implementation of DAO tooling (Snapshot, Tally) or custom governance smart contracts for shareholder voting, proposal management, and compliant treasury controls, ensuring decentralized yet regulated oversight.
4. Compliance Oracle & Off-Chain Sync
Deployment of a secure oracle service that syncs verified KYC/AML status from providers like Fractal or Onfido to the blockchain, enabling real-time, permissioned transfers without exposing sensitive data.
5. Staging & Regulatory Sandbox Testing
Full deployment to a testnet or private staging environment. We execute comprehensive test suites simulating regulatory scenarios (restricted transfers, cap table management) and stress-test the governance mechanisms.
6. Mainnet Deployment & Ongoing Monitoring
Secure, multi-sig governed mainnet launch. We provide 24/7 monitoring dashboards for compliance events, governance activity, and system health, with optional smart contract upgrade management services.
Frequently Asked Questions on Compliant Token Governance
Get clear answers on timelines, security, and process for implementing a compliant token governance framework.
A standard deployment for a compliant token governance framework takes 4-8 weeks from kickoff to mainnet launch. This includes: 1-2 weeks for requirements & legal mapping, 2-3 weeks for smart contract development and internal audits, 1 week for third-party audit integration, and 1-2 weeks for testing and deployment. Complex multi-jurisdictional models may extend this timeline.
