CORE SERVICE

Smart Contract Development

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

We architect and deploy custom smart contracts for DeFi, NFTs, and enterprise protocols. Our development process ensures security-first design, gas optimization, and comprehensive audit readiness.

  • Token Standards: ERC-20, ERC-721, ERC-1155, and custom implementations.
  • DeFi Protocols: DEXs, lending/borrowing platforms, yield aggregators, and staking contracts.
  • Security: Built with OpenZeppelin libraries and formal verification patterns.
  • Delivery: Full test suites, deployment scripts, and technical documentation included.

Reduce your time-to-market with battle-tested contracts. We deliver a production-ready MVP in 2-4 weeks, backed by our team's experience across 50+ live protocols.

DAO Plugin Marketplace Development FAQs

Get clear answers on timelines, costs, and technical details for building a custom DAO plugin marketplace. Based on our experience delivering 20+ governance infrastructure projects.

A production-ready MVP with core marketplace functionality, 3-5 pre-built plugins, and integration with a major DAO framework like Aragon or DAOstack typically takes 6-8 weeks. This includes smart contract development, frontend UI, security audits, and deployment to a testnet. Complex features like cross-chain compatibility or custom plugin SDKs can extend the timeline to 12+ weeks.
