Frequently Asked Questions
Get clear answers to the most common questions about our development process, security, and support for building robust cross-chain DeFi protocols.
Our process follows a structured 4-phase methodology: 1. Discovery & Design (1-2 weeks): We analyze your requirements, design the architecture, and finalize the tech stack. 2. Core Development (3-6 weeks): We build the smart contracts, off-chain relayers, and front-end interface. 3. Security & Testing (2-3 weeks): We conduct internal audits, penetration testing, and deploy to testnets. 4. Launch & Support (1 week): We assist with mainnet deployment and provide post-launch monitoring. This ensures a predictable timeline and clear deliverables at each stage.
