BUILT FOR ENTERPRISE

Technology & Protocol Standards

Our DeFi voting systems are engineered on battle-tested, audited standards, ensuring security, interoperability, and compliance from day one. We deliver production-ready infrastructure, not experimental prototypes.

01

Governance Token Standards

We implement and extend industry-standard token contracts (ERC-20, ERC-1155) with custom governance hooks, snapshot delegation, and gas-efficient voting power calculations. This ensures seamless integration with existing DeFi ecosystems and wallets.

Frequently Asked Questions

Get clear answers on our process, timeline, security, and support for building custom governance protocols.

A standard, production-ready DeFi voting system with core features (proposal creation, voting, delegation, execution) typically deploys in 3-5 weeks. Complex integrations (multi-chain, quadratic voting, time-locks) or extensive custom logic can extend this to 6-10 weeks. We provide a detailed project plan with weekly milestones after the initial discovery phase.
