Frequently Asked Questions
Get clear answers on our process, timeline, security, and support for building your DeFi protocol.
Our standard development cycle is 6-12 weeks from specification to mainnet deployment. A typical AMM or lending protocol MVP takes 6-8 weeks. More complex systems with novel mechanisms (e.g., cross-margin perpetuals, yield aggregators) require 10-12+ weeks. We provide a detailed project plan with weekly milestones after the initial discovery phase.
