PRODUCTION-READY ARCHITECTURE

Core DEX Smart Contract Features

Our smart contracts are built for high-frequency trading, security, and seamless integration. Each feature is designed to reduce your time-to-market and operational risk.

01

Gas-Optimized AMM Core

Custom-built Automated Market Maker logic with sub-0.1% swap fees and MEV-resistant routing. Built on Solidity 0.8+ with OpenZeppelin security patterns for maximum capital efficiency.

02

Multi-Chain Liquidity Pools

Deploy identical liquidity pools across Ethereum, Arbitrum, and Polygon with a single codebase. Our architecture abstracts chain-specific complexities for unified management.

DEX Smart Contract Development

Technical & Commercial FAQs

Answers to the most common technical and business questions we receive from CTOs and founders evaluating DEX development partners.

Our structured 4-phase process ensures predictable delivery:

  1. Discovery & Design (1 week): Requirements gathering, architecture design, and tokenomics review.
  2. Core Development (2-3 weeks): Smart contract implementation, unit testing, and internal security review.
  3. Testing & Audit (1-2 weeks): Comprehensive testnet deployment, integration testing, and third-party audit coordination.
  4. Mainnet Launch & Support (1 week): Deployment, frontend integration, and go-live support.

A standard Automated Market Maker (AMM) DEX with basic features (swap, liquidity pools) typically deploys in 4-6 weeks. Complex features like concentrated liquidity, veTokenomics, or cross-chain swaps extend the timeline, which we define upfront in a fixed-scope proposal.
