CORE SERVICE
Smart Contract Development
Secure, production-ready smart contracts built by Web3-native engineers.
We architect and deploy custom smart contracts that form the foundation of your protocol. Our development process is built on security-first principles, utilizing OpenZeppelin libraries, Slither static analysis, and formal verification for critical logic.
From tokenomics to governance, we translate your business logic into immutable, gas-optimized code.
- Token Systems:
ERC-20,ERC-721,ERC-1155, and custom standards with vesting, staking, and airdrop mechanics. - DeFi Primitives: Automated Market Makers (AMMs), lending/borrowing pools, yield aggregators, and derivative contracts.
- Protocol Logic: Multi-signature governance, upgradeable proxy patterns (
UUPS/Transparent), and cross-chain messaging (LayerZero,Axelar).
We deliver audit-ready code with comprehensive documentation and a clear path to mainnet deployment on Ethereum, Polygon, Arbitrum, or Base.
Technical & Commercial Considerations
DePIN Migration & Forking FAQs
Answers to the most common questions from CTOs and founders evaluating a DePIN protocol migration or fork. Based on our experience delivering 30+ DePIN projects.
A standard fork of an existing DePIN protocol (e.g., Helium, Hivemapper) with custom tokenomics and UI takes 3-5 weeks from kickoff to mainnet launch. This includes 1 week for architecture and token design, 2-3 weeks for development and internal QA, and 1 week for testnet deployment and final client review. Complex migrations with novel hardware integrations or consensus changes can extend to 8-10 weeks.
