overview

CORE SERVICE

Smart Contract Development

Secure, production-ready smart contracts built by experts for your Web3 product.

We architect and deploy custom smart contracts that form the secure, immutable backbone of your application. Our development process is built on audited patterns and gas-optimized code to ensure reliability and cost-efficiency from day one.

Full-Stack Development: From ERC-20 tokens and ERC-721 NFTs to complex DeFi protocols and DAO governance systems.
Security-First Approach: All code follows OpenZeppelin standards and undergoes rigorous internal review before recommendation for third-party audits.
Guaranteed Outcomes: We deliver production-ready contracts with comprehensive documentation and a clear deployment roadmap.

Move from concept to a live, secure mainnet deployment in as little as 2-4 weeks with our streamlined development sprint.

Our engineers specialize in Solidity and Vyper for EVM chains, and Rust for Solana and CosmWasm, ensuring the right tool for your ecosystem. We handle the entire lifecycle:

Architecture & Design: Collaborative sessions to define logic, security, and upgrade paths.
Development & Testing: Comprehensive unit and integration testing in forked environments.
Deployment & Verification: Gas-optimized deployment with full block explorer verification.

Architectural Comparison

AppChain vs. Generic Smart Contract Platform

Choosing the right infrastructure foundation is critical for edge network performance and control. This table compares the operational and technical trade-offs between a dedicated AppChain and deploying on a shared L1/L2.

Infrastructure Factor	AppChain (Dedicated)	Generic Smart Contract Platform (Shared)
Network Sovereignty & Control	Full control over chain parameters, upgrades, and gas economics.	Governed by the platform's core developers and DAO; subject to their roadmap and fees.
Transaction Throughput & Latency	Predictable, dedicated capacity. Achieve 10,000+ TPS with sub-2s finality.	Variable, shared resources. Performance depends on overall network congestion.
Operational Cost Structure	Fixed, predictable costs for validators and infrastructure. No per-tx gas wars.	Variable, auction-based gas fees. Costs spike during high demand, impacting user experience.
Customizability for Edge Logic	Native support for custom precompiles, fee logic, and consensus tweaks optimized for your dApp.	Limited to the EVM or VM of the host chain. Cannot modify core protocol rules.
Time to Production	8-12 weeks for a fully-audited, production-ready chain with Chainscore.	1-2 weeks for contract deployment, but reliant on the underlying chain's maturity and security.
Security & Validator Set	You control or select the validator set. Security is a direct function of your setup and incentives.	Inherits security from the base layer (e.g., Ethereum). You are a tenant in a secure building.
Cross-Chain Interoperability	Requires dedicated bridging infrastructure (we build this). More complex initial setup.	Native access to the platform's ecosystem and existing bridges (e.g., to Ethereum).
Total Cost of Ownership (Year 1)	$150K - $500K+ for development, audit, and validator ops. Higher control, higher initial cost.	$50K - $200K+ primarily in gas fees and smart contract development. Lower upfront, variable ongoing.
Ideal Use Case	High-frequency trading, gaming, enterprise supply chains, applications requiring deterministic performance and custom rules.	NFT projects, general DeFi protocols, MVPs, applications where ecosystem liquidity is the primary priority.

PROVEN METHODOLOGY

Our AppChain Development Process

A structured, four-phase approach to deliver a production-ready, high-performance AppChain for your edge network operations. We focus on security, scalability, and seamless integration from day one.

Architecture & Consensus Design

We architect your AppChain's core infrastructure, selecting the optimal consensus mechanism (PoS, PoA, IBFT) and network topology for low-latency edge operations. This phase defines the finality, throughput, and validator requirements.

Edge Network Operations

AppChain Development FAQs

Answers to common technical and commercial questions about building a dedicated blockchain for your edge computing use case.

A standard AppChain deployment takes 2-4 weeks from kickoff to mainnet launch. This includes architecture design, consensus configuration, node deployment, and initial testing. Complex integrations with existing edge infrastructure or custom consensus mechanisms can extend this to 6-8 weeks. We provide a detailed project plan with weekly milestones.
