CORE SERVICE
Smart Contract Development
Secure, production-ready smart contracts built to your exact specifications.
We write code that protects your assets and your users, with every contract undergoing a rigorous multi-stage audit process.
- Full-Stack Development: From
ERC-20/721/1155tokens to complex DeFi protocols, cross-chain bridges, and DAO governance systems. - Security-First Approach: Built with
Solidity 0.8+and OpenZeppelin libraries, followed by internal review and third-party audit preparation. - End-to-End Delivery: We handle deployment, verification on Etherscan/Solscan, and provide comprehensive documentation for your team.

BEYOND STANDARD SECURITY
Why Choose a Specialized Upgrade Audit
General smart contract audits miss the unique risks of upgradeable systems. Our protocol-specific methodology delivers the precision required to secure your most critical infrastructure.
01
Protocol-Specific Threat Modeling
We analyze attack vectors unique to upgrade mechanisms—like storage collisions, initialization exploits, and governance bypasses—that generic audits overlook. Our threat models are built from analyzing over 50 live upgradeable protocols.

Unique Threat Vectors
02
Storage Layout & Inheritance Verification
Manual and automated verification of storage variable ordering, gaps, and inheritance chains to prevent catastrophic data corruption during upgrades. We ensure your new logic seamlessly integrates with existing state.

03
Governance & Access Control Review
Comprehensive security assessment of your upgrade admin roles, timelocks, multi-sig configurations, and emergency pause mechanisms. We validate that only authorized parties can execute upgrades under intended conditions.

Upgrade Simulation & Dry-Run Testing
We simulate the full upgrade lifecycle on forked mainnet environments, testing rollback procedures, state migration, and post-upgrade functionality to eliminate deployment surprises.

CORE SERVICE
Smart Contract Development
Secure, audited smart contracts built to your exact specifications, from concept to mainnet deployment.
We architect and deploy production-grade smart contracts that form the backbone of your Web3 application. Our development process is built for security and speed, delivering custom logic for DeFi, NFTs, DAOs, and enterprise use cases on networks like Ethereum, Polygon, and Solana.
- Full Lifecycle Development: From initial specification and
Solidity/Rustcoding to rigorous testing and final mainnet deployment. - Security-First Approach: Every contract undergoes internal audits using industry-standard tools and follows
OpenZeppelinbest practices. - Measurable Outcomes: Achieve faster time-to-market with a typical MVP delivered in 2-4 weeks and zero critical vulnerabilities in production deployments.
Institutional-Grade Protocol Audit
Frequently Asked Questions
Get clear answers on our security-first audit methodology, engagement process, and post-audit support for protocol upgrades.
We employ a multi-layered, institutional-grade methodology. This includes:
- Architectural Risk Analysis: Review of upgrade logic, governance mechanisms, and cross-contract dependencies.
- Automated Analysis: Using industry-standard tools (Slither, Mythril) to detect common vulnerabilities.
- Manual Code Review: Line-by-line inspection by senior auditors focusing on upgrade-specific risks like storage collisions, initialization flaws, and proxy patterns.
- Formal Verification: For critical state transitions, we use tools like Certora to mathematically prove correctness.
- Integration & Scenario Testing: Simulating mainnet conditions and adversarial scenarios to test upgrade rollback and failure modes.
Our process is based on OpenZeppelin's upgrade best practices and has secured over $500M+ in TVL across 50+ protocol upgrades.
