Business Outcomes for Your Exchange
Our ZK-Rollup Layer 2 scaling solution for perpetual futures delivers measurable improvements to your platform's performance, security, and bottom line. Here’s what you can expect.
Sub-Second Trade Execution
ZK-Rollup technology enables near-instant trade finality, delivering a user experience that matches CEX speed while maintaining on-chain security. Critical for high-frequency strategies and arbitrage bots.
Gas Cost Reduction > 90%
Batching thousands of trades into a single on-chain proof slashes transaction fees for your users. This is a key competitive advantage for attracting high-volume traders.
Enterprise-Grade Security & Audits
Our ZK-Rollup circuits and core contracts undergo rigorous audits by firms like Trail of Bits and Spearbit. We implement formal verification for critical components, ensuring fund safety is never compromised.
Full Customization & Sovereignty
Tailor the trading engine, fee structures, and risk parameters to your exact business model. You maintain full control over the sequencer and governance, avoiding vendor lock-in.
Regulatory & Compliance Readiness
Built-in features for transaction monitoring, user tiering (KYC), and selective privacy prepare your exchange for evolving regulatory requirements without sacrificing decentralization.
Rapid Integration & Go-Live
Leverage our battle-tested ZK-Rollup stack and deployment playbooks. We handle the complex Layer 2 infrastructure so you can focus on your core trading product and go to market faster.
Build vs. Buy: Custom ZK-Rollup vs. Generic L2

Our Delivery Process: From Design to Mainnet
A proven, four-phase methodology to deliver a production-ready ZK-Rollup for perpetual futures, minimizing your technical risk and accelerating your time-to-market.
Phase 1: Architecture & Design
We define your system's core components: sequencer architecture, ZK-proof circuit logic, data availability layer, and economic security model. This phase delivers a comprehensive technical specification and project roadmap.
Phase 2: Core Development
Our engineers build the core infrastructure: the sequencer node, custom Cairo/Noir ZK circuits for trade validity, and the on-chain verifier contract. All code follows OpenZeppelin security patterns and is developed in parallel for efficiency.
Phase 3: Security & Testing
Rigorous security audit by a top-tier firm (e.g., Trail of Bits, Quantstamp), comprehensive testnet deployment with simulated load, and formal verification of critical circuit logic. We ensure battle-tested resilience before mainnet.
Phase 4: Deployment & Monitoring
We manage the mainnet deployment, configure monitoring and alerting for sequencer health and proof generation latency, and provide detailed operational runbooks. Includes a 30-day post-launch support period.
