Core Development & Audit Capabilities
We build and secure high-assurance DeFi protocols on Move-based blockchains like Aptos and Sui. Our full-stack expertise delivers production-ready systems with institutional-grade security.
Move Smart Contract Development
Custom DeFi primitives—AMMs, lending pools, liquid staking—built with Move's resource-oriented model for inherent safety and parallel execution. We deliver gas-optimized, upgradable modules ready for mainnet.
Security Audits & Formal Verification
Comprehensive smart contract reviews leveraging the Move Prover for mathematical correctness. Our audit reports include exploit scenarios, gas analysis, and remediation guidance to meet exchange listing requirements.
DeFi Protocol Architecture
End-to-end system design for DEXs, money markets, and yield aggregators. We architect for low-latency finality, cross-chain composability, and scalable fee structures to handle institutional volume.
Integration & Node Operations
Full-node deployment, indexer setup, and RPC endpoint management with 99.9% uptime SLA. We ensure reliable access to on-chain data and seamless integration with wallets, oracles, and cross-chain bridges.
Business Outcomes for Your Protocol
We architect Move-based DeFi systems that deliver measurable results: faster time-to-market, enhanced security, and superior performance. Here's what you can expect.
Secure & Audited Smart Contracts
Production-ready Move modules with formal verification and third-party audits from firms like OtterSec or Zellic. We deliver provably secure code for lending, AMMs, and governance.
High-Performance DeFi Primitives
Custom AMMs, lending vaults, and liquid staking derivatives built on Aptos or Sui. Achieve sub-second finality and handle 10k+ TPS with our optimized Move architecture.
Accelerated Protocol Launch
Go from concept to mainnet in 6-8 weeks with our battle-tested Move development framework. We provide the complete stack: contracts, indexers, and frontend integration.
Gas-Optimized & Cost-Effective
Move's resource-oriented model eliminates reentrancy and reduces gas costs by design. We further optimize for storage and computation, cutting user fees by up to 90% vs. EVM equivalents.
Move vs. EVM: A Security-First Approach
A side-by-side analysis of core architectural differences between Move-based and EVM-based smart contract platforms, highlighting security, performance, and developer experience trade-offs.
| Architectural Feature | Move (e.g., Aptos, Sui) | EVM (e.g., Ethereum, Arbitrum) |
|---|---|---|
Resource-Oriented Model | ||
Formal Verification Support | Native (Move Prover) | Third-Party Tools Only |
Asset Safety & Double-Spend Prevention | Built-in (by default) | Developer Responsibility |
Module/Contract Upgradability | Flexible (on-chain packages) | Complex (proxies, immutable) |
Transaction Parallelization | Native (key feature) | Sequential (by default) |
Gas Fee Predictability | High (static analysis) | Variable (dynamic market) |
Primary Security Risk | Logic/Design Flaws | Reentrancy, Overflow, Front-running |
Typical Time to Audit | 2-4 weeks | 3-6 weeks |
Ideal Use Case | High-Value Assets, Complex DeFi | General-Purpose dApps, Established Ecosystem |
Our High-Assurance Delivery Process
We deliver production-ready Move-based DeFi architectures with a rigorous, multi-stage process designed for security, speed, and seamless integration.
Rigorous Testing Suite
We execute unit, integration, and property-based tests, simulating mainnet conditions and edge cases to identify failures before deployment.
Third-Party Audit Preparation
We prepare comprehensive audit packages with detailed documentation and test proofs, streamlining reviews with firms like Trail of Bits and OtterSec.
Deployment & Monitoring
We manage the deployment to mainnet (Aptos, Sui) and establish real-time monitoring for transaction success rates, resource usage, and security events.

Move DeFi Architecture FAQs
Get clear answers to the most common questions CTOs and founders ask when evaluating a Move-based DeFi architecture partner.
Our process follows a structured 4-phase approach: Discovery & Design (1-2 weeks), Core Development (3-6 weeks), Security Audit & Testing (2-3 weeks), and Deployment & Launch (1 week). A standard custom DEX or lending protocol typically takes 8-12 weeks from kickoff to mainnet. We provide weekly demos and maintain a fixed-price scope for the defined deliverables.
