CORE SERVICE
Smart Contract Development
Secure, production-ready smart contracts built by Web3 specialists for your protocol or application.
From a single token to a complex DeFi protocol, we deliver battle-tested code that scales.
- Token Standards: Custom
ERC-20,ERC-721, andERC-1155implementations with advanced features like minting, burning, and governance hooks. - DeFi & dApps: Automated Market Makers (AMMs), staking pools, vesting schedules, and multi-signature wallets.
- Security-First Process: Every contract undergoes internal review and is structured for seamless third-party audits by firms like CertiK or Quantstamp.
- Full Lifecycle Support: Development, testing on
Hardhat/Foundry, deployment to mainnet, and ongoing maintenance.

METHODICAL & TRANSPARENT
Our 4-Phase Engagement Process
We deliver structured, predictable results for your governance security. Our proven process, refined across 50+ DAOs and DeFi protocols, ensures comprehensive coverage and actionable remediation.
01
Phase 1: Governance Architecture Review
We conduct a deep-dive analysis of your on-chain governance system, including timelocks, multi-sigs, proposal logic, and voter delegation mechanisms. This phase identifies foundational vulnerabilities before active testing begins.

Governance Testing FAQs
Common questions from CTOs and founders evaluating our governance security testing services.
A comprehensive governance attack simulation and audit typically takes 2-3 weeks from kickoff to final report. This includes 1 week for initial setup and threat modeling, 1-2 weeks for active simulation and penetration testing, and 2-3 days for report compilation and debrief. For complex DAOs or protocols with custom governance modules, timelines may extend to 4 weeks.
