CORE SERVICE
Smart Contract Development
Secure, production-ready smart contracts built by Web3 experts for your protocol.
We architect and deploy the business logic for your dApp. Our team delivers audit-ready code on EVM or Solana, from simple ERC-20 tokens to complex DeFi primitives and NFT marketplaces.
- Full Lifecycle Ownership: From initial design and
Solidity/Rustdevelopment to deployment, verification, and on-chain monitoring. - Security-First Approach: Built with
OpenZeppelinstandards, comprehensive unit/integration testing, and formal verification for critical functions. - Gas Optimization: Every contract is profiled and refined to reduce user transaction costs by 15-40%.
- Time-to-Market: Go from spec to mainnet in as little as 2-4 weeks for an MVP.
We don't just write code; we deliver the secure, scalable foundation your protocol needs to launch and grow with confidence.

Frequently Asked Questions on DEX Dark Pools
Get clear answers on timelines, security, and process for building institutional-grade dark pools on decentralized exchanges.
A standard institutional dark pool deployment takes 4-6 weeks from kickoff to mainnet launch. This includes 2 weeks for smart contract development and internal audits, 1 week for integration with your existing systems (wallets, KYC), and 1-2 weeks for third-party security audits and final testing. Complex features like cross-chain settlement or bespoke order types can extend this timeline, which we scope and agree upon upfront.
