SECURE FOUNDATION
Custom Smart Contract Development
Production-ready smart contracts built with enterprise-grade security and gas optimization.
- Security-First Architecture: From
ERC-20tokens to complex DeFi logic, we implement battle-tested patterns and conduct multiple audit rounds. - Gas Optimization: Every contract is optimized for minimum transaction costs, saving end-users money and improving UX.
- Full Lifecycle Support: We handle deployment, upgradeability planning (using proxies like
TransparentUpgradeableProxy), and ongoing maintenance.
Deliver a secure, audited, and gas-efficient smart contract system in as little as 4-6 weeks, giving your product a trusted technical foundation.

Choosing Your Prediction Market Foundation
Parachain vs. Smart Contract: Strategic Comparison
Selecting the right technical foundation is critical for prediction market performance, security, and scalability. This comparison highlights the strategic trade-offs between building a dedicated Substrate parachain versus deploying smart contracts on a generic L1/L2.

Technical & Commercial Insights
Parachain Prediction Market FAQs
Get clear answers to the most common questions from CTOs and founders about building a custom prediction market on Substrate.
A standard prediction market parachain with core features (staking, oracle integration, basic UI) typically deploys in 6-10 weeks. Fixed-price engagements for this scope start at $120,000. Complex features like cross-chain liquidity bridges or advanced governance can extend the timeline to 14+ weeks with custom quotes. We provide a detailed project breakdown and fixed-price proposal after the initial technical discovery.
