We architect and deploy secure, gas-optimized smart contracts that form the core of your Web3 product. Our development process is built on industry-standard security practices, including comprehensive unit testing, formal verification for critical logic, and integration with leading audit firms like ConsenSys Diligence and Trail of Bits.
Interoperable Token Standard Design (XCM)
Smart Contract Development
Production-ready smart contracts built for security, scalability, and long-term maintainability.
- Full Lifecycle Support: From initial architecture and
Solidity 0.8+development to deployment, monitoring, and upgrade management using transparent proxy patterns. - Protocol Expertise: Custom implementations for
ERC-20,ERC-721,ERC-1155, staking systems, DAO governance, and bespoke DeFi primitives. - Guaranteed Outcomes: Deliver a fully audited MVP within 4-6 weeks with clear documentation and a deployment roadmap.
We don't just write code; we engineer resilient systems. Our contracts are designed for the mainnet, with security and upgrade paths baked in from day one.
Our Interoperable Token Engineering Capabilities
We design and implement secure, efficient token standards that bridge ecosystems, enabling seamless asset transfers and unified liquidity across Polkadot, Ethereum, and Cosmos.
XCM Token Standard Design
Architect custom XCM-compliant token pallets and smart contracts for cross-chain fungible and non-fungible assets. We ensure compliance with the latest XCM v3 specifications for future-proof interoperability.
Cross-Chain Bridge Integration
Integrate your token with secure, audited bridge protocols (like Axelar, Wormhole, or Hyperlane). We handle the complex logic for mint/burn, locking, and message verification between chains.
Gas & Fee Optimization
Engineer gas-efficient token logic and cross-chain message formats to minimize user costs. We implement batch processing and state optimization for sub-cent transaction fees where possible.
Security Audits & Formal Verification
Deliver production-ready code backed by internal audits and optional formal verification using tools like K-framework. Our contracts follow OpenZeppelin and Parity best practices.
Multi-Chain Wallet & UI SDK
Provide a developer SDK and reference UI components for seamless wallet interactions (MetaMask, Talisman, Polkadot.js). Enable single-click cross-chain transfers for end-users.
Ongoing Governance & Upgrades
Implement upgradeable proxy patterns and governance modules (OpenGov, DAO) for managing token parameters, bridge whitelists, and future standard migrations without forks.
Business Outcomes of a Cross-Chain Token Model
Designing with an interoperable token standard unlocks measurable business growth, operational efficiency, and a defensible market position. Here are the tangible outcomes we deliver.
Accelerated Market Expansion
Deploy your token across Ethereum, Polygon, Arbitrum, and other major L2s in a single, coordinated launch. Eliminate the 6-12 month development cycle typically required for sequential chain deployments.
Unified User Experience
Provide a seamless, single-wallet experience for users interacting with your token across chains. Eliminate confusing bridge interfaces and fragmented liquidity that erodes user retention.
Optimized Capital Efficiency
Dynamically route liquidity and transactions to the most cost-effective chain based on real-time gas fees and network congestion. Reduce operational costs and user transaction fees by over 70%.
Enhanced Security & Compliance Posture
Implement a single, auditable smart contract standard (e.g., XCM, LayerZero OFT) with consistent security logic across all chains. Centralize compliance controls and monitoring, simplifying audits and regulatory reporting.
Future-Proof Architecture
Build on a modular standard that allows for seamless integration of new chains and protocols (e.g., Celestia, Base, zkSync) without costly refactoring. Protect your technical investment against ecosystem evolution.
Competitive Moats & Developer Adoption
Offer developers a single, powerful SDK to build on your token across any supported chain. This creates a powerful network effect, making your ecosystem the default choice for cross-chain applications.

Our Delivery Process: From Design to Deployment
Our proven, four-phase framework de-risks your XCM integration, ensuring technical excellence, security, and on-time delivery. We transform complex interoperability requirements into a production-ready, maintainable system.
Phase 1: Discovery & Architecture Design
We conduct a deep technical assessment of your target chains (Polkadot, Kusama, or custom parachains) and business logic to architect a secure, efficient XCM message flow. Deliverables include a detailed technical specification and a phased implementation roadmap.
Phase 2: Smart Contract & Pallet Development
Our engineers build the core interoperability logic using battle-tested patterns. This includes custom Substrate pallets for origin chains, XCM Transactors/Reserve Asset protocols, and the corresponding smart contracts (Solidity/Vyper) on destination EVM chains.
Phase 3: Security Audit & Testing
Every line of code undergoes rigorous review. We perform unit, integration, and cross-chain simulation testing using tools like Polkadot.js and Hardhat. Optional: Formal verification and third-party audit coordination with firms like Quantstamp.
Phase 4: Deployment & Integration Support
We manage the deployment to testnet and mainnet, configure XCM channels, and execute dry-runs. We provide comprehensive documentation and hands-on knowledge transfer to your team for ongoing maintenance and operation.
