CORE SERVICE

Smart Contract Development

Secure, production-ready smart contracts built by Web3-native engineers.

We architect and deploy custom smart contracts for tokens, DeFi protocols, and NFT ecosystems. Our development process ensures security-first design, gas optimization, and comprehensive audit readiness.

Deliver a secure, scalable foundation for your product in weeks, not months.

  • Token Standards: ERC-20, ERC-721, ERC-1155, and custom implementations.
  • DeFi Protocols: Automated Market Makers (AMMs), staking, lending/borrowing vaults.
  • Security: Built with OpenZeppelin libraries and formal verification patterns.
  • Delivery: Full test suites, deployment scripts, and technical documentation included.

A STRUCTURED APPROACH

Our Game Theory Audit Methodology

Our systematic audit framework deconstructs your StarkNet application's economic incentives and player behaviors to identify vulnerabilities that traditional security audits miss.

01

1. Incentive Mapping & State Analysis

We map all on-chain and off-chain incentives, token flows, and state transitions to build a complete model of your protocol's economic game. This identifies misaligned rewards, value extraction vectors, and unintended state locks.

2. Agent-Based Simulation

Using custom simulation frameworks, we model rational and adversarial actors (whales, arbitrageurs, griefers) to stress-test economic assumptions. This reveals Nash equilibria, oracle manipulation risks, and liquidity attack surfaces.

3. Parameter Stress Testing

We systematically vary key protocol parameters (fees, rewards, slashing, timelocks) to identify brittle configurations, death spirals, and governance attack vectors that could destabilize the system under market stress.

4. MEV & Frontrunning Analysis

We analyze transaction ordering dependencies and mempool visibility specific to StarkNet's sequencing to identify extractable value (MEV) opportunities that could be exploited to the detriment of regular users.

5. Formal Verification of Game Properties

Where applicable, we use formal methods to prove or disprove desired game-theoretic properties (e.g., "no profitable griefing attack exists", "liveness is guaranteed") using tools like Cairo's proof system.

Smart Contract Development

Secure, production-ready smart contracts built for scale and compliance.

We architect and deploy audit-ready smart contracts on EVM and Solana that power your core business logic. Our development process integrates security from day one, utilizing OpenZeppelin libraries and formal verification patterns to mitigate risks before the first line of code is written.

  • Custom Tokenomics & DeFi Protocols: Design and implement ERC-20, ERC-721, and complex ERC-4626 vaults with precise fee structures and governance.
  • Multi-Chain & Cross-Chain Logic: Build interoperable systems using Layer 2s (Arbitrum, Optimism) and bridges (Wormhole, LayerZero).
  • Gas Optimization: Achieve up to 40% lower transaction costs through meticulous bytecode efficiency and storage patterns.

We deliver a fully documented, tested, and deployable contract suite in as little as 2-4 weeks, turning your specification into a live, secure asset.

Game Theory Audit FAQs

Answers to the most common questions from CTOs and technical founders about our specialized Game Theory and Economic Security audits for StarkNet Cairo smart contracts.

Our standard audit engagement takes 2-3 weeks from kickoff to final report. This includes a 1-week deep-dive analysis, a 1-week review and validation phase with your team, and 3-5 days for report finalization. Complex protocols with multiple interacting contracts or novel mechanisms may extend to 4 weeks.
