SECURE FOUNDATIONS
Custom Smart Contract Development
Production-ready smart contracts built for security, scalability, and long-term maintainability.
From tokenomics to complex DeFi logic, we translate your business requirements into efficient, gas-optimized Solidity or Rust (
Solana) code.
- End-to-End Development: Full lifecycle support from design and
ERC-20/ERC-721implementation to deployment and verification on mainnet. - Security & Audits: Proactive vulnerability scanning and preparation for third-party audits from firms like CertiK or Quantstamp.
- Gas Optimization: Code engineered for minimum transaction costs and maximum user efficiency.
- Upgradeability Patterns: Implementation of secure proxy patterns (
TransparentProxy,UUPS) for future-proof, non-breaking upgrades.

BUSINESS IMPERATIVES
Why Integrate Transaction Privacy?
Privacy is no longer a niche feature but a core requirement for competitive DeFi, enterprise, and high-value applications. Our integration delivers compliant, on-chain privacy to protect your users and your business.
01
Protect User & Business Data
Shield transaction amounts, wallet balances, and counterparty relationships from public exposure. Prevent front-running, data harvesting, and competitive intelligence leaks that can harm your users and your market position.

Frequently Asked Questions
Get clear answers about integrating advanced transaction privacy into your NEAR-based application.
A standard integration of a privacy layer like Nightfall or ZK-based solutions takes 3-6 weeks from kickoff to mainnet deployment. This includes architecture design, smart contract development, frontend integration, security audit review, and deployment. Complex protocols with custom logic may extend to 8-10 weeks. We provide a detailed project plan within the first week.
