Non-Custodial Staking Pool Development

Deploy a secure, transparent staking pool where users retain full custody of their assets. We build with delegatecall proxies, battle-tested withdrawal patterns, and on-chain verification for total operational transparency.

CORE SERVICE

Smart Contract Development

Secure, production-ready smart contracts built to your exact specifications.

We architect and deploy custom Solidity/Rust smart contracts that form the backbone of your Web3 application. Our development process is built for security-first execution and rapid deployment.

  • Full Lifecycle Development: From initial design and OpenZeppelin-based implementation to rigorous testing and mainnet deployment.
  • Protocol-Specific Expertise: Custom logic for ERC-20, ERC-721, ERC-1155, DeFi primitives, DAOs, and cross-chain bridges.
  • Guaranteed Security: Every contract undergoes manual review and automated analysis with tools like Slither and MythX before audit.

Deliver a battle-tested, gas-optimized smart contract system in as little as 2-4 weeks, reducing your technical risk and accelerating your go-to-market.

ENTERPRISE-GRADE FOUNDATION

Architecture Built for Security and Scale

Our non-custodial staking pools are engineered from the ground up for institutional-grade security and seamless scalability, ensuring your protocol's integrity and growth are never compromised.

01

Formally Verified Smart Contracts

Core staking logic is mathematically proven for correctness using tools like Certora and K-Framework, eliminating entire classes of vulnerabilities before deployment.

Frequently Asked Questions

Get clear answers on our development process, security, timelines, and support for building your staking pool.

A standard non-custodial staking pool with core features (deposit, stake, claim, withdraw) typically deploys in 2-4 weeks. Complex integrations (multi-chain, liquid staking derivatives, governance) can extend this to 6-8 weeks. We provide a detailed project plan with milestones after the initial technical scoping call.
