overview
FULL-STACK INFRASTRUCTURE

Custom Blockchain Development

Build, deploy, and scale custom blockchain networks tailored to your business logic.

We architect and implement bespoke blockchain solutions from the ground up, moving beyond generic frameworks. Our team delivers production-ready networks with custom consensus mechanisms, governance models, and tokenomics designed for your specific use case—whether it's a private enterprise ledger or a public DeFi protocol.

  • Core Protocol Development: Custom Rust or Go clients, EVM/WASM execution layers, and consensus engines (Tendermint, HotStuff).
  • Full Node & Validator Infrastructure: Deployment, orchestration, and monitoring for >99.9% network uptime.
  • Smart Contract Suite: Development of core protocol logic in Solidity, Rust (ink!), or Move with formal verification.

We handle the entire stack so you can focus on product strategy, delivering a fully operational mainnet in 8-12 weeks.

PROVEN METHODOLOGY

Our End-to-End Migration Framework

A systematic, battle-tested process that de-risks your chain migration, accelerates time-to-market, and ensures zero downtime for your users.

01

Comprehensive Pre-Migration Audit

We analyze your existing EVM chain's architecture, smart contracts, and tooling to identify compatibility gaps, performance bottlenecks, and security risks before a single line of code is migrated.

OUR METHODOLOGY

How We Ensure a Flawless Migration

Our proven 5-phase migration framework, refined across 50+ EVM chain migrations, minimizes risk and ensures zero downtime for your dApp and users.

01

Comprehensive Pre-Migration Audit

We perform a deep technical analysis of your existing smart contracts, tokenomics, and infrastructure. This identifies critical dependencies, potential incompatibilities, and gas optimization opportunities before a single line of code is moved.

Technical & Commercial Questions

EVM Chain Migration FAQs

Answers to the most common questions CTOs and technical founders ask when evaluating an EVM chain migration partner.

For a standard dApp or protocol migration, our typical timeline is 4-8 weeks from kickoff to mainnet deployment. This includes 1-2 weeks for architecture review and planning, 2-4 weeks for development and internal testing, and 1-2 weeks for client testing, security audit integration, and final deployment. Complex DeFi protocols with custom bridges or oracles may extend to 12 weeks. We provide a detailed, phase-gated project plan in our initial proposal.
