overview
FULL-STACK ENGINEERING

Custom Blockchain Development

End-to-end blockchain application development from smart contracts to user-facing dApps.

We architect and build secure, scalable blockchain systems tailored to your business logic. Our full-cycle development delivers production-ready applications, not just proof-of-concepts.

  • Core Smart Contracts: Custom Solidity/Rust development with OpenZeppelin security patterns and gas optimization.
  • Full-Stack dApps: Frontend (React/Next.js) and backend (Node.js/TheGraph) integration with wallets like MetaMask and WalletConnect.
  • Deployment & DevOps: Automated CI/CD pipelines, mainnet deployment, and infrastructure management for EVM chains, Solana, or Cosmos.

We deliver a complete, audited MVP in 4-6 weeks, including comprehensive documentation and a clear path to scaling.

Our process is built for technical leaders:

  • Architecture Review: We design systems for 99.9% uptime and future upgrades.
  • Security-First Development: All code undergoes internal review and is prepared for third-party audits.
  • Ownership & Handoff: You receive all source code, IP rights, and deployment scripts.
