We architect and build production-grade decentralized applications. Our full-cycle development delivers a complete, audited, and deployable product—not just a proof-of-concept. We specialize in DeFi protocols, NFT marketplaces, and enterprise-grade dApps.
DAO Governance Risk Assessment
Custom Blockchain Development
End-to-end blockchain application development from smart contracts to user interfaces.
From a 2-week MVP to a multi-chain ecosystem, we own the entire technical delivery so you can focus on your business.
- Smart Contract Suite:
Solidity/Rustdevelopment withOpenZeppelinstandards, comprehensive testing, and formal verification. - Frontend & Backend:
React/Next.jsdApp interfaces, secureNode.jsindexers, and real-time data pipelines. - Infrastructure & DevOps: Multi-chain deployment, CI/CD for smart contracts, and 24/7 monitoring with 99.9% uptime SLAs.
- Security First: Every project includes third-party audits from firms like CertiK or Quantstamp before mainnet launch.
Our Governance Risk Assessment Methodology
A systematic, four-phase approach to identify, quantify, and mitigate critical vulnerabilities in your DAO's governance structure, ensuring resilience and long-term viability.
Phase 1: Architecture & Smart Contract Audit
We conduct a deep technical audit of your governance smart contracts (GovernorAlpha/OpenZeppelin, Compound-style) and treasury management modules. Our analysis focuses on vote manipulation, proposal lifecycle flaws, and privilege escalation risks.
Phase 2: Tokenomics & Incentive Analysis
We model your token distribution, voting power concentration, and delegation mechanics to identify Sybil attack vectors, voter apathy risks, and incentive misalignments that could lead to governance capture.
Phase 3: Process & Operational Review
We evaluate your proposal submission workflow, voting parameters (quorum, threshold, timelocks), and multi-sig configurations. This identifies bottlenecks and centralization risks in day-to-day operations.
Phase 4: Risk Scoring & Actionable Report
You receive a prioritized risk matrix with CVSS-style scoring (Critical/High/Medium/Low) and a clear remediation roadmap. This includes specific code patches, parameter adjustments, and process improvements.
Outcomes: Secure, Resilient Governance
Our DAO Governance Risk Assessment provides actionable intelligence, not just a report. We deliver a clear roadmap to mitigate vulnerabilities and build a foundation for long-term operational security and community trust.
Comprehensive Risk Matrix
Receive a prioritized vulnerability matrix covering smart contract logic, treasury management, voting mechanisms, and social engineering vectors. We quantify risk impact and likelihood for clear mitigation planning.
Smart Contract Security Audit
In-depth review of your governance contracts (e.g., GovernorAlpha/Omega, Timelock, Token) by our senior Solidity engineers. Includes gas optimization and upgrade path analysis.
Governance Process Hardening
Analysis and recommendations for proposal lifecycle, quorum settings, veto powers, and emergency procedures to prevent deadlocks, whale dominance, and protocol capture.
Treasury & Multisig Security
Assessment of fund custody, signer policies, and transaction workflows. We provide best practices for Gnosis Safe, multi-chain asset management, and withdrawal limits.
Actionable Remediation Roadmap
A step-by-step implementation guide with severity-based prioritization (Critical, High, Medium). Includes code snippets, configuration changes, and communication templates for your community.
Compliance & Reporting Package
Formal audit report suitable for investor due diligence and regulatory review. Includes a public executive summary to build trust with your token holders and ecosystem partners.
