Institutional Credential Lifecycle dApp

End-to-end development of white-label dApps for enterprises to issue, monitor, suspend, and revoke verifiable credentials at scale, with role-based admin controls and high-availability APIs.

overview
CORE SERVICE

Smart Contract Development

Secure, production-ready smart contracts built by Web3 experts to power your decentralized application.

We architect and deploy audit-ready smart contracts for tokens, DeFi protocols, and NFT ecosystems. Our team specializes in Solidity 0.8+ and Rust, implementing battle-tested patterns from OpenZeppelin to ensure security from day one.

Reduce your time-to-market from months to weeks with our proven development framework.

  • Custom Logic: Build bespoke ERC-20, ERC-721, or complex DeFi primitives like AMMs and lending pools.
  • Security-First: Every contract undergoes internal review against common vulnerabilities before external audit.
  • Gas Optimization: We minimize transaction costs, targeting up to 40% gas reduction versus unoptimized code.
  • Full Lifecycle Support: From initial design and testing to mainnet deployment and upgrade management via Transparent or UUPS proxies.

Core Capabilities of Your Credential Lifecycle Platform

A modular, secure platform designed for institutions to issue, manage, and verify digital credentials on-chain. We deliver production-ready infrastructure, not just prototypes.

01

W3C-Compliant VC Issuance

Issue tamper-proof Verifiable Credentials (VCs) as ERC-721/ERC-1155 tokens with full W3C compliance. Our SDKs enable batch issuance and revocation with a single transaction, reducing gas costs by up to 60%.

Standard Compliant

02

Decentralized Identifier (DID) Management

Implement and manage DIDs using ERC-1056 (Ethr-DID) or ERC-3643 (Tokenized Identities). We provide secure key rotation, delegation, and recovery workflows for institutional key custodians.

Zero-Knowledge Proof Verification

Enable selective disclosure and privacy-preserving verification with zk-SNARKs (Circom) or zk-STARKs. Prove credential attributes without revealing underlying data, built on industry-proven circuits.

Credential Status & Revocation Registry

Maintain real-time credential status using on-chain registries (ERC-3668) or off-chain accumulators. Our system supports instant revocation with audit trails compliant with GDPR right-to-erasure.

PROVEN PROCESS

Our Delivery Methodology: Secure, Scalable, On-Time

We deliver institutional-grade credential dApps through a structured, transparent process designed for compliance, security, and rapid time-to-market.

01

Secure Architecture & Audit

We build on audited smart contract libraries (OpenZeppelin) and implement role-based access control (RBAC) from day one. Every module undergoes internal security review before deployment to testnet.
