CORE SERVICE

Smart Contract Development

Secure, audited smart contracts built by experts for your Web3 application.

We deliver production-ready Solidity and Rust smart contracts with formal verification and comprehensive audit reports. Our process ensures your core logic is secure, gas-optimized, and upgradeable from day one.

  • Zero vulnerabilities in production deployments.
  • 40-60% gas optimization on average.
  • Full audit trail with OpenZeppelin Defender integration.

Deploy with confidence. Our contracts power protocols handling $500M+ in TVL.

We specialize in:

  • DeFi Primitives: Custom AMMs, lending/borrowing pools, yield aggregators.
  • NFT Ecosystems: ERC-721A, ERC-1155 with advanced minting and royalty mechanics.
  • Cross-Chain & Layer 2: Native development for Arbitrum, Optimism, Polygon, and Base.

PROVEN FRAMEWORK

Reduce Governance Risk and Accelerate Launch

Deploy your DAO with confidence using our battle-tested testing ground. We simulate real-world governance attacks and failure modes before you go live, ensuring your tokenomics and voting mechanisms are secure and effective.

01

Governance Attack Simulation

We execute simulated attacks like proposal spam, whale manipulation, and treasury drain scenarios to expose vulnerabilities in your governance logic before launch.

PROVEN METHODOLOGY

Our Delivery Process: From Sandbox to Production

A structured, four-phase approach to deliver a secure, battle-tested DAO framework. We move from concept to mainnet with rigorous validation at every step.

01

Phase 1: Strategy & Architecture

We define your governance model, tokenomics, and technical architecture. Deliverables include a detailed spec, smart contract scope, and a risk assessment report.

Client Value: Clear roadmap, aligned expectations, and a foundation built for security and scalability from day one.

1-2 weeks
Timeline

Key Deliverable
02

Phase 2: Development & Internal Testing

Our engineers build your custom DAO smart contracts (Governor, Token, Treasury) using audited patterns (OpenZeppelin). We run comprehensive unit and integration tests in a private sandbox.

Client Value: High-quality, modular code with zero vulnerabilities introduced in the initial build phase.

2-4 weeks
Timeline
100% Coverage

03

Phase 3: Security Audits & Testnet Deployment

Your contracts undergo a multi-layered review: automated analysis (Slither), internal peer review, and a formal audit by our partner security firms. We then deploy to a public testnet (e.g., Sepolia) for dry-run governance proposals.

Client Value: Third-party validated security and real-world testing that builds stakeholder confidence before mainnet launch.

Phase 4: Production Launch & Monitoring

We manage the mainnet deployment, verify all contract addresses on Etherscan, and set up real-time monitoring for proposal activity, treasury movements, and security events.

Client Value: A smooth, secure go-live with ongoing operational oversight, ensuring your DAO launches successfully and remains healthy.

DAO Testing Ground FAQs

Get specific answers about our DAO Testing Ground service, from deployment timelines to security and pricing.

A standard deployment takes 2-4 weeks from kickoff to launch. This includes smart contract development, frontend integration, and initial testing. Complex multi-governance or cross-chain setups may extend to 6-8 weeks. We provide a detailed project plan with weekly milestones.
