CORE SERVICE

Smart Contract Development

Secure, production-ready smart contracts built by Web3 experts.

We architect and deploy custom smart contracts that form the backbone of your protocol. Our development process is built on security-first principles using Solidity 0.8+, OpenZeppelin libraries, and rigorous testing frameworks like Hardhat and Foundry.

Deploy with confidence. Every contract undergoes a multi-stage audit process before mainnet launch.

Our full-cycle development delivers:

  • Gas-optimized code for lower transaction fees and better user experience.
  • Modular architecture for easy upgrades and future feature integration.
  • Comprehensive test suites with >95% coverage for reliability.
  • Full deployment support across EVM chains like Ethereum, Polygon, and Arbitrum.

We specialize in complex DeFi primitives and NFT mechanics:

  • DeFi: Custom AMMs, lending/borrowing protocols, yield aggregators, and derivative contracts.
  • NFTs: ERC-721A/1155 with advanced features like staking, royalties, and dynamic metadata.
  • Cross-chain: Secure bridge and messaging implementations using LayerZero or Wormhole.

Outcome: Go from concept to audited mainnet deployment in as little as 4-6 weeks. We provide complete documentation and handover, ensuring your team has full ownership and understanding.

ZK-ROLLUP SETTLEMENT EXPERTISE

Core Technical Capabilities We Deliver

We architect and deploy production-grade StarkNet settlement layers that provide the security of Ethereum with the scalability your application demands. Our focus is on delivering measurable infrastructure improvements.

01

Custom Cairo Smart Contracts

We design, develop, and audit high-performance smart contracts in Cairo 1.0, the native language of StarkNet. Our contracts implement gas-efficient patterns for DeFi, NFTs, and gaming, ensuring your logic executes at minimal cost.

Prover & Sequencer Infrastructure

We deploy and manage the critical infrastructure for your rollup: the sequencer for transaction ordering and the prover for generating STARK validity proofs. We ensure high availability and optimal performance for your network's core components.

L1-L2 Bridge Architecture

We build secure, non-custodial bridges for asset and data transfer between Ethereum (L1) and your StarkNet rollup (L2). Our implementations prioritize security audits and user experience for fast, trust-minimized withdrawals.

Frequently Asked Questions

Get clear answers on our StarkNet settlement layer development process, timelines, and security.

A standard StarkNet ZK-Rollup settlement layer with core functionalities (sequencer, prover, L1-L2 bridge) takes 4-8 weeks from kickoff to mainnet deployment. Complex integrations (e.g., custom validity conditions, multi-asset support) can extend this to 10-12 weeks. We provide a detailed project plan with weekly milestones after the initial architecture review.
