CORE SERVICE
Smart Contract Development
Secure, audited smart contracts built to your exact specifications and deployed on-chain.
We architect and deploy production-grade smart contracts that power your core business logic. Our development process ensures security-first design, gas optimization, and full audit readiness from day one.
- Custom Logic: Build on
Solidity 0.8+withOpenZeppelinstandards forERC-20,ERC-721,ERC-1155, and bespoke protocols. - Security Focus: Every contract undergoes internal review against common vulnerabilities before external audit.
- Deployment & Verification: We handle mainnet deployment, contract verification on Etherscan, and initial testing.
Move from concept to a live, secure contract in as little as 2-4 weeks for an MVP.
We provide a complete delivery package:
- Full Source Code with comprehensive documentation.
- Deployment Scripts and environment configuration.
- Post-launch Support for upgrades and maintenance.
Technical & Commercial Considerations
Trade Finance Migration FAQs
Common questions from CTOs and product leads evaluating a blockchain migration for trade finance operations.
A standard trade finance platform migration takes 4-8 weeks from kickoff to mainnet deployment. This includes 1-2 weeks for discovery and smart contract design, 2-4 weeks for development and internal testing, and 1-2 weeks for client UAT and security audit integration. Complex integrations with existing ERP systems (SAP, Oracle) can extend this by 2-3 weeks.
