overview
CORE SERVICE

Smart Contract Development

Secure, production-ready smart contracts built by Web3-native engineers.

We architect and deploy custom smart contracts that are secure, gas-optimized, and tailored to your specific business logic. Our development process is built on audited patterns and rigorous testing to ensure reliability from day one.

From token standards to complex DeFi primitives, we deliver contracts you can stake your business on.

  • Comprehensive Development: ERC-20, ERC-721, ERC-1155, custom DeFi protocols, and DAO governance systems.
  • Security-First Approach: Multi-stage audits, formal verification with tools like Slither and MythX, and integration of OpenZeppelin libraries.
  • Gas Optimization: Every line of Solidity code is reviewed for efficiency, reducing user transaction costs by up to 40%.
  • Full Lifecycle Support: Development, deployment, verification on Etherscan, and ongoing maintenance with 99.9% uptime SLAs.

ZK-ROLLUP GAME ENGINEERING

Core Technical Capabilities

We architect and deploy production-ready StarkNet game contracts, delivering secure, scalable, and performant on-chain logic that drives player engagement and sustainable economies.

02

On-Chain Game Economy Design

Design and implement sustainable tokenomics, NFT ecosystems (ERC-721/1155), and reward mechanisms. We build provably fair systems for asset minting, trading, staking, and governance that incentivize long-term player retention.

03

ZK-Rollup Scaling & State Management

Architect game state and data structures optimized for StarkNet's zk-rollup. We design for minimal on-chain footprint, efficient storage patterns, and seamless L1<>L2 bridging to ensure low transaction costs and fast finality for players.

04

Security Audits & Formal Verification

Rigorous security-first development with peer review, static analysis, and integration of formal verification tools specific to Cairo. We build with audited libraries and prepare contracts for independent security audits by leading firms.

05

Off-Chain Indexer & Backend Integration

Build custom indexers and backend services to listen to on-chain events, manage player profiles, and serve game data. We ensure your frontend has real-time, reliable access to contract state and player activity.

06

Gas Optimization & Performance Tuning

Deep optimization of contract logic and storage to minimize StarkNet compute units (CU) and L1 settlement gas costs. We profile and refine contracts to ensure the lowest possible fees for end-users.

PROVEN METHODOLOGY

Our Development & Security Process

A rigorous, multi-stage process designed to deliver secure, high-performance StarkNet game contracts on time and within spec.

01

Architecture & Design Review

We begin with a collaborative deep-dive into your game's economic model and logic flow. Our experts design a Cairo contract architecture optimized for StarkNet's zk-rollup environment, ensuring efficient state management and composability.
