Privacy-Focused Dark Pool Implementation

We design and deploy secure, on-chain dark pools using zero-knowledge proofs or trusted execution environments. Enable institutions to execute large trades discreetly, protecting intent and minimizing market impact.

overview
CORE SERVICE

Smart Contract Development

Secure, production-ready smart contracts built by Web3 experts for your token, DeFi, or NFT project.

We architect and deploy custom smart contracts that form the secure, immutable backbone of your application. Our development process is built on audited security patterns and delivers gas-optimized code for predictable, low-cost operations.

  • Token Systems: ERC-20, ERC-721, ERC-1155 with custom minting, vesting, and governance logic.
  • DeFi Protocols: Automated Market Makers (AMMs), staking pools, yield aggregators, and lending vaults.
  • Enterprise Logic: Multi-signature wallets, access control systems, and custom business logic for on-chain operations.

We deliver a fully tested, documented, and deployable contract suite in 2-4 weeks.

Every contract undergoes rigorous testing (unit, integration, fuzzing) and a formal verification audit before mainnet deployment. We provide a comprehensive security report and post-deployment monitoring support.

ARCHITECTURE & SECURITY

Core Technical Capabilities

Our implementation combines battle-tested cryptographic primitives with a robust, scalable infrastructure designed for institutional-grade privacy and performance.

01

Zero-Knowledge Order Matching

Implement MPC-based or zk-SNARK order matching to conceal order size, price, and participant identity until settlement. Ensures front-running resistance and regulatory compliance.

02

Secure Multi-Party Computation (MPC) Vaults

Distributed key management for pooled liquidity using threshold signatures. Eliminates single points of failure and provides non-custodial security for participant funds.

Custom Settlement Layer

Build a dedicated settlement smart contract on Ethereum L2s (Arbitrum, zkSync) or app-chains (Polygon Supernets) for finality, minimizing on-chain footprint and gas costs.

Compliance & Audit Trail

Design an encrypted, permissioned log for regulators and auditors using Merkle trees. Provides transaction non-repudiation and selective disclosure without leaking trading intent.

Business Outcomes for Your Trading Desk

Our privacy-focused dark pool implementation delivers measurable improvements in execution quality, operational security, and compliance readiness for institutional trading.

01

Zero-Knowledge Order Matching

We implement zk-SNARKs (using Circom or Halo2) to validate trades without revealing order details, ensuring complete pre-trade privacy. This prevents front-running and information leakage.

Regulatory-Compliant Settlement

Our architecture includes on-chain transaction privacy with selective disclosure for regulators. We build audit trails using Aztec or Aleo for compliance with MiCA and FATF Travel Rule requirements.

Institutional-Grade Liquidity Routing

Connect to aggregated CEX/DEX liquidity (via 0x, 1inch) with MEV protection. Our smart order router finds the best execution price while shielding intent from public mempools.

Frequently Asked Questions

Get clear, technical answers on how we deliver institutional-grade private trading infrastructure.

From architecture to mainnet launch, a standard privacy-focused dark pool deployment takes 6-10 weeks. This includes 2 weeks for design and smart contract development, 3-4 weeks for core protocol implementation (ZKPs, order matching), 2 weeks for security audits and testing, and 1-2 weeks for deployment and integration. Complex features like cross-chain settlement or custom compliance modules can extend the timeline.
