Frequently Asked Questions
Get clear answers on timelines, costs, and technical specifics for your dedicated derivatives trading platform.
From initial design to mainnet launch, a standard derivatives-focused AppChain deployment takes 4-8 weeks. This includes 1-2 weeks for architecture design and smart contract development, 2-3 weeks for core chain customization and testing, and 1-2 weeks for deployment and final integration. Complex features like cross-margin systems or novel oracle integrations can extend the timeline, which we scope and agree upon upfront.
