We architect and deploy production-grade smart contracts that form the foundation of your protocol. Our development process is built on security-first principles, utilizing battle-tested patterns from OpenZeppelin and rigorous internal audits before deployment to EVM or Solana.
Validator Set Coordination for Cross-Rollup Consensus
Custom Smart Contract Development
Secure, gas-optimized smart contracts built by Web3-native engineers.
- Token Standards: Custom
ERC-20,ERC-721, andERC-1155implementations with advanced features like minting, burning, and governance hooks. - DeFi Primitives: Automated Market Makers (AMMs), staking pools, yield aggregators, and lending/borrowing logic.
- Enterprise Logic: Multi-signature wallets, vesting schedules, and custom business logic for real-world asset (RWA) tokenization.
We deliver fully documented, upgradeable contracts with a clear roadmap for future iterations, ensuring your core logic is both robust and adaptable.
Core Components We Deliver
We engineer and operate the critical coordination layer for your cross-rollup ecosystem. Each component is built for high availability, security, and seamless integration.
Multi-Rollup Validator Client
A hardened, protocol-agnostic client that actively participates in consensus across Arbitrum, Optimism, zkSync, and other L2s. Implements slashing protection and automated failover.
Secure Key Management System
HSM-backed, multi-party computation (MPC) for validator key custody. Eliminates single points of failure and ensures non-custodial security for your staked assets.
Real-Time Monitoring & Alerting
Comprehensive dashboards tracking validator health, performance metrics, and cross-chain message finality. Get instant alerts for missed attestations or slashing risks.
Governance & Upgrade Coordination
Automated tooling for managing validator set changes, protocol upgrades, and emergency exits across all supported rollups without service disruption.
Cross-Chain Message Relayer
High-availability service that guarantees delivery of consensus proofs and state updates between your coordinated L2s and the Ethereum L1 settlement layer.
Compliance & Reporting Suite
Automated generation of staking rewards reports, slashing event logs, and regulatory-ready audit trails for all validator activities across your rollup set.
Business Outcomes of Shared Security
Our Validator Set Coordination service delivers measurable infrastructure advantages, turning cross-rollup consensus from a technical challenge into a strategic asset for your protocol.
Accelerated Time-to-Market
Deploy a production-ready, battle-tested validator set in under 2 weeks, not months. We handle the complex coordination, slashing logic, and multi-chain deployment so you can focus on your core product.
Capital Efficiency & Reduced Overhead
Eliminate the multi-million dollar capital lockup and operational burden of running your own validators. Our shared security model provides enterprise-grade validation without the upfront stake or ongoing DevOps costs.
Enhanced Protocol Security & Resilience
Leverage a globally distributed, fault-tolerant validator network with a 99.9% uptime SLA. Our coordination layer enforces strict slashing conditions and provides real-time monitoring to protect against liveness and safety failures.
Seamless Cross-Chain Interoperability
Achieve secure, trust-minimized consensus across Ethereum L2s (Optimism, Arbitrum, zkSync) and app-chains (Polygon CDK, OP Stack). Our service ensures consistent finality and message ordering for unified dApp logic.

Our Development & Security Methodology
Our battle-tested process for delivering secure, high-performance validator coordination systems. We focus on architectural rigor and operational excellence to ensure your cross-rollup consensus is reliable from day one.
Architecture & Protocol Design
We design fault-tolerant validator set architectures using established patterns like BFT consensus (e.g., Tendermint, HotStuff) and secure multi-party computation (sMPC) for key management. This ensures liveness and safety across heterogeneous rollup environments.
Smart Contract Development & Auditing
Development of on-chain coordination contracts (e.g., slashing, rewards distribution) in Solidity/Vyper, following OpenZeppelin standards. All contracts undergo internal review and are prepared for formal verification by leading security firms.
Validator Node Implementation
We build and containerize high-availability validator client software with automated failover, real-time health monitoring, and seamless integration with rollup sequencers and data availability layers.
Security-First Deployment
Managed deployment on your infrastructure (AWS, GCP, bare metal) using Infrastructure-as-Code (Terraform). Includes comprehensive setup of monitoring (Prometheus/Grafana), alerting, and secure key injection via HSMs or cloud KMS.
Continuous Monitoring & Incident Response
Proactive 24/7 monitoring of consensus participation, slashing conditions, and cross-chain message delivery. We provide defined playbooks for incident response and regular health reports to ensure ongoing system integrity.
Documentation & Knowledge Transfer
We deliver complete technical documentation, operational runbooks, and conduct training sessions for your team. Ensures you have full ownership and understanding of the validator coordination system post-handover.
Validator Set Coordination: Key Questions
Addressing the most common questions from CTOs and technical founders evaluating cross-rollup consensus infrastructure.
We deliver a production-ready, coordinated validator set in 3-5 weeks from kickoff. This includes protocol integration, custom slashing logic development, key ceremony orchestration, and a full security audit review. For standard EVM rollups, deployment often lands on the shorter end of this range.
