Institutional L2 Contract Migration

End-to-end migration of enterprise-grade smart contracts to Layer 2 with embedded compliance tooling, multi-sig governance, and regulatory reporting hooks for institutional clients.

overview
CORE SERVICE

Smart Contract Development

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

We architect and deploy custom smart contracts that power your protocol's core logic. Our development process is built for security and speed, delivering a 2-4 week MVP for new projects or integrating with existing systems.

  • Security-First Development: Code built on Solidity 0.8+ with OpenZeppelin libraries and internal audit practices.
  • Full-Stack Integration: Contracts designed for seamless interaction with your frontend, indexers, and oracles.
  • Protocol Expertise: ERC-20, ERC-721, ERC-1155, staking, governance, and custom DeFi mechanics.
  • Gas Optimization: Every contract is analyzed and refined for efficient on-chain execution to reduce user costs.

We deliver auditable, maintainable code that forms the unbreakable backbone of your application.

Compliance-First Migration Architecture

Engineered for regulated entities, our migration framework embeds compliance, security, and auditability into the core architecture, ensuring a seamless transition to Layer 2 without compromising on regulatory obligations.

01

Regulatory State Machine

A deterministic, on-chain module that enforces transaction-level compliance rules (e.g., OFAC screening, jurisdiction checks) before finality, providing a verifiable audit trail for regulators.

Non-Custodial Key Management

Secure, MPC-based key orchestration for multi-signature governance of migration contracts. Eliminates single points of failure while maintaining strict operational controls required for institutional custody.

Deterministic Finality Bridge

Custom-built cross-chain messaging layer with provable finality guarantees and fraud proofs. Designed for asset migrations where settlement certainty is non-negotiable.

PROVEN METHODOLOGY

Our 4-Phase Institutional Migration Process

A structured, security-first approach designed for financial institutions and high-value protocols. We deliver predictable timelines, zero-downtime transitions, and audited code.

01

Phase 1: Architecture & Risk Assessment

We conduct a comprehensive audit of your existing L1 contracts and define the optimal L2 architecture (ZK-Rollup, Optimistic Rollup, Validium). This includes a formal risk analysis for regulatory and operational compliance.

48-72 hrs
Initial Assessment

Phase 2: Secure Contract Migration

Our engineers rewrite and optimize your Solidity/Vyper contracts for the target L2 environment (Arbitrum, Optimism, zkSync, Starknet). All code follows OpenZeppelin standards and is prepared for third-party audit.
