Institutional MPC Sub-Account Custody Development

We build secure, non-custodial custody infrastructure for fintechs and neobanks using Multi-Party Computation (MPC). Our solutions secure private keys across sub-accounts, eliminating single points of failure and providing institution-grade security.

CORE SERVICE

Smart Contract Development

Secure, audited smart contracts built to your exact specifications.

We architect, develop, and deploy production-ready smart contracts that form the immutable logic of your Web3 application. Our process ensures security, gas efficiency, and compliance from day one.

  • Full Lifecycle Support: From initial concept and Solidity/Rust development to deployment on EVM/Solana and post-launch maintenance.
  • Security-First Approach: All code follows OpenZeppelin standards and undergoes rigorous internal audits before external review.
  • Gas Optimization: We write contracts that minimize transaction costs, a critical factor for user adoption and protocol sustainability.

We deliver battle-tested contracts that handle real value, not just proof-of-concepts.

Our team specializes in:

  • Custom Tokenomics: ERC-20, ERC-721, ERC-1155, and bespoke token models with vesting, staking, and governance modules.
  • DeFi Primitives: Automated Market Makers (AMMs), lending/borrowing pools, yield aggregators, and derivative contracts.
  • Enterprise Logic: Multi-signature wallets, asset management systems, and verifiable supply chain tracking.

Typical Deliverables & Timeline:

  • MVP in 2-4 weeks: A functional, audited core contract suite.
  • Complete technical documentation and deployment scripts.
  • Integration support for your front-end and backend teams.

We mitigate your biggest risks: security vulnerabilities, inefficient code, and regulatory missteps.

ENTERPRISE-GRADE FOUNDATION

Core Architecture of Our MPC Custody Solution

Our institutional MPC custody is built on a battle-tested, modular architecture designed for security, compliance, and operational efficiency. We deliver a production-ready foundation, not just a toolkit.

01

Multi-Party Computation Engine

Proprietary MPC protocol with N-of-N and M-of-N threshold schemes for flexible governance. Eliminates single points of failure and private key exposure, ensuring assets are never at rest in a complete form.

Hierarchical Deterministic (HD) Wallet Structure

Enterprise-grade BIP-32/44/85 compliant wallet architecture enabling unlimited sub-accounts under a single master seed. Each client, fund, or department gets a fully isolated, auditable wallet tree.

Business Outcomes for Your Fintech or Neobank

Our Institutional MPC Sub-Account Custody development delivers concrete, measurable results. We focus on the technical outcomes that directly impact your product's security, speed to market, and operational efficiency.

01

Multi-Party Computation (MPC) Custody Engine

We build a production-ready custody core using MPC protocols (GG18/GG20) with threshold signatures. This eliminates single points of failure, providing bank-grade security without a single private key ever being fully assembled.
