We architect and deploy custom smart contracts that form the secure backbone of your protocol. Our battle-tested development process, refined from auditing top-tier projects, ensures your logic is gas-optimized, upgradeable, and secure by design.
Smart Contract Audit for Tax Logic Vulnerabilities
Smart Contract Development
Secure, production-ready smart contracts built by engineers who have audited over $2B in DeFi TVL.
From initial concept to mainnet deployment, we manage the full lifecycle with rigorous testing and documentation.
- Protocol Development: Custom
ERC-20,ERC-721, AMMs, lending/borrowing logic, and governance systems. - Security First: Built with
OpenZeppelinstandards, comprehensive unit/integration tests, and pre-audit reviews. - Full Deployment: End-to-end support on Ethereum, L2s (Arbitrum, Optimism), and Solana, including verification and monitoring setup.
What Our Specialized Tax Logic Audit Covers
Our audit goes beyond standard security checks to scrutinize the financial integrity of your token's tax mechanisms. We ensure your contract's economic model is robust, compliant, and resilient to manipulation.
Fee & Slippage Mechanism Review
We analyze buy/sell/transfer tax logic for correctness, ensuring fees are calculated, collected, and distributed as intended without rounding errors or reentrancy risks that could drain the treasury.
Liquidity & Treasury Fund Security
Verification that taxed tokens and native currency are securely routed to designated wallets (e.g., marketing, liquidity pool) and are protected from unauthorized withdrawal or misallocation.
Whitelist & Exemption Logic
Audit of functions that exempt addresses (e.g., DEX pools, treasury) from taxes. We check for privilege escalation, improper access control, and logic flaws that could bypass fees.
Rebase & Reflection Token Mechanics
In-depth analysis of complex tokenomics, including automatic rebasing calculations, reward distribution fairness, and prevention of balance manipulation during tax events.
Oracle & Price Feed Integration
For dynamic fee models, we assess dependency on external price data (Chainlink, Pyth) for manipulation resistance, correct usage, and secure fallback mechanisms.
Compliance & Regulatory Alignment
We review tax logic against common regulatory red flags, ensuring mechanisms do not inadvertently create securities-like characteristics or enable wash trading.
Why a Focused Tax Audit is Critical for Payment Platforms
Generic smart contract audits miss the complex financial logic that defines payment platforms. Our targeted audit isolates and validates your tax, fee, and settlement calculations to prevent revenue loss and compliance failures.
Prevent Revenue Leakage
We mathematically verify every fee calculation, royalty distribution, and tax withholding function. Identifies logic errors that can silently drain 5-15% of platform revenue.
Ensure Regulatory Compliance
Audit for adherence to financial regulations like FATF Travel Rule, AML checks, and jurisdiction-specific tax reporting. Avoids penalties and enables seamless banking partnerships.
Secure Multi-Token Economics
Stress-test complex economic models involving stablecoins, governance tokens, and NFTs. Validates rebates, staking rewards, and cross-chain fee mechanics under volatile conditions.
Eliminate Settlement Disputes
Formally verify the deterministic outcome of every payment transaction. Guarantees users and merchants receive exact, auditable amounts, building essential trust.
Future-Proof Protocol Upgrades
Our audit includes a security model for upgradeable contracts and governance proposals. Ensures new tax logic or fee changes deploy without introducing vulnerabilities.
Attract Enterprise & Banking Partners

Frequently Asked Questions
Get clear answers on our specialized audit process for identifying and mitigating tax logic vulnerabilities in DeFi, NFT, and token protocols.
A tax logic vulnerability is a flaw in the code that governs transaction fees, tokenomics, or reward distribution. This can lead to incorrect fee calculations, loss of protocol revenue, or unintended token inflation. Our audits specifically target functions like _transfer, fee-on-transfer mechanisms, staking rewards, and buy/sell tax logic to ensure financial integrity.
