overview
CORE SERVICE

Smart Contract Development

Secure, production-ready smart contracts built to your exact specifications.

We architect, develop, and deploy custom Solidity/Rust smart contracts that form the immutable backbone of your application. Every line of code is written for security, gas efficiency, and audit-readiness from day one.

  • Full-Spectrum Development: From ERC-20 tokens and ERC-721 NFTs to complex DeFi protocols and DAO governance systems.
  • Security-First Process: Built with OpenZeppelin standards, subjected to internal audits, and prepared for third-party review.
  • Measurable Outcomes: Achieve >99.9% uptime, reduce gas costs by up to 40%, and launch your MVP in as little as 2-4 weeks.

We don't just write code; we deliver the secure, scalable foundation your Web3 product needs to launch with confidence and scale without limits.

STRESS TESTING FOR PAYMENT NETWORKS

Comprehensive Performance & Resilience Testing

We simulate real-world transaction loads and failure scenarios to validate your payment network's capacity, stability, and recovery protocols before you go live.

01

Peak Load & Throughput Testing

Benchmark your network's maximum TPS (transactions per second) under sustained high-volume conditions. We identify bottlenecks in consensus mechanisms, mempool management, and block propagation to ensure your network can handle Black Friday-level traffic.

> 10,000 TPS

< 2 sec
Target Latency
02

Network Partition & Fault Injection

Test your network's resilience to Byzantine failures, node outages, and network splits. We simulate malicious validators, DDoS attacks on RPC endpoints, and geographic isolation to validate your consensus layer's fault tolerance.

Smart Contract Gas & State Stress

Analyze how complex payment logic and high-frequency state updates impact network performance. We profile gas consumption, storage overhead, and EVM execution limits to prevent chain congestion and unpredictable fee spikes.

End-to-End Settlement Verification

Validate the complete payment lifecycle—from user initiation to on-chain finality and off-chain reconciliation. We test cross-shard transactions, bridge operations, and oracle price feeds under market volatility to ensure atomic settlement.

Load Balancer & Gateway Testing

Stress-test your API gateways, JSON-RPC endpoints, and load balancers that front your payment network. We ensure they can manage connection pools, request queuing, and rate limiting without dropping critical transaction submissions.

Our Proven Stress Testing Methodology

We don't just simulate traffic—we systematically break your payment network to expose critical vulnerabilities before your users do. Our battle-tested methodology delivers actionable insights to harden your infrastructure for real-world demand.

01

Protocol-Specific Load Simulation

We generate realistic transaction loads using actual smart contract calls (ERC-20 transfers, cross-chain swaps, NFT mints) to test your RPC nodes, sequencers, and validators under peak conditions.

Adversarial Network Conditions

We simulate real-world network degradation: 50% packet loss, 300ms latency spikes, and peer disconnections to test your node's resilience and failover mechanisms under hostile conditions.

State & Memory Exhaustion Attacks

We deliberately push your system to its limits with large state growth, memory leaks, and disk I/O saturation to identify bottlenecks before they cause chain halts or consensus failures.

Payment Network Stress Testing FAQs

Get clear answers on our methodology, timelines, deliverables, and how our stress testing service ensures your payment network's resilience and performance.

A comprehensive stress test for a payment network typically takes 2-3 weeks from kickoff to final report. This includes 1 week for environment setup and test design, 1 week for execution and data collection, and 3-5 days for analysis and report generation. For complex multi-chain or high-frequency payment systems, timelines may extend to 4 weeks.
