We architect and deploy purpose-built blockchain infrastructure that aligns with your specific use case, not a generic framework. Our full-stack approach delivers a production-ready network with consensus mechanisms, governance models, and native tokenomics designed for your needs.
Disaster Recovery Planning for Payment Systems
Custom Blockchain Development
End-to-end development of custom blockchain networks, sidechains, and L2 solutions tailored to your business logic.
- Consensus & Protocol Design: Custom
Proof-of-Stake,Proof-of-Authority, or hybrid models. - Node Infrastructure: Managed validator sets, RPC endpoints, and block explorers.
- Cross-Chain Bridges: Secure, audited bridges to Ethereum, Polygon, and other major networks.
- Governance Systems: On-chain DAO tooling and upgrade mechanisms for decentralized control.
Go from concept to mainnet in 8-12 weeks with a dedicated team of protocol engineers. We handle the core protocol, node deployment, and documentation so you can focus on your application layer.
Our Disaster Recovery Planning Framework
A structured, four-phase framework designed to build resilient payment systems that can withstand protocol failures, exchange outages, and smart contract exploits, ensuring business continuity and user trust.
Risk Assessment & Impact Analysis
We conduct a comprehensive audit of your payment stack to identify single points of failure, from RPC dependencies to smart contract admin keys. This quantifies the financial and operational impact of potential disruptions.
Recovery Strategy & Architecture Design
Design and document failover mechanisms for critical components: multi-provider RPC configurations, hot/cold wallet setups, and contract upgrade/migration paths. We prioritize strategies that minimize downtime and data loss.
Plan Development & Automation
We build executable runbooks and automated scripts for incident response. This includes pre-signed transactions for emergency pauses, automated health checks for node infrastructure, and clear escalation protocols for your team.
Testing, Training & Continuous Improvement
Execute tabletop exercises and simulated disaster scenarios (e.g., mainnet fork testing) to validate the plan. We train your DevOps and on-call engineers and establish a process for quarterly plan reviews and updates.
Business Outcomes: Resilient, Trustworthy Payments
Our disaster recovery planning delivers measurable improvements to your payment system's reliability and user trust. These are the concrete outcomes you can expect.
Zero Downtime Payments
Automated failover to redundant blockchain nodes and cloud infrastructure ensures payment processing continues uninterrupted during primary system failures.
Immutable Transaction Integrity
Every payment state change is cryptographically secured on-chain, providing an irrefutable, tamper-proof audit trail for compliance and dispute resolution.
Sub-Second Recovery Point Objective (RPO)
Continuous state synchronization across hot/warm standby systems ensures minimal data loss, recovering to a state less than one second before an outage.
Predictable Cost Structure
Eliminate surprise costs from extended outages. Our fixed-fee model with defined SLAs provides financial predictability for your payment operations.
Enhanced User Trust & Retention
Demonstrate operational resilience to your users. Reliable payment uptime directly translates to higher customer confidence and reduced churn.

Our 4-Phase Delivery Methodology
A proven, systematic approach to building and validating disaster recovery systems for mission-critical payment infrastructure. We deliver predictable outcomes, not just plans.
1. Risk Assessment & Architecture Design
We conduct a comprehensive audit of your payment stack, identifying single points of failure and designing a resilient multi-chain or multi-validator architecture. This phase establishes the technical blueprint and recovery objectives (RTO/RPO).
2. Smart Contract & Failover Development
Our engineers build and deploy the core recovery logic: automated failover contracts, cross-chain messaging bridges, and state synchronization mechanisms. All code follows OpenZeppelin standards and is built for gas efficiency.
3. Staged Testing & Simulation
We execute controlled disaster scenarios in a forked mainnet environment. This includes simulating validator failures, RPC endpoint outages, and bridge exploits to validate recovery triggers and data integrity under stress.
4. Deployment & Continuous Monitoring
We deploy the validated system to production with zero downtime. Implementation includes 24/7 monitoring dashboards, alerting for anomalous states, and scheduled chaos engineering drills to ensure ongoing resilience.
Smart Contract Development
Secure, production-ready smart contracts for DeFi, NFTs, and enterprise applications.
We architect and deploy audited, gas-optimized smart contracts on EVM and Solana. Our contracts are built with OpenZeppelin standards and undergo rigorous security reviews before mainnet deployment.
- Custom Logic: Tailored
ERC-20,ERC-721, andERC-1155tokens, DeFi protocols, and DAO governance systems. - Security First: Multi-stage audit process with formal verification for critical functions.
- Gas Efficiency: Optimized code to reduce user transaction costs by up to 40%.
- Full Ownership: You receive all source code, audit reports, and deployment scripts.
Deploy a secure, custom token or DeFi primitive in as little as 2 weeks with our battle-tested development framework.
