Smart Contract Development

Secure, production-ready smart contracts built for scale and compliance.

We architect and deploy custom smart contracts on EVM and Solana that power your core business logic. Our process delivers audit-ready code in 2-4 weeks, with a focus on gas optimization and upgradability patterns.

  • Security-First Development: Built with OpenZeppelin standards, formal verification, and comprehensive test suites covering 95%+ of code paths.
  • Protocol-Specific Expertise: ERC-20, ERC-721, ERC-1155, SPL, and custom standards for DeFi, NFTs, and DAOs.
  • Production Hardening: Includes pausability, access control, and proven upgrade paths using proxies.

We deliver contracts that are secure by design, reducing post-launch vulnerabilities and technical debt.
