ENTERPRISE-GRADE SECURITY
Core System Capabilities
Our Staking Key Management System is engineered for institutional-grade security and operational resilience, enabling you to scale your staking operations with confidence.
01
Hardware Security Module (HSM) Integration
Private keys are generated, stored, and signed within FIPS 140-2 Level 3 certified HSMs. Eliminates single points of failure and provides cryptographic isolation from network threats.

02
Multi-Party Computation (MPC) Wallets
Implement threshold signatures (t-of-n) to distribute key shards across geographically separated nodes. Achieve governance control without relying on a single entity or seed phrase.

CORE SERVICE
Smart Contract Development
Secure, production-ready smart contracts built by Web3-native engineers.
We architect and deploy custom smart contracts for DeFi, NFTs, and enterprise applications. Our development process is built on security-first principles with formal verification, comprehensive unit testing, and gas optimization.
- Audit-Ready Code: Contracts are built with
OpenZeppelinstandards and include NatSpec documentation. - Multi-Chain Deployment: Deploy to
EVMchains (Ethereum, Polygon, Arbitrum) orSolana. - Full Lifecycle Support: From initial design and development to mainnet deployment and post-launch monitoring.
Reduce your time-to-market and technical risk with battle-tested contracts that have secured over $50M+ in TVL for our clients.
Technical & Commercial Details
Key Management Questions, Answered
Clear answers to the most common questions CTOs and founders ask when evaluating a staking key management system.
A standard deployment for a multi-chain staking validator with our modular framework takes 2-4 weeks. Complex integrations with existing custody solutions or custom HSM requirements can extend this to 6-8 weeks. We provide a detailed project plan within 3 business days of scoping.
