overview
CORE SERVICE
Smart Contract Development
Secure, gas-optimized smart contracts built to your exact specifications.
- Custom Token Standards:
ERC-20,ERC-721,ERC-1155, and bespoke implementations. - DeFi & dApp Logic: Automated market makers, staking pools, governance systems, and multi-sig wallets.
- Gas Optimization: Every contract is profiled and refined for up to 40% lower transaction costs.
- Full Audit Trail: Code review, unit/integration testing, and third-party audit preparation.
We deliver battle-tested contracts that power your core business logic, reducing time-to-market from months to as little as 2 weeks for an MVP.

VALIDATOR SELECTION ENGINE
Core Module Capabilities We Implement
We build custom Cosmos SDK modules that define how validators are chosen and rewarded, giving you precise control over network security and decentralization.
06
Security Audits & Formal Verification
Every module undergoes rigorous security review using static analysis, property-based testing, and formal verification tools specific to Cosmos SDK to eliminate critical vulnerabilities.

PROVEN PROCESS
Our Development Methodology
We deliver production-ready validator selection modules through a rigorous, security-first development lifecycle designed for enterprise-grade reliability and rapid deployment.
01
Architecture & Design Review
We begin with a deep technical assessment of your Cosmos SDK chain's consensus parameters, governance model, and economic security requirements to design a bespoke validator selection logic.

Frequently Asked Questions
Get clear answers on our development process, security, and support for your custom validator selection logic.
A standard module with well-defined requirements takes 4-6 weeks from specification to audit-ready code. Complex logic, such as multi-asset staking or novel slashing conditions, can extend this to 8-12 weeks. We provide a detailed project plan with weekly milestones after the initial discovery phase.
