Frequently Asked Questions

What exactly is smart contract consulting?

Smart contract consulting is a specialized service that provides expert guidance across the entire lifecycle of a smart contract. This includes initial strategy and use-case analysis, architectural design, secure coding, rigorous security audits, performance optimization, and deployment. Our goal is to ensure your smart contracts are not only functional but also secure, efficient, and perfectly aligned with your business objectives, effectively de-risking your investment in blockchain technology.

Our project is complex. How do you ensure the contracts are secure?

Security is the cornerstone of our process. We employ a multi-layered security and audit strategy that includes: 1) Automated analysis with industry-leading tools to catch common vulnerabilities. 2) Meticulous manual code review by at least two senior auditors to identify logical flaws. 3) Formal verification for mission-critical contracts to mathematically prove correctness. 4) Adherence to best practices like the Smart Contract Security Verification Standard (SCSVS). This comprehensive approach minimizes risk and protects your assets and reputation.

Can you help us with tokenomics and the business logic of our contracts?

Absolutely. Our consulting goes beyond just code. We have deep expertise in tokenomics design and modeling. We'll work with you to architect a sustainable economic model for your token, define its utility, and structure the smart contracts to enforce that logic flawlessly. We help you build a robust, viable ecosystem, not just a piece of software.

How much does smart contract consulting and auditing cost?

The cost varies based on the complexity and scope of the project. A standard security audit for a set of contracts might have a fixed price, while end-to-end consulting and development is typically based on a time and materials model. We provide transparent, detailed proposals after an initial free consultation to understand your needs. Our focus is on delivering value that far exceeds the investment by preventing costly exploits and ensuring project success.

What happens after the smart contract is deployed?

Our partnership doesn't end at deployment. We offer post-launch support and maintenance retainers to handle necessary upgrades, monitor contract performance, and respond to any emerging security threats. We believe in building long-term relationships and ensuring the continued success and security of your on-chain applications.
