Blockchain Development

I build blockchain systems that institutional desks and compliance teams can actually work with — policy-enforced transactions, real-time risk scoring, SOC2-ready audit trails, and smart contracts that pass security reviews without a rewrite.

What you walk away with

  • Smart contract architecture and implementation (Cosmos SDK / Rust / Solidity)
  • Compliance layer — capital controls, transaction limits, KYC hooks, real-time risk scoring
  • SOC2-ready audit trail with immutable evidence generation
  • On-chain policy enforcement with governance upgrade paths
  • Security audit readiness package — test coverage, static analysis, formal verification scope
  • Integration documentation for institutional custody and trading systems

Engagement model

01

Architecture & Compliance Mapping

Protocol Design

2–3 weeks. Define the blockchain architecture, compliance requirements, and technical trade-offs. Includes regulatory mapping.

02

Smart Contracts & Policy Layer

Core Build

8–16 weeks. Core protocol implementation — smart contracts, compliance hooks, risk scoring, and governance mechanisms.

03

System Integration & Audit Prep

Integration

4–8 weeks. Connect to existing custody, trading, and reporting systems. Prepare for security audit and compliance review.

04

Deployment & Monitoring

Launch

2–4 weeks. Mainnet or testnet deployment, monitoring setup, incident response runbooks, and team knowledge transfer.

Frequently asked questions

Which blockchains and protocols do you work with?
My primary experience is with Cosmos SDK for sovereign chain development, Rust-based smart contracts (Solana, CosmWasm), and Solidity for EVM-compatible chains. I also have experience with Filecoin and Arweave for decentralised storage integrations. I choose the protocol based on your compliance requirements, throughput needs, and existing ecosystem constraints.
Can you build a DeFi product that passes regulatory scrutiny?
Yes — and this is a core specialisation. I have shipped the ChainTrust Compliance Engine, a real-time policy layer for institutional DeFi desks that passed SOC2 audit with automated evidence trails while unlocking $120M in tradable volume. The key is designing compliance into the protocol from Day 1, not as a wrapper on top.
Do you do smart contract security audits?
I prepare smart contracts for third-party security audits rather than performing the audits myself (audits should be independent). This includes: full test coverage, static analysis with Slither and Mythril, manual review for common vulnerability patterns, and a written findings report. I work with your preferred audit firm or can recommend one.
