Web3 and blockchain solutions we build
Pharos Production applies its full-cycle software development expertise to deliver tailored solutions for crypto, web3 and blockchain businesses.
Crypto Wallet Development
Pharos Production builds multi-chain crypto wallets with hot and cold storage, biometric authentication and hardware wallet integration. We use MPC (Multi-Party Computation) key management because it eliminates single points of failure without requiring users to manage seed phrases. Our wallets support Ethereum, Solana, Polygon and 20+ EVM-compatible networks with security audit at every release. Each wallet integrates with our dApp development platform for seamless Web3 interactions. See the PumpTap Wallet case study.
Cryptocurrency Exchange & Trading Platform
Launch a centralized or decentralized crypto exchange with sub-millisecond order matching, deep liquidity management and built-in KYC/AML compliance. Pharos Production delivers exchange platforms on high-performance back-end architecture as part of our Web3 development services. Our exchange engines process 100K+ transactions per second using event-driven microservices, matching the throughput benchmarks set by leading Layer-2 scaling solutions.
Smart Contract Development & Auditing
Smart contracts are self-executing programs deployed on blockchain networks that automatically enforce agreements without intermediaries. Pharos Production develops and audits smart contracts for tokens, NFTs, DeFi protocols and custom business logic on Ethereum, Solana, Polygon and other EVM-compatible chains. With Chainalysis reporting over $3.8 billion lost to smart contract exploits in 2022, every Pharos contract undergoes formal verification and multi-layer security audits.
DeFi Platform Development
Automated market makers (AMM) – protocols that enable token trading without traditional order books – yield aggregators, lending pools and cross-chain bridges – Pharos Production builds the full DeFi (decentralized finance) stack. Our DeFi development services include formally verified smart contracts, liquidity bootstrapping mechanisms and governance modules for token holders. According to DeFi Llama (2024), the top DeFi protocols collectively manage over $100 billion in total value locked, underscoring the need for secure, audited smart contract infrastructure.
NFT Marketplace Development
An NFT marketplace enables users to mint, buy, sell and trade non-fungible tokens. Pharos Production builds NFT platforms through our NFT marketplace development service with modern front-end interfaces, on-chain royalty enforcement (critical since off-chain royalties are easily bypassed), auction mechanics and multi-chain support for Ethereum, Solana and Polygon collections.
Tokenization Platform & Custom Token Development
A tokenization platform converts real-world assets (real estate, art, securities) into digital tokens on a blockchain. With the tokenized asset market projected to reach $2 trillion by 2030 (McKinsey, 2024), Pharos Production builds compliant tokenization systems with investor dashboards, automated distributions including token airdrop mechanisms and regulatory frameworks for STOs. See our blockchain services.
Blockchain Integration & Node Infrastructure Setup
Blockchain infrastructure setup includes validator nodes, custom RPC endpoints, indexers and blockchain SDKs that connect applications to distributed networks. Pharos Production runs DevOps pipelines for blockchain infrastructure on AWS, GCP and bare metal with 99.9%+ uptime SLAs.
Crypto Payment Gateway Integration
A crypto payment gateway enables merchants to accept cryptocurrency payments in web and mobile applications. Pharos Production integrates payment processing with real-time exchange rate conversion – essential because crypto volatility can erase merchant margins within minutes – multi-currency support and cross-platform mobile SDKs.
DAO Platform Development
A DAO (Decentralized Autonomous Organization) uses token-weighted voting, multi-sig treasury management, on-chain proposal execution and delegation mechanics to govern communities without centralized control. Pharos Production builds complete DAO governance toolkits. Our platforms include intuitive front-end dashboards that make decentralized governance accessible to non-technical community members.
Web3 Analytics & Blockchain Data Dashboards
A blockchain analytics platform visualizes on-chain activity, token flows, wallet behavior and protocol metrics. Pharos Production builds real-time dashboards with custom indexing pipelines rather than relying on third-party APIs, because direct node indexing provides sub-second latency and eliminates rate limit dependencies. Our scalable data pipelines and DevOps infrastructure serve compliance teams, investors and protocol operators.

-
Web3 solutions give businesses secure, decentralized products that reduce reliance on intermediaries and lower transaction costs. Pharos Production builds Web3 platforms that enable direct peer-to-peer interactions, transparent data ownership and programmable business logic through smart contracts. According to Ethereum Foundation, smart contracts eliminate counterparty risk by replacing manual enforcement with deterministic code execution. See the Ludo reputation platform for a real-world example and our FinTech solutions for payment and DeFi integration.
-
Most projects work well on existing blockchains like Ethereum, Solana or Polygon, so building a custom chain is rarely necessary. Pharos Production helps clients choose the right blockchain based on transaction speed, gas costs and ecosystem fit – then builds the application layer on top. See our blockchain development services.
-
When implemented correctly, blockchain technology provides strong cryptographic security, immutable transaction records and transparent audit trails. Chainalysis data shows that properly audited smart contracts have significantly lower exploit rates compared to unaudited deployments. Pharos Production applies formal verification, multi-signature wallets and security audits to ensure that high-value financial applications meet institutional-grade security standards.
-
Web3 project costs depend on complexity, blockchain choice and feature scope. A basic smart contract or token launch may start from $15,000-$30,000, while a full DeFi platform or NFT marketplace can range from $80,000 to $300,000+. Pharos Production provides a detailed project estimate within 48 hours. We offer flexible pricing across all industries we serve. Request a free estimate.
-
Pharos Production develops on Ethereum, Solana, Polygon, Arbitrum, Optimism, BNB Chain, Avalanche and other EVM-compatible networks. The team also builds on Cosmos SDK and Substrate for custom chain requirements. Chain selection depends on the project’s throughput needs, gas costs and ecosystem goals. Read our Web3 stack guide for developers for a detailed comparison. See our blockchain development services for supported platforms.
-
An MVP for a DeFi protocol or Web3 dApp typically takes 2-4 months. A full-featured platform with liquidity pools, governance and cross-chain bridges may require 5-10 months. Pharos Production uses agile development with 2-week sprints, security audits at each milestone and formal verification for critical smart contract logic. Our DevOps team handles testnet and mainnet deployments. Get a timeline estimate for your project.
-
We do not build meme token generators, copy-paste DeFi forks or projects without a clear business model. Our focus is production-grade blockchain infrastructure – smart contracts, DeFi protocols, crypto wallets and enterprise tokenization.
For simple token launches without custom logic, no-code platforms like ThirdWeb are more appropriate. We take on Web3 projects starting at $10,000.
-
Smart contracts are immutable once deployed, so bugs discovered post-launch cannot be patched without proxy patterns or redeployment. Our Verified Delivery process uses 2-week sprints with formal verification, testnet deployment and security review at every iteration. Across PumpTap’s 18-month lifecycle, we ran 14 audit cycles – each cycle caught an average of 3 findings that were fixed before the next testnet deployment. This iterative approach catches vulnerabilities before mainnet, not after. According to the Standish Group (2024), agile projects are 3x more likely to succeed than waterfall approaches – a critical advantage when shipping immutable code.
