ON-CHAIN LOGIC
​

• Determining what data will be tracked on-chain.

• Finalizing what must be set in stone at the outset, what constants are unknown, and what variables are required so that the smart contract can fulfill its purpose.

• Finalizing the required methods of access, such as call and response functions and front-end functionality
   

SECURITY ASSESSMENT​

​

• Known vulnerabilities

• Logic errors

• Opportunities to improve efficiency (which impacts speed and gas fees)

• Other opportunities to reduce gas requirements
  
  
   

TESTNET DEPLOYMENT​

​

• Public blockchain testnet

• First chance for client to test

​

​

FINAL TESTING AND RELEASE​

​

• Verify smart contracts

• Public announcement

​

​

​

​

​

SMART CONTRACT CODING​

​

• Designing the logic and laying out the first version of the code

• Preparing any migration files, especially when multiple chains are involved

• Initial unit testing for principle functions to ensure best practises are adhered to for design and security
   

LOCAL TESTING​

​

• First round of testing

• Find all types of issues and bugs

• Most time intensive period of process
  
  
  
  
  
   

MAINNET DEPLOYMENT​

​

• Use live tokens

• Update all domains and front end code

• Third party audit if required or asked by the client
