Smart-Contract Studio
We engineer theon-chain logicinstitutions settle on.
A smart-contract engineering studio building DAML, Solidity and Rust systems for marketplaces, trading venues and settlement layers.
Design-led · Audit-ready · Multi-chain
01 The Studio
Settlement finality is not a feature. It's the contract.
SeekSingularity is a specialist smart-contract studio. We architect, write, test and ship the on-chain logic institutions depend on — then stay for the audit and the upgrade path.
Engineering Principles
- 01
Specify before you sign
Every engagement opens with a threat model and a state machine, not a repository.
- 02
Deterministic by construction
DAML privacy and authorization rules replace trust assumptions with enforced ones.
- 03
Test like an adversary
Property-based tests, fuzzing and invariant suites run before an auditor ever sees the code.
- 04
Upgrade paths, not rewrites
Storage layouts, proxies and migration scripts are designed on day one.
02DAML & Canton Network
Privacy is a property of the ledger, not a promise.
Canton gives each participant its own sub-transaction view with atomic composability across applications. We model that in DAML — templates, choices, observers and authorization rules that encode who may see and do what.
- DAML templates
- Sub-transaction privacy
- Atomic composability
- Participant nodes
- Domain interoperability
03 Selected Work
Prediction market, end to end.
A full-lifecycle prediction venue: order book, resolution, settlement and an AI signal layer — built as one deterministic state machine rather than four bolted-together services.
Open → Trading → Resolve → Settle
Markets open with defined resolution criteria, trade on an on-chain CLOB, resolve against attested outcomes, then settle atomically in USDC.x.
Open
Market created with resolution criteria and collateral parameters fixed on-chain.
Trading
On-chain CLOB with a darkpool path for size that shouldn't move the book.
Resolve
Attested outcome feeds close the market; disputes follow a bounded challenge window.
Settle
Atomic USDC.x payout; an NFT liquidation engine clears collateralised positions.
Settlement layer
Chosen where finality and cost fit the venue — Canton for privacy, EVM for reach.
- Canton
- EVM L2
Matching & custody
CLOB, darkpool routing and margin logic as auditable, invariant-tested contracts.
- CLOB
- Darkpool
USDC.x atomicity
Payout and collateral release execute in one transaction — no partial states.
- USDC.x
- NFT liquidation
Grok / xAI signals
Market framing and resolution research surfaced off-chain; never a trust dependency.
- Grok / xAI
- Off-chain oracle
04 Chains We Ship On
One team. Three languages. Nine networks.
We pick the chain for the mechanism, not the other way round. Solidity across EVM L1s and L2s, Rust on Solana, Cosmos and Stellar, DAML where privacy is non-negotiable.
EVM · Solidity
NFT marketplaces
Order-matching, escrow and lazy minting with gas-profiled settlement paths.
- ERC-721 / 1155
- Seaport-style orders
On-chain royalty systems
Enforced splits and payout registries that survive secondary-market routing.
- ERC-2981
- Split registry
Token-gated membership
Credential contracts with expiry, delegation and revocation built in.
- ERC-4907
- Soulbound
Non-EVM · Rust & native
Solana
Anchor programs for high-throughput order flow.
Stellar
Soroban contracts for payment and FX rails.
Sonic
Low-latency EVM-adjacent trading logic.
Cosmos
CosmWasm modules and appchain design.
Ordinals
Bitcoin-native inscription tooling.
Polkadot
Substrate pallets and parachain logic.
05 Proof

06 Why SeekSingularity
Six reasons the code holds.
Specialist depth, operator lineage and a delivery process built for teams that answer to risk committees.
Three-language depth
DAML, Solidity and Rust in-house — no subcontracting the hard parts.
Canton specialists
Deep DAML fluency — templates, choices, observers and authorization rules.
Audit-ready by default
Invariant suites, coverage and documentation land with the code, not after it.
Operations mindset
We build like operators, not vendors — monitoring, upgrade paths and incident response come standard.
Systems, not scripts
We design the mechanism — matching, custody, settlement — then implement it.
We stay past launch
Monitoring, upgrade paths and incident support are part of the engagement.
07 Frequently asked
Questions buyers actually ask.
What is DAML, and why does Canton need it?
DAML is a smart-contract language built around rights and obligations. Templates define state, choices define permitted actions, and signatories and observers define who can authorize and who can see. On Canton that maps directly to sub-transaction privacy — each participant stores only the data it is party to, while transactions still compose atomically across applications.
What makes an application a Canton Featured App?
Four things: real economic activity, production readiness, ecosystem contribution, and sustained usage. Featured status routes a share of $CC minting to the application. We build to those criteria from the architecture stage and support the submission.
How does an engagement start?
With a short discovery and scoping phase — we work through your requirements, constraints, and risk surface, then hand over a threat model, a detailed system and state-machine specification, and a delivery plan with fixed milestones and clear acceptance criteria. Build phases follow directly from that document, and it's yours to keep either way.
What is your audit posture?
We write the invariant and property-based test suites ourselves and hand auditors a documented, frozen scope. We coordinate with your chosen firm, remediate findings, and re-test. We do not self-certify — external audit is assumed for anything holding value.
Can you work alongside our in-house engineers?
Yes. We embed with internal teams regularly — owning the contract layer while your engineers own the application and infrastructure — and we hand over with documentation and pairing so the code stays maintainable without us.
