Platform implementation

Solana

We write and review Solana programs in Rust with Anchor, issue tokens with Token Extensions, and run RPC capacity that keeps pace with the network.

Solana programs work differently from EVM contracts: state lives in accounts that each transaction must list, and most security bugs come from an account that was never checked. Token Extensions matter for regulated uses in the Gulf, because freeze, transfer hook and permanent delegate controls map onto what a payment token issuer may need under the CBUAE's Payment Token Services Regulation; in Saudi Arabia, SAMA sets the rules for payments.

We use Anchor for account validation and interface generation, derive program addresses for state, and test with a local validator and fuzzing before deployment. The program's upgrade authority sits with a multisig, and we size dedicated RPC nodes or provider plans to transaction volume, with priority fees tuned so transactions land during congestion.

How we implement Solana

Implementation, customisation, deployment and ongoing support, with governance your steering committee can follow.

  • Blueprint and governance

    Security, risk and the product owner approve the account layout, the authorities on every mint and program, and the upgrade policy before code is written.

  • Token Extensions set-up

    Mints with the extensions your compliance model needs, such as accounts frozen by default, transfer hooks or confidential transfers.

  • Account validation review

    A review of every instruction for missing owner, signer and seed checks, the most common source of Solana exploits.

  • Reliable transaction delivery

    Retry logic, blockhash handling and priority fees, so customer transactions confirm when the network is busy.

  • Hypercare and managed support

    We track Solana validator client releases, watch RPC latency and slot lag, follow priority fee levels and review who holds the upgrade authority keys.

Signs Solana suits the product

Payments, trading and consumer products that need high throughput and low fees on one chain are where Solana stands out, provided the team is willing to work in Rust.

  • Engineers comfortable with Rust, or time to learn it
  • Transaction volume that would be costly on Ethereum mainnet
  • A compliance model for the token's freeze and transfer controls
  • An RPC budget sized for peak traffic
