Overview
Fintechs, wallets and corporate treasuries increasingly integrate DeFi — swaps, lending, yield, staking — into their offerings. We build integration layers with protocol risk assessment, allowlisted protocols, transaction simulation, position tracking, accounting data and controls such as limits and approvals, so DeFi can be used deliberately rather than ad hoc.
Common use cases
- Wallet DeFi featuresSwaps and yield inside a wallet.
- Fintech yield productDeFi yield via controlled integrations.
- Treasury DeFiCorporate or DAO treasury strategies.
- Exchange DeFi accessOffering DeFi products to exchange users.
Quick answers
DeFi Integration at a glance
The essentials in brief. Every project is scoped individually — ask us for specifics.
- What is DeFi integration?
- Integrate DeFi into fintech apps, treasuries and platforms — lending, swaps, yield and staking with controls.
- Who is it for?
- Typically Web3 startups, fintechs adding digital assets, and institutions exploring tokenization, stablecoins or on-chain settlement.
- What does Shivacha provide?
- Protocol due diligence
- Allowlists
- Simulation
- Position tracking
- Accounting data
- Controls
- Which technologies are used?
- Solidity, Foundry, Chainlink, Blockchain Oracles, ERC-4626, Ethereum — chosen to fit your stack and constraints.
- How does the process work?
- Mechanism design → Risk modelling → Contract engineering → Off-chain systems → Launch.
- What affects the cost?
- Contract complexity and number of chains
- Custody and wallet model
- Independent audit scope
- Indexing, analytics and back-office tooling
- Compliance integrations (KYC, AML, Travel Rule)
- Upgradeability and governance requirements
- How long does it take?
- A focused contract system or dApp MVP typically takes 8–14 weeks plus independent audit time; institutional platforms usually take 4–9 months.

Architecture
Engineered right from day one
The layers we typically design for DeFi engineering, adapted to your stack and partners.
- Oracle robustnessManipulation-resistant price feeds with fallbacks and sanity checks.
- Economic attacksFlash-loan, sandwich and governance attack scenarios modelled.
- Composability riskDependencies on external protocols assessed and limited.
- Guarded launchDeposit caps and pause mechanisms during early operation.
Delivery
How an engagement runs
- 1
Mechanism design
Pricing, collateral, liquidation and incentive mechanics specified and simulated.
- 2
Risk modelling
Parameter selection with stress tests against historical and extreme scenarios.
- 3
Contract engineering
Audit-ready implementation with invariant and fork testing.
- 4
Off-chain systems
Keepers, liquidation bots, indexers and dashboards.
- 5
Launch
Guarded launch with caps, monitoring and staged parameter changes.
Security
Security built into delivery
Controls we apply by default on this kind of work — not a separate phase at the end.
Specification first
Roles, invariants and threat model documented before code.
Adversarial testing
Fuzz, invariant and fork tests plus static analysis on every change.
Key management
Admin keys in multisig or MPC with timelocks on sensitive actions.
Independent audit
Code prepared for — and we recommend — an external audit before mainnet value.

Frequently asked questions
Is integrating DeFi safe for a fintech?
It can be done responsibly with protocol due diligence, limits and monitoring; the product's regulatory treatment must be assessed separately.
Can DeFi positions be exited quickly?
It depends on liquidity and protocol mechanics; exit paths are assessed as part of due diligence.
Can you fork an existing protocol?
We can build on established open-source designs where licences allow, but forks inherit assumptions that may not fit your market. We review and adapt the mechanics rather than copying blindly.
Do you design token incentives for DeFi?
Yes, with an emphasis on sustainable, simulated incentive programs rather than short-term liquidity mining that leaves when rewards end.
