the problem

Smart contracts are not just code.

They are:

• financial logic
• legal commitments
• governance systems
• and economic enforcement mechanisms

Poorly designed smart contracts create:
‍

• security vulnerabilities
• regulatory exposure
• broken incentives
• and irreversible failures

Web3 infrastructure must be engineered, not improvised.

what protocol strategy really means

A Web3 system must answer:

• What logic belongs on-chain?
• What must remain off-chain?
• How do users, assets, and permissions interact?
• How are upgrades handled?
• Where are security and governance enforced?

These decisions determine whether a project scales — or collapses.

what argot provides

Argot helps teams design Web3 systems before they are built.

We provide:

• smart contract architecture planning
• protocol and chain selection
• on-chain vs off-chain system design
• upgrade and governance structures
• security and risk frameworks
• integration planning for wallets, payments, and oracles

We ensure your technical stack supports your business model — not undermines it.

our framework

Every protocol engagement includes:

 1. System Architecture
What lives on-chain and why.

 2. Contract Design
How logic, assets, and permissions are enforced.How logic, assets, and permissions are enforced.
‍
 3. Security & Upgradeability
How the system evolves without breaking.
‍
4. Integration Planning
How users, data, and external systems connect.

5. Operational Readiness
How the protocol can actually be used at scale.

who this is for

This service is designed for:

• Web3-native startups
• protocol teams and DAOs
• Web2 companies integrating blockchain
• ecosystem and infrastructure builders

It is not for teams looking to rush untested code into production.

how to begin

Every technical engagement starts with a Strategy Session.

This ensures:

• your architecture makes sense
• your risks are understood
• and your build plan is realistic

From there, we create a full protocol roadmap.
