Pactum

Protocol to product

Blockchain / Crypto

Smart contracts, indexing, wallets, and the full-stack product around a protocol. I have been in this space long enough to care more about correctness and UX than slogans.

Discuss this work

The usual failure

Crypto products fail in the seams: a contract that cannot be operated, an indexer that lies, a wallet flow users abandon, or a backend that treats the chain as an afterthought.

How I take it

I treat the chain as one constrained datastore with public consequences. Contracts, indexers, APIs, and UI get designed as one system — with threat models, upgrade paths, and the unglamorous operational work included.

What you leave with

Contracts and integrations that match how the product is actually used

Indexing and read paths that stay honest under load

Wallet and transaction UX that does not leak complexity

Clear security and upgrade boundaries

Typical engagements

Protocol / dapp architecture

Smart contract integration

Indexing and backend design

Wallet, key, and transaction flows

If the work is real, I will take it.

Pactum is a one-person practice. You work with Matthew Swezey — not a bench that gets swapped after the pitch.
