Overview

The Data Foundation provides open infrastructure for registering, licensing, and tracking intellectual property (IP) on-chain.

57Blocks led SDK and QA development — building the developer toolchain and validation systems that power The Data Foundation’s IP ecosystem.

  SDKs

Built TypeScript and Python SDKs (6,000+ monthly downloads, 100+ GitHub stars). Implemented an EIP-712 signature system, IPFS integration, and multicall batching for 60–70% gas reduction.

  QA automation

Built L1 chain, smart contract, and API testing frameworks with Mocha, Pytest, and Hardhat. Covered validator, staking, and slashing flows with regression and load testing.

  Performance tools

Developed an S3-compatible storage benchmark and API load-testing utilities using Locust.
