Secure, production-ready smart contracts for DeFi, NFTs, and enterprise applications.
We architect and deploy audit-ready smart contracts that form the foundation of your Web3 product. Our development process ensures security, gas efficiency, and upgradability from day one.
Build on a secure foundation with contracts designed for real-world use and future growth.
Solidity/Vyper contracts to front-end integration with ethers.js/web3.js.Our engineering team delivers the foundational infrastructure to securely stream Bitcoin value across the Cosmos ecosystem. We focus on battle-tested, production-ready solutions.
We architect and deploy production-ready IBC infrastructure, turning Bitcoin's liquidity into a programmable asset for your application. Here's what you can expect.
Deploy a dedicated, high-availability relayer with a custom light client for Bitcoin. We implement formal verification and continuous monitoring to ensure secure, trust-minimized cross-chain communication.
A production-grade bridge for minting and burning IBC-wrapped Bitcoin (e.g., ibc/BTC) on your Cosmos chain. Includes governance controls, rate limiting, and multi-signature security for treasury management.
Receive a custom SDK and REST/WebSocket APIs for seamless integration. Enables your frontend to initiate transfers, query balances, and monitor transaction status without deep IBC expertise.
We handle the full deployment lifecycle on your chosen infrastructure (AWS, GCP, bare metal). Includes Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) setup with logging, alerting, and automated failover procedures.
Tailored integration for DeFi, Gaming, or Institutional use cases. We optimize for your chain's consensus, staking mechanics, and fee models to ensure economic security and user experience.
Stay current with IBC and Bitcoin protocol upgrades. We provide maintenance packages for soft forks, light client updates, and integration with new Bitcoin L2s like Stacks or Lightning.
A structured, milestone-driven approach to launching your Bitcoin value streaming solution on Cosmos IBC. Each phase delivers incremental, production-ready value.
| Phase & Deliverables | Timeline | Key Outcomes | Technical Scope |
|---|---|---|---|
Phase 1: IBC Bridge Core & MVP | 3-4 weeks | Functional Bitcoin peg zone with IBC client; basic asset transfer demo. | IBC light client for Bitcoin, custom peg zone module (Cosmos SDK), basic governance for validators. |
Phase 2: Streaming Protocol & SDK | 4-6 weeks | Live value streaming between chains; developer SDK for integration. | Stream locking/unlocking contracts, rate limiting, fee abstraction layer, TypeScript/Go SDKs. |
Phase 3: Security & Production Hardening | 2-3 weeks | Audited, monitored system ready for mainnet deployment. | Comprehensive audit (2 firms), slashing conditions, monitoring dashboard, disaster recovery plan. |
Phase 4: Scalability & Multi-Chain | 3-5 weeks | Support for additional Cosmos chains and advanced streaming features. | IBC packet middleware, cross-chain query support, performance optimization for high throughput. |
Ongoing: Managed Infrastructure | Post-launch | Guaranteed 99.9% uptime with proactive maintenance and upgrades. | 24/7 monitoring & alerting, validator set management, protocol upgrade execution, SLA-backed support. |
Our structured, four-phase approach de-risks your Bitcoin value streaming project, ensuring a secure, scalable, and production-ready IBC integration delivered on time.
We begin with a comprehensive technical design, defining the custom IBC application logic, security model, and integration points with your existing Bitcoin infrastructure. This phase establishes clear requirements and deliverables.
Our engineers build the custom IBC light client, packet encoding/decoding, and proof verification logic in Go (Cosmos SDK) and Rust (for performance-critical components). All code follows IBC protocol specifications.
We conduct rigorous unit, integration, and adversarial testing, including fuzzing and formal verification of state machine logic. The final module is deployed to a dedicated testnet for end-to-end validation.
We manage the governance proposal, mainnet deployment, and provide 24/7 monitoring and incident response for the first 90 days. Includes comprehensive documentation and handover.
A detailed comparison of Bitcoin bridging solutions, highlighting why Cosmos IBC with Chainscore's implementation offers superior security, speed, and cost-efficiency for streaming Bitcoin value across chains.
| Feature / Metric | Cosmos IBC (Chainscore) | Wrapped BTC (WBTC) | Multichain Bridge | Build In-House |
|---|---|---|---|---|
Underlying Security Model | IBC Light Client + Interchain Security | Centralized Custodian | Multi-Sig Federation | Custom (High Risk) |
Time to Finality | 6-10 seconds | 1-2 hours | 10-30 minutes | Varies (Weeks to Design) |
Capital Efficiency | High (Native, No Lock-up) | Low (Custodial Reserve) | Medium (Locked in Bridge) | Unknown |
Protocol Sovereignty | Full (Your Validator Set) | None (Third-Party Controlled) | Partial (Shared Governance) | Full (High Overhead) |
Cross-Chain Composability | Native IBC to 50+ Chains | EVM-Only via Wrapping | Limited to Supported Chains | Custom Per Integration |
Development & Integration Time | 4-8 weeks (with Chainscore) | 1-2 weeks | 2-4 weeks | 6-12+ months |
Ongoing Operational Cost | Low (Validator Staking) | High (Custody & Mint/Burn Fees) | Medium (Bridge Operator Fees) | Very High (DevOps, Security, Updates) |
Audit & Security Posture | Formally Verified IBC + Custom Audit | Relies on Custodian's Audit | Bridge-Specific Audit | Your Responsibility |
Total Cost of Ownership (Year 1) | $50K - $150K (Service) | $100K+ in Fees & Slippage | $75K - $200K (Fees + Risk) | $200K - $500K+ (Team & Infrastructure) |
Get clear answers on how we build secure, scalable Bitcoin value streaming solutions using Cosmos IBC.
A standard implementation, from initial design to mainnet deployment, takes 4-8 weeks. This includes IBC relayer setup, custom ICS-20 token transfer module development, and comprehensive testing. Complex integrations with existing DeFi protocols or custom logic can extend this timeline, which we scope and quote for individually.
