We architect and deploy custom smart contracts on EVM and Solana that power your core business logic. Our development process is built for security and speed, delivering a production-ready MVP in 2-4 weeks.
Cross-Chain Protocol Stress Testing
Smart Contract Development
Secure, audited smart contracts built for production by Web3-native engineers.
We don't just write code; we engineer resilient systems that handle real value.
- Security-First Development: Code written with
OpenZeppelinstandards, formal verification, and multi-stage internal audits before deployment. - Full-Stack Integration: Contracts designed to work seamlessly with your frontend,
oracles, and backend services. - Gas Optimization: Every line is optimized for efficiency, reducing user transaction costs by up to 40%.
- Ongoing Support: Post-deployment monitoring, upgrade management, and incident response.
Comprehensive Adversarial Simulation Suite
Identify and mitigate critical vulnerabilities before they reach production. Our battle-tested simulations replicate sophisticated multi-vector attacks to harden your cross-chain protocol's economic and operational security.
Economic Exploit Modeling
Simulate flash loan attacks, oracle manipulation, and liquidity drain scenarios to validate your protocol's financial resilience and slippage controls.
Consensus & Validator Attack Simulation
Stress-test bridge validator sets and relayers under conditions of network partitioning, latency spikes, and Byzantine behavior to ensure liveness.
Cross-Chain Message Forgery
Attempt to inject malicious state transitions and spoof messages between chains to verify the integrity of your protocol's messaging layer (Wormhole, LayerZero, IBC).
Governance & Upgrade Attack Paths
Map exploit paths through governance proposals and upgrade mechanisms to prevent hostile takeovers and ensure secure, transparent protocol evolution.
Front-Running & MEV Exploitation
Deploy bots to exploit transaction ordering, sandwich attacks, and arbitrage opportunities specific to your cross-chain architecture's mempool design.
Deploy with Confidence, Not Hope
Our stress testing methodology delivers quantifiable security and performance benchmarks before your protocol goes live, eliminating deployment guesswork.
Protocol-Specific Attack Simulation
We simulate real-world adversarial conditions—flash loan attacks, oracle manipulation, governance exploits—tailored to your protocol's unique logic and economic model.
Multi-Chain Load & Performance Testing
Validate transaction throughput, gas efficiency, and latency under peak load across Ethereum, Polygon, Arbitrum, and other target chains to ensure mainnet readiness.
Economic Security & Incentive Analysis
Stress test tokenomics, liquidity mining programs, and staking mechanisms under volatile market conditions to identify unsustainable incentives and potential de-pegs.
Bridge & Cross-Chain Interoperability Testing
Rigorously test message passing, asset locking/minting, and failure states for cross-chain contracts to prevent fund loss and ensure atomic transaction integrity.
Comprehensive Risk Report & Remediation
Receive a prioritized, actionable report with severity scores, proof-of-concept exploits, and step-by-step remediation guidance validated by our security engineers.
Continuous Monitoring & Post-Deployment Support
Ongoing monitoring of live protocol metrics and automated alerting for anomalous behavior, with expert support for emergency incident response.
Standard Testing Scope & Deliverables
Our tiered stress testing packages are designed to validate your cross-chain protocol's performance, security, and reliability under extreme conditions, from initial launch to enterprise-grade production.

Internal Testing vs. Chainscore Adversarial Testing
Internal testing validates expected behavior, but adversarial testing simulates real-world attacks to uncover critical vulnerabilities before mainnet launch.
| Testing Factor | Internal Testing | Chainscore Adversarial Testing |
|---|---|---|
Primary Objective | Validate functionality and basic logic | Break the protocol by simulating malicious actors |
Team Mindset | Confirmation bias (proving it works) | Adversarial bias (proving it can be broken) |
Attack Vectors Covered | Standard user flows, basic edge cases | Front-running, MEV, griefing, bridge exploits, oracle manipulation |
Test Environment | Controlled, predictable testnets (e.g., Sepolia) | Forked mainnet state with simulated malicious contracts & bots |
Security Expertise | Generalist developers | Specialized smart contract auditors & white-hat hackers |
Time to Critical Bug Discovery | Weeks or months (if at all) | Typically within the first 2 weeks of engagement |
Cost of Testing | Internal engineering hours | Fixed project fee starting at $25K |
Final Deliverable | Pass/Fail test report | Comprehensive vulnerability report with PoC exploits & remediation guidance |
Risk Mitigation | Low - misses complex, chain-specific attacks | High - exposes systemic risks before they cause a multi-million dollar exploit |
Stress Testing Questions, Answered
Key questions CTOs and protocol architects ask when evaluating cross-chain stress testing services.
We employ a three-phase methodology: 1) Protocol Analysis – We map your smart contract logic, dependencies, and failure modes across all supported chains. 2) Scenario Modeling – We simulate real-world adversarial conditions like network congestion (Ethereum at 3000+ gwei), validator downtime, and oracle failures. 3) Load & Chaos Testing – We execute high-volume, multi-chain transaction floods to identify bottlenecks in relayers, bridges, and message queues. This process is based on our experience securing over $500M+ in cross-chain TVL.
