overview

CORE INFRASTRUCTURE

Custom Smart Contract Development

Secure, audited smart contracts built to your exact specifications, from tokens to complex DeFi logic.

We architect and deploy production-ready smart contracts that power your Web3 application. Our process delivers secure, gas-optimized code on time, every time.

Token Systems: Custom ERC-20, ERC-721, and ERC-1155 contracts with minting, vesting, and governance modules.
DeFi Primitives: Automated Market Makers (AMMs), staking pools, lending protocols, and yield aggregators.
Enterprise Logic: Multi-signature wallets, asset management systems, and custom business logic for real-world assets (RWA).

We don't just write code; we deliver audited, battle-tested infrastructure that protects your assets and your users' trust.

Every contract undergoes rigorous security review using industry-standard tools like Slither and MythX, followed by a formal audit report. We implement OpenZeppelin standards and provide comprehensive documentation for your team.

PROVEN FRAMEWORK

Our Migration Methodology

A structured, four-phase approach designed to ensure a secure, efficient, and low-risk transition from your legacy voting system to a modern, on-chain solution.

Discovery & Architecture Review

We conduct a comprehensive audit of your existing voting logic, governance rules, and technical debt. This phase defines the target architecture, identifies migration risks, and establishes the final scope of work.

Logic Coverage

Smart Contract Development

Our team builds the new on-chain voting contracts using battle-tested patterns (OpenZeppelin Governor). We implement custom logic for delegation, quorum, and vote weighting with a focus on gas efficiency and security.

Security & Testing

Every contract undergoes rigorous unit, integration, and scenario testing. We facilitate third-party audits with firms like CertiK or Quantstamp and implement a formal verification process for critical functions.

In-House vs. Chainscore-Guided Migration

A detailed comparison of the risks, costs, and time commitments associated with migrating your voting system internally versus with our expert-led program.

Migration Factor	In-House Team	Chainscore-Guided Program
Time to Production	4-9 months	6-10 weeks
Upfront Security Risk	High (unaudited custom code)	Low (pre-audited patterns & review)
Core Migration Cost	$120K-$300K+ (dev resources)	$25K-$75K (fixed-fee project)
Smart Contract Audit	Optional extra ($15K-$50K)	Included (comprehensive review)
Post-Migration Support	Your team's responsibility	90-day warranty & optional SLA
Protocol-Specific Expertise	Requires hiring/ramp-up	Built-in (Compound, Aave, Snapshot)
Legacy Data Integrity	Your team verifies	Guaranteed migration with validation suite
Team Bandwidth Impact	Full-time for 2-3 engineers	Minimal (we lead, you review)
Total Year 1 Cost (Est.)	$250K-$600K+	$40K-$100K

Technical & Process Questions

DAO Migration FAQs

Common questions from CTOs and DAO leads about migrating governance to a modern, secure voting system.

A standard migration from an existing DAO framework (like Aragon v1 or a custom solution) to a new system (e.g., OpenZeppelin Governor, Tally) takes 3-6 weeks. This includes 1 week for audit & planning, 2-4 weeks for development & testing, and 1 week for deployment and final verification. Complex multi-chain deployments or custom veto/cancel logic can extend this timeline, which we scope during the initial technical assessment.
