Phased Migration & Delivery Timeline
Our proven 4-phase methodology ensures a secure, efficient DEX migration with clear deliverables and predictable timelines.
| Phase & Deliverables | Timeline | Key Activities | Client Involvement |
|---|---|---|---|
Phase 1: Discovery & Architecture | 1-2 weeks | Technical audit, gap analysis, migration strategy, smart contract design | Requirements workshop, approval of technical spec |
Phase 2: Development & Testing | 3-5 weeks | Smart contract migration, UI/API integration, comprehensive unit/integration testing, security audit prep | Weekly syncs, test environment access, feedback on staging build |
Phase 3: Staging & Security | 1-2 weeks | Deploy to testnet/staging, final security audit, load testing, user acceptance testing (UAT) | UAT execution, bug reporting, final security sign-off |
Phase 4: Production Migration | < 1 week | Mainnet deployment, liquidity migration automation, monitoring setup, DNS/domain cutover | Final go/no-go decision, coordinate liquidity provider communication |
Post-Launch Support (Optional) | Ongoing | 24/7 monitoring, performance optimization, incident response, minor upgrades | Available via SLA (4h, 24h, or dedicated support) |
Total Project Timeline | 6-10 weeks | End-to-end migration from legacy system to upgraded, audited DEX on mainnet | Defined weekly checkpoints and approval gates |

PROVEN PROCESS
Our Migration Methodology
A structured, low-risk approach to DEX migration that prioritizes security, continuity, and performance. We deliver predictable outcomes, not just code.
01
Architecture & Strategy Review
We conduct a comprehensive audit of your existing DEX architecture to identify technical debt, security vulnerabilities, and performance bottlenecks. This forms the blueprint for a scalable, future-proof migration strategy.

Smart Contract Migration & Audit
Our team migrates core logic (AMM, staking, governance) to optimized, audited code. Every contract undergoes internal review followed by a formal security audit from a leading third-party firm before deployment.

Strategic Decision Analysis
Build vs. Outsource DEX Migration
A detailed comparison of the risks, costs, and time commitments between developing a DEX migration solution internally versus partnering with Chainscore Labs for a managed service.
| Key Factor | Build In-House | Outsource to Chainscore |
|---|---|---|
Time to Market | 4-9 months | 3-6 weeks |
Initial Development Cost | $120K - $300K+ | $25K - $80K |
Security Audit Requirement | Separate cost & time ($30K-$100K) | Included in service |
Team Expertise Required | Senior Solidity, Security, DevOps | Our team provides all expertise |
Ongoing Maintenance & Updates | Ongoing team overhead | Optional SLA with 24/7 monitoring |
Risk of Critical Bugs or Exploits | High (untested code) | Negligible (audited, battle-tested patterns) |
Access to Latest DEX Features (e.g., CLMM) | Delayed implementation | Immediate integration |
Total Year 1 Cost (Dev + Audit + Ops) | $200K - $500K+ | $50K - $150K |
Guaranteed Uptime SLA | Your responsibility | 99.9% SLA available |

Frequently Asked Questions
Get clear answers on our process, timeline, and security for upgrading or migrating your decentralized exchange.
Our standard timeline is 4-8 weeks from kickoff to mainnet deployment. This includes 1-2 weeks for architecture review, 2-4 weeks for development and internal testing, and 1-2 weeks for client testing and final audit. Complex migrations (e.g., cross-chain liquidity bridges) may extend this to 10-12 weeks. We provide a detailed project plan with weekly milestones.
