CORE SERVICE
Smart Contract Development
Secure, production-ready smart contracts built by experts for your Web3 product.
From custom tokenomics to complex DeFi logic, we translate your business requirements into robust, on-chain code.
- Custom Token Development:
ERC-20,ERC-721,ERC-1155with tailored minting, vesting, and governance modules. - DeFi & DEX Protocols: Automated Market Makers (AMMs), liquidity pools, staking, and yield farming contracts.
- Security & Audits: Development follows OpenZeppelin standards, with optional integration for third-party audits from firms like CertiK or Quantstamp.
- Full Lifecycle Support: We handle deployment, verification on Etherscan, and provide ongoing maintenance and upgrade paths.

Infrastructure Decision Matrix
Build a Custom Dev Network vs. Manual Setup
A direct comparison of the time, cost, and risk involved in building a decentralized storage protocol development network in-house versus using Chainscore's managed service.
| Development Factor | Manual In-House Build | Chainscore Managed Network |
|---|---|---|
Time to Production-Ready Network | 4-9 months | 4-8 weeks |
Initial Development Cost | $150K - $400K+ | $25K - $75K |
Protocol Expertise Required | Deep (IPFS, Filecoin, Arweave) | Minimal (We provide it) |
Security & Audit Overhead | High (Unaudited custom code) | Low (Pre-audited, hardened templates) |
Node Orchestration & Scaling | Your team manages complexity | Automated provisioning & scaling |
Multi-Protocol Support | Custom integration per protocol | Pre-built for IPFS, Filecoin, Arweave |
Ongoing Maintenance Burden | Full-time DevOps/SRE team | Optional SLA with 24/7 monitoring |
Total Cost of Ownership (Year 1) | $300K - $750K+ | $50K - $150K |

PREDICTABLE, TRANSPARENT, AND SECURE
Our Delivery Process: From Specification to Handoff
We deliver production-ready decentralized storage networks with a structured, milestone-driven approach. Our process ensures technical alignment, security-first development, and seamless integration into your existing infrastructure.
01
1. Discovery & Architecture Design
We conduct a technical deep-dive to define your storage requirements, threat model, and integration points. Deliverables include a detailed technical specification, network architecture diagram, and a phased implementation roadmap.
