DeFi Regulatory Stress Testing

Proactive simulation of regulatory scenarios to quantify compliance risk and capital requirements for institutional DeFi protocols, vaults, and structured products.
Chainscore © 2026
overview
CORE SERVICE

Smart Contract Development

Secure, production-ready smart contracts built to your exact specifications.

We architect and deploy custom smart contracts that form the immutable backbone of your application. Our development process is built on security-first principles, utilizing battle-tested libraries like OpenZeppelin and rigorous internal audits before any code reaches the mainnet.

  • Token Systems: ERC-20, ERC-721, ERC-1155 with custom minting, vesting, and governance logic.
  • DeFi Protocols: Automated market makers (AMMs), lending/borrowing pools, and staking contracts with optimized gas efficiency.
  • Enterprise Logic: Multi-signature wallets, access control systems, and custom business logic for real-world asset (RWA) tokenization.

We deliver fully documented, auditable code with a 99.9% uptime SLA for deployed contracts, ensuring your core logic is both robust and reliable.

STRESS TEST YOUR PROTOCOL

Comprehensive Regulatory Risk Simulation

Proactively identify and quantify compliance gaps before regulators do. Our simulation engine models enforcement actions across multiple jurisdictions to harden your protocol's legal resilience.

01

Multi-Jurisdiction Scenario Modeling

Simulate enforcement actions from the SEC, CFTC, MAS, and EU's MiCA framework. We model specific regulatory triggers like the Howey Test, Travel Rule compliance, and market manipulation rules to quantify your exposure.

Standard Regulatory Stress Test Scenarios

Our structured testing framework simulates real-world regulatory actions and market shocks to validate your protocol's resilience and compliance posture.

Test ScenarioDescriptionKey Metrics TestedIncluded In

AML/CFT Transaction Freeze

Simulates a regulatory order to freeze specific user assets or halt transactions from sanctioned addresses.

Compliance logic execution, user notification systems, governance override latency

Professional, Enterprise

Capital Adequacy Shock (Depeg)

Models a severe stablecoin depeg event (e.g., 20%+ deviation) to test liquidity and solvency under stress.

LTV ratios, liquidation efficiency, protocol equity, reserve health

Starter, Professional, Enterprise

Concentration Limit Breach

Tests protocol behavior when a single user or entity exceeds predefined exposure limits set by governance.

Limit enforcement triggers, automated position reduction, alerting systems

Enterprise

Withdrawal Run / Bank Run Simulation

Simulates a coordinated mass withdrawal event to stress-test liquidity pools and redemption mechanisms.

Withdrawal queue integrity, time-to-withdraw, pool depletion rates, fee adaptation

Professional, Enterprise

Oracle Failure & Market Manipulation

Injects malicious price feed data or simulates oracle downtime to test circuit breakers and fallback mechanisms.

Price deviation thresholds, transaction reversion rates, secondary oracle activation time

Starter, Professional, Enterprise

Jurisdictional Shutdown (Geo-Blocking)

Tests the protocol's ability to restrict access from a newly sanctioned country or region in <24 hours.

IP/address filtering accuracy, frontend blocking, API response handling

Enterprise

Smart Contract Upgrade Under Duress

Simulates the emergency governance process to deploy a critical security patch during an active exploit.

Governance proposal speed, voter participation under stress, upgrade execution time, rollback capability

Enterprise

Reporting & Disclosure Stress Test

Validates the automated generation and submission of regulatory reports (e.g., transaction volumes, large transfers) during high activity.

Report accuracy, data completeness, submission latency, format compliance

Professional, Enterprise

RIGOROUS & REPRODUCIBLE

Our Methodology: Data-Driven, Protocol-Agnostic Analysis

We apply a systematic, multi-layered approach to DeFi regulatory stress testing, delivering actionable intelligence, not just raw data. Our framework is trusted by protocols managing over $10B in TVL.

01

Comprehensive On-Chain Data Ingestion

We ingest and normalize real-time data from 50+ EVM and non-EVM chains, including transaction flows, liquidity pools, governance actions, and oracle feeds. This forms the foundation for accurate, holistic risk assessment.

Custom Smart Contract Development

Secure, gas-optimized smart contracts tailored to your specific business logic and tokenomics.

We architect and deploy production-grade smart contracts that form the core of your Web3 application. Our development process is built on security-first principles and audit-ready code from day one.

  • Token Standards: Custom ERC-20, ERC-721, ERC-1155, and ERC-4626 vaults.
  • DeFi Primitives: Automated Market Makers (AMMs), staking pools, vesting schedules, and governance modules.
