We architect and deploy custom smart contracts for DeFi, NFTs, and enterprise protocols. Our team specializes in Solidity 0.8+, Vyper, and Rust, implementing OpenZeppelin standards and gas-optimized patterns from day one.
Oracle Security for Derivative Price Feeds
Smart Contract Development
Secure, production-ready smart contracts built by Web3-native engineers.
- Security-First Process: Every contract undergoes multi-stage audits (automated, manual, formal verification) before deployment.
- Full Lifecycle Support: From initial design and
Hardhat/Foundrytesting to mainnet deployment and upgrade management via transparent proxies. - Measurable Outcomes: Deliver audit-ready code in 2-4 weeks, with gas costs optimized by up to 40% versus industry averages.
We don't just write code; we deliver the secure, scalable foundation your protocol needs to launch with confidence.
Architecture for Institutional-Grade Reliability
Our derivative price feed infrastructure is built from the ground up for the demands of high-frequency trading and institutional risk management, delivering the uptime, security, and performance your protocol requires.
Multi-Layer Consensus & Redundancy
We aggregate data from 50+ primary sources (CEXs, DEXs, institutional feeds) and run them through a proprietary multi-signer consensus layer. This eliminates single points of failure and ensures data integrity, even during exchange outages.
Sub-Second Price Finality with Heartbeat
Receive verifiable on-chain price updates in under 800ms, with configurable heartbeat intervals to guarantee liveness. Our architecture is optimized for Layer 2s and high-throughput chains to prevent stale data in volatile markets.
Formally Verified Security Core
The core aggregation and signing logic is built with formal verification methodologies, providing mathematical proof of correctness for critical operations. This is complemented by regular audits from firms like Spearbit and Code4rena.
Fault-Tolerant Node Architecture
Our globally distributed, auto-scaling node network is designed for self-healing. If a primary data path or node fails, traffic is instantly rerouted with no degradation in service quality or security guarantees.
Regulatory & Compliance Readiness
Our architecture supports data provenance trails, tamper-evident logging, and integration with compliance reporting tools. Designed to meet the operational standards expected by institutional partners and regulated entities.
Business Outcomes: Reduced Risk, Enhanced Trust
Our oracle security engineering directly translates into measurable business advantages for your derivative platform, protecting your capital and your reputation.
Eliminate Price Manipulation Risk
Multi-source aggregation, outlier detection, and cryptoeconomic slashing mechanisms prevent flash loan attacks and stale data exploits that can drain liquidity pools.
Guaranteed Data Freshness & Uptime
High-frequency updates with sub-second latency and a 99.9% uptime SLA ensure your perpetual swaps and options markets never operate on stale prices.
Audit-Ready Security Posture
Receive a comprehensive security package including formal verification reports, penetration test findings, and documentation that satisfies the strictest VC and institutional due diligence.
Reduce Operational & Integration Overhead
We handle the full oracle stack—node operation, data sourcing, and crisis management—freeing your team to focus on core trading logic and UX.
Build vs. Buy: Custom Oracle vs. Generic Feeds
A detailed comparison of the resource commitment, risk, and total cost of ownership between developing a custom oracle solution in-house versus implementing Chainscore's secure, managed derivative price feeds.
| Key Factor | Build In-House | Generic Public Feeds | Chainscore Custom Feeds |

Our Delivery Process: From Risk Assessment to Go-Live
A proven, phased approach to secure oracle integration. We deliver production-ready, resilient price feeds with clear deliverables at each stage, ensuring your derivative protocol launches with institutional-grade data integrity.
Phase 1: Security & Risk Assessment
We conduct a deep-dive audit of your derivative smart contracts and economic model to identify oracle-specific vulnerabilities like price manipulation, latency attacks, and liquidation logic flaws. This upfront analysis prevents costly exploits post-launch.
Phase 2: Oracle Architecture Design
We design a custom oracle stack tailored to your asset class (perps, options, synthetics). This includes source selection (CEXs, DEXs), aggregation logic, heartbeat intervals, and failover mechanisms to ensure data freshness and censorship resistance.
Phase 3: Smart Contract Development & Audit
Our engineers build and harden the custom oracle contracts (e.g., Chainlink-compatible adapters, Pyth price service integrators) using formal verification patterns. All code undergoes internal review followed by a partner security audit.
Phase 4: Staging & Load Testing
We deploy the oracle system in a staging environment mirroring mainnet conditions. We simulate extreme market volatility, network congestion, and source failure to validate resilience, accuracy, and gas efficiency under stress.
Phase 5: Mainnet Deployment & Monitoring
We manage the secure, multi-sig deployment of oracle contracts to mainnet and establish 24/7 monitoring dashboards. We track key metrics: price deviation, update latency, source health, and gas costs, with alerts for anomalies.
Phase 6: Ongoing Support & Upgrades
Post-launch, we provide ongoing maintenance, performance reports, and protocol upgrade support. As new assets or data sources are needed, we seamlessly integrate them without disrupting your live trading environment.
Frequently Asked Questions
Get clear answers on securing your derivative price feeds. We address common technical, process, and security questions from CTOs and lead developers.
We follow a four-phase security-first methodology: 1) Architecture Review to design redundancy with multiple primary and fallback oracles (Chainlink, Pyth, custom). 2) Smart Contract Development using Solidity 0.8+ with formal verification for critical logic. 3) Comprehensive Testing including unit, integration, and scenario-based tests simulating market manipulation. 4) Third-Party Audits from firms like Quantstamp or CertiK, followed by a bug bounty program. This process has secured over $500M in TVL across 50+ derivative protocols.
