overview
SCALABLE FOUNDATION

Blockchain Infrastructure for FinTechs

Enterprise-grade blockchain infrastructure for secure, compliant financial applications.

We build and manage the foundational infrastructure your FinTech needs to operate on-chain with 99.9% uptime SLA and bank-grade security. This eliminates the operational burden of running your own nodes, allowing your team to focus on product innovation.

  • Multi-Chain RPC & Node Management: Reliable access to Ethereum, Polygon, Solana, and other major networks.
  • Real-Time Data Indexing: Custom subgraphs and APIs for transaction history, token balances, and DeFi protocol data.
  • Enhanced Security & Compliance: SOC 2 Type II aligned infrastructure with automated monitoring and alerting for anomalous activity.
  • Regulatory Readiness: Tools for address screening (TRM Labs, Chainalysis) and audit trails to simplify compliance.

Deploy a production-ready blockchain backend in under 2 weeks, not months. We handle the complexity so you can launch faster and scale confidently.

Strategic Infrastructure Decision

Build a Custom AppChain vs. Using a Public Network

A technical and business comparison to help CTOs and technical founders evaluate the optimal blockchain infrastructure path for their specific use case, compliance needs, and growth trajectory.

Decision FactorPublic Network (e.g., Ethereum L2)Custom AppChain with Chainscore

Time to Production

1-2 weeks

Development & Setup Cost

$0 - $50K (gas, tooling)

$75K - $250K+ (design, deployment)

Annual Operational Cost

Variable (high gas fees, scaling costs)

Predictable (infrastructure hosting, optional SLA)

Transaction Throughput & Fees

Shared, variable, subject to congestion

Dedicated, predictable, configurable

Data Privacy & Compliance

Transparent, on-chain data

Private, customizable (permissioned validators, encrypted mempool)

Technical Control & Upgrades

Full sovereignty (forkless upgrades, custom logic)

Native Token Requirement

Yes (ETH, MATIC, etc.)

Optional (use any token or fee model)

Security Foundation

Inherits from base layer (e.g., Ethereum)

Bespoke, audited + inherited security via rollup/validium

Our proven 4-phase engagement delivers a production-ready AppChain in 6-10 weeks.

  1. Discovery & Architecture (1-2 weeks): Deep-dive workshops to define consensus, tokenomics, and integration points.
  2. Core Development (3-5 weeks): Implementation of the chain client, smart contract suite, and validator tooling.
  3. Testnet & Security (2-3 weeks): Deployment to a private testnet, comprehensive internal testing, and integration with third-party auditors.
  4. Mainnet Launch & Handoff (1 week): Genesis block creation, validator onboarding, and full documentation delivery.

We provide a fixed-price proposal and detailed sprint plan after the discovery phase.
