We architect, develop, and audit Solidity and Rust smart contracts for DeFi, NFTs, and enterprise protocols. Our code is built on OpenZeppelin standards and follows formal verification principles for maximum security.
Private Rollup Migration & Upgrade Services
Smart Contract Development
Secure, production-ready smart contracts built by Web3-native engineers.
From a 2-week MVP to a full protocol suite, we deliver contracts that are gas-optimized, upgradeable, and secure by design.
- Custom Logic: DeFi primitives (AMMs, lending/borrowing), NFT collections with dynamic traits, DAO governance modules.
- Security First: Multi-stage review process, integration with
SlitherandMythX, and preparation for third-party audits. - Full Lifecycle: Development, deployment, verification on Etherscan, and ongoing maintenance with versioning strategies.
Our Migration & Upgrade Capabilities
We manage the entire migration lifecycle—from initial assessment to post-deployment monitoring—ensuring zero downtime and full data integrity for your dApp and users.
Comprehensive Pre-Migration Audit
We perform a full security and architecture review of your existing L1 or L2 stack. Our analysis identifies risks, cost inefficiencies, and compatibility issues before a single line of code is moved.
Custom State & Data Migration
We design and execute secure, verifiable migration scripts for your smart contract state, user balances, and NFT metadata. Our process guarantees data consistency and prevents loss.
Seamless Network Transition
We orchestrate the cutover from your legacy network to the new private rollup, implementing phased deployments, bridge configurations, and RPC endpoint management to ensure uninterrupted service.
Post-Migration Validation & Monitoring
After migration, we conduct exhaustive testing—including load, security, and integration checks—and provide 24/7 monitoring dashboards for the first 30 days to ensure stability.
Smart Contract Upgrade Strategies
Implement upgrade patterns like Transparent Proxies or UUPS for future-proof contracts. We ensure upgrade security with multi-sig controls and comprehensive pre-upgrade testing.
Developer & End-User Documentation
We deliver complete technical documentation for your engineering team and clear migration guides for your end-users, minimizing support overhead and ensuring smooth adoption.
Business Outcomes of a Managed Migration
Our managed migration service delivers quantifiable improvements in security, performance, and operational efficiency, turning a complex upgrade into a strategic advantage.
Zero-Downtime Transition
Execute a seamless migration from your existing L1 or L2 to a private rollup with no service interruption for your end-users. We handle state synchronization and finality guarantees in the background.
Cost Reduction & Predictability
Move from variable, high gas fees to a predictable, fixed-cost infrastructure model. Achieve up to 90% reduction in transaction costs while maintaining Ethereum-level security.
Enhanced Security Posture
Deploy with a security-first architecture. Every migrated component undergoes rigorous testing and formal verification, backed by our partnership with leading audit firms like Trail of Bits.
Accelerated Time-to-Market
Leverage our battle-tested migration frameworks and proprietary tooling to go live on your new rollup in weeks, not months. We handle the heavy lifting of configuration, testing, and deployment.
Future-Proof Architecture
Gain the flexibility to upgrade sequencers, data availability layers, and fraud/validity proofs without another disruptive migration. Our modular design ensures long-term adaptability.
Dedicated Technical Ownership
Your team receives comprehensive knowledge transfer, detailed documentation, and full source code access. We ensure you have complete operational control post-migration.
Managed Migration vs. In-House Build
A detailed comparison of the total cost, risk, and time commitment required to migrate your application to a private rollup.
| Key Factor | In-House Build | Chainscore Managed Migration |
|---|---|---|
Time to Production | 6-12+ months | 4-8 weeks |
Upfront Capital Cost | $250K - $750K+ | $50K - $150K |
Security & Audit Overhead | High (unaudited, custom risk) | Low (pre-audited patterns, formal verification) |
Core Team Requirements | 3-5 senior blockchain engineers | 1 technical lead for integration |
Ongoing Node Operations | Your team (24/7 DevOps) | Fully managed by Chainscore |
Protocol Upgrade Management | Manual, high-risk process | Automated, zero-downtime upgrades |
Total Cost of Ownership (Year 1) | $500K - $1.2M+ | $120K - $300K |
Guaranteed Uptime SLA | None (self-managed) | 99.9% with financial backing |
Expert Support Access | Limited to hired team | Direct access to rollup core devs |
Our Phased Migration Methodology
Our battle-tested, four-phase framework ensures your rollup migration is executed with surgical precision, guaranteeing zero downtime for users and eliminating data loss. We de-risk the most complex infrastructure upgrades.
Phase 1: Discovery & Architecture
We conduct a full audit of your current state, mapping all smart contracts, dependencies, and data flows. This phase delivers a detailed migration blueprint and risk assessment, identifying critical paths and potential bottlenecks before a single line of code is changed.
Phase 2: Parallel Testnet Deployment
We deploy and rigorously test the new rollup stack on a dedicated testnet mirroring mainnet conditions. This includes load testing, state transition validation, and full regression suites to ensure functional parity and performance targets are met.
Phase 3: Staged Canary Migration
We execute a controlled, staged migration, moving non-critical functions and a subset of users first. Real-time monitoring and automated rollback protocols are active, allowing us to validate system stability and user experience with zero impact on your core business.
Phase 4: Full Cutover & Validation
Upon successful canary validation, we orchestrate the final cutover for all remaining state and traffic. The process includes post-migration verification, final security audits of the live environment, and comprehensive documentation handoff.

Private Rollup Migration FAQs
Answers to the most common questions from CTOs and technical founders about migrating to a private rollup. Based on our experience delivering 50+ high-value blockchain infrastructure projects.
A standard migration from a public L1 or existing L2 to a private rollup takes 2-4 weeks from kickoff to mainnet deployment. This includes environment setup, smart contract porting, sequencer configuration, and final security audit. Complex protocols with custom precompiles or intricate state management may extend to 6-8 weeks. We provide a detailed, phase-gated project plan on day one.
