CORE INFRASTRUCTURE
Smart Contract Development
Secure, gas-optimized smart contracts built for production at scale.
- Custom Logic: From
ERC-20/721/1155tokens to complex DeFi protocols and DAO governance. - Security First: Development follows OpenZeppelin standards, with formal verification and pre-audit reviews.
- Gas Optimization: Every contract is profiled and optimized to reduce user transaction costs by 15-40%.
- Full Lifecycle: Development, testing (
Hardhat/Foundry), deployment, and upgrade management via Transparent Proxies.
Deploy a secure, audited MVP in as little as 2 weeks. We build the immutable foundation your application depends on.

BUILT FOR ENTERPRISE
Core Architectural Components
Our custody system is engineered from the ground up with institutional-grade security, regulatory compliance, and operational resilience. Each component is designed to meet the stringent requirements of financial institutions and high-growth Web3 startups.
01
Multi-Party Computation (MPC) Vaults
Eliminate single points of failure with distributed key management. Our MPC architecture ensures no single party can access funds, providing cryptographic security that exceeds traditional multi-sig wallets.
NIST FIPS 140-2
Compliant
0
Single Points of Failure
02
Policy Engine & Transaction Signing
Enforce granular, role-based access controls and compliance rules. Define approval workflows, transaction limits, and whitelists programmatically before any signature is generated.

Strategic Decision Analysis
Build vs. Buy: Custody for Regulated Assets
A detailed comparison of the total cost, risk, and time implications of developing a compliant custody solution in-house versus partnering with Chainscore Labs.
| Key Factor | Build In-House | Partner with Chainscore |
|---|---|---|
Time to Production Launch | 9-18 months | 8-12 weeks |
Initial Development Cost | $300K - $800K+ | $75K - $200K |
Annual Maintenance & Ops Cost | $150K - $300K | $50K - $120K (SLA) |
Security & Compliance Risk | High (Self-managed audits, key management) | Low (Pre-audited architecture, MPC custody) |
Regulatory Expertise Required | Must hire/retain legal & compliance team | Built-in for MiCA, Travel Rule, AML/CFT |
Technical Debt & Upgrades | Your team manages all protocol upgrades | We handle upgrades, patches, and new chain integrations |
Time-to-First-Client | Delayed by 12+ months of development | Accelerated; onboard clients during implementation |
Team Focus | Diverted to infrastructure, not core product | Remains on your unique product and growth |

PROVEN FRAMEWORK
Our Delivery Methodology
A structured, phased approach to designing and deploying secure, compliant custody systems that meet regulatory requirements and scale with your business.
01
Discovery & Compliance Mapping
We conduct a deep-dive analysis of your target jurisdictions and user base to map regulatory requirements (FATF Travel Rule, MiCA, NYDFS BitLicense) directly to technical specifications.
