SECURE, AUDITED CODE
Custom Smart Contract Development
Production-ready smart contracts built for security, scalability, and real-world utility.
Deliver a secure, functional MVP in as little as 2-4 weeks, accelerating your path to market and user trust.
Our full-service development covers:
- Token Standards: Custom
ERC-20,ERC-721,ERC-1155, andERC-4626vaults. - DeFi Primitives: Automated Market Makers (AMMs), staking pools, lending protocols, and yield aggregators.
- Governance Systems: DAO frameworks with custom voting and treasury management.
- Enterprise Logic: Complex business rules, access control, and upgradeable proxy patterns.
Every contract undergoes a rigorous multi-stage audit process, including internal review, automated analysis with tools like Slither and MythX, and final verification by external security partners. We provide comprehensive documentation and deployment support on your chain of choice.

PROVEN PROCESS
Our Migration Methodology
A structured, security-first approach to migrate your legacy royalty logic to a modern, on-chain system without disrupting your business.
01
Discovery & Architecture Audit
We perform a deep technical analysis of your existing royalty logic, payment flows, and data structures. This phase establishes the migration blueprint, identifying dependencies and defining the target on-chain architecture (e.g., ERC-2981, custom splitter contracts).
1-2 weeks
Analysis Phase

Logic Mapped
02
Smart Contract Development & Testing
Our engineers build the core royalty smart contracts using audited patterns (OpenZeppelin) and Solidity 0.8+. Every contract undergoes rigorous unit, integration, and scenario testing to ensure flawless payment execution and security.

03
Staged Data Migration
We execute a phased migration of payee data and historical entitlements to the new system. This includes secure, verifiable data validation and the use of migration contracts to ensure no royalty payment is lost or duplicated during the cutover.

Legacy System vs. Chainscore Migration
A direct comparison of the costs, risks, and timelines associated with maintaining a custom-built legacy royalty system versus migrating to Chainscore's managed service.
| Key Factor | Maintain Legacy System | Migrate with Chainscore |
|---|---|---|
Time to Upgrade / Deploy | 3-6 months (internal dev) | 2-4 weeks (managed migration) |
Initial Development & Migration Cost | $150K - $500K+ | $25K - $75K (one-time) |
Annual Maintenance & DevOps Cost | $80K - $200K (FTE cost) | $15K - $50K (managed SLA) |
Security Posture | High Risk (custom, unaudited code) | Enterprise-Grade (pre-audited, battle-tested) |
Royalty Enforcement Reliability | Variable (depends on custom logic) |
|
Multi-Chain Support | Complex, requires per-chain deployment | Native (Ethereum, Polygon, Arbitrum, Base, Solana) |
Real-Time Analytics & Reporting | Requires separate build | Included (dashboard & APIs) |
Smart Contract Upgrade Path | Risky, manual migrations | Safe, versioned upgrades with rollback |
Support & Incident Response | Internal team on-call | 24/7 SRE team with <1hr response SLA |

Legacy Royalty Migration
Frequently Asked Questions
Answers to common questions about migrating from legacy royalty systems to on-chain, programmable solutions.
A standard migration project takes 4-8 weeks from kickoff to mainnet deployment. This includes 1-2 weeks for architecture and smart contract design, 2-3 weeks for development and internal testing, 1 week for client UAT, and 1-2 weeks for security audits and final deployment. Complex ecosystems with multiple existing contracts may extend this timeline.
