Proposer-Builder Separation (PBS) Consulting

We design and implement secure PBS architectures for proof-of-stake networks, building custom relay and builder infrastructure to decentralize block production and mitigate validator-level MEV.
Chainscore © 2026
overview
CORE SERVICE

Smart Contract Development

Secure, production-ready smart contracts built by Web3-native engineers.

We architect and deploy custom smart contracts for DeFi, NFTs, and enterprise protocols. Our engineers specialize in Solidity, Rust (Solana), and Move (Aptos/Sui) to deliver gas-optimized, auditable code that powers your core business logic.

From initial concept to mainnet deployment, we ensure your contracts are secure, scalable, and ready for high-value transactions.

  • Security-First Development: Adherence to OpenZeppelin standards and formal verification practices to mitigate exploits.
  • Full Lifecycle Support: Development, testing (Hardhat/Foundry), auditing coordination, and deployment automation.
  • Measurable Outcomes: Deliver production-ready contracts in 2-4 weeks, with 99.9%+ reliability post-audit.

Custom Blockchain Development

End-to-end blockchain solutions from protocol design to production deployment.

We build custom blockchain networks and layer-2 solutions tailored to your specific transaction volume, privacy, and governance needs. Our full-cycle development delivers production-ready infrastructure in 8-12 weeks, not just proof-of-concepts.

  • Protocol & Consensus Design: Custom EVM-compatible chains, Substrate-based networks, and zk-Rollup scaling solutions.
  • Node & Validator Infrastructure: Automated deployment with 99.9% uptime SLA, monitoring, and key management.
  • Smart Contract Suite: Core protocol logic, governance modules, and upgradeable contracts using OpenZeppelin standards.

We handle the entire stack so your team can focus on application logic and user acquisition, not consensus mechanics or node operations.

Expert Answers for Builders

PBS Consulting FAQs

Get clarity on our Proposer-Builder Separation consulting process, timelines, and outcomes.

A standard PBS integration for a new validator or relay service takes 2-4 weeks from kickoff to mainnet deployment. This includes architecture design, smart contract development, integration testing, and security review. Complex multi-relay setups or custom MEV strategies may extend the timeline, which we scope and quote for individually.
