METHODOLOGY
Our Governance Risk Assessment Framework
A systematic, four-phase approach to identify, quantify, and mitigate governance risks in your restaking protocol. We deliver actionable intelligence, not just reports.
01
Phase 1: Architecture & Protocol Analysis
Deep technical audit of your smart contract architecture, governance mechanisms, and integration with underlying restaking layers (EigenLayer, Babylon). We map all attack vectors and failure modes.

Phase 2: Stakeholder & Incentive Modeling
Analysis of validator, operator, and delegator incentives. We simulate slashing scenarios, withdrawal delays, and governance capture risks under various market conditions.

Build vs. Buy: In-House vs. Chainscore Consulting
Compare the cost, time, and risk of building a restaking governance risk framework internally versus partnering with our specialized consulting team.
| Factor | Build In-House | Chainscore Consulting |
|---|---|---|
Time to Deploy Framework | 4-6 months | 4-6 weeks |
Initial Security Audit | External Vendor ($20K-$50K) | Included |
Team Expertise Required | 2-3 Sr. Solidity Devs + Security Lead | Dedicated Consultant Team |
Ongoing Risk Monitoring | Manual Dashboard Build ($100K+) | Included with Platform Access |
Slashing & Penalty Analysis | Custom Scripts (High Error Risk) | Proven Models & Simulations |
Protocol Coverage | Limited to 1-2 Networks | EigenLayer, Karak, Symbiotic, etc. |
Total First-Year Cost | $250K - $600K+ | $80K - $200K |
Response Time for New Risks | Weeks (Internal Triage) | < 48 Hours (SLA) |

STRUCTURED APPROACH
Our Four-Phase Engagement Process
A proven methodology to systematically de-risk your restaking strategy, from initial assessment to continuous governance. We deliver actionable insights, not just reports.
01
Phase 1: Risk & Architecture Assessment
We conduct a deep-dive audit of your current or planned restaking architecture. This includes protocol dependency mapping, slashing condition analysis, and smart contract risk profiling to establish a baseline.

Restaking Governance Risk Consulting FAQs
Get clear answers on our methodology, timeline, and deliverables for assessing and mitigating risks in restaking and governance systems.
Our methodology is a three-phase process: 1) Architecture Review - We audit your smart contract logic, slashing conditions, and validator selection mechanisms. 2) Economic Modeling - We simulate attack vectors, analyze tokenomics for centralization risks, and stress-test your incentive structures. 3) Operational Assessment - We review multisig configurations, upgrade paths, and off-chain governance processes. This framework is based on our experience securing over $500M in TVL across 50+ DeFi protocols.
