Slashing Protection Service

overview

CORE SERVICE

Smart Contract Development

Secure, production-ready smart contracts built by Web3 experts for your token, DeFi, or NFT project.

We architect and deploy custom smart contracts on EVM-compatible chains (Ethereum, Polygon, Arbitrum) and Solana. Our development process is built for security and speed, delivering a production-ready MVP in 2-3 weeks.

We don't just write code; we engineer systems that are secure by design, gas-optimized, and ready to scale.

Security-First Development: Code built with Solidity 0.8+ or Rust, following OpenZeppelin patterns and undergoing rigorous internal audits before deployment.
Full-Spectrum Solutions: From standard ERC-20, ERC-721, and ERC-1155 tokens to complex DeFi primitives like AMMs, lending pools, and staking contracts.
Post-Deployment Support: Includes verification on block explorers, comprehensive documentation, and integration support for your front-end.

ENTERPRISE-GRADE SECURITY

Core Protection & Monitoring Capabilities

Our slashing protection service is built on battle-tested infrastructure, delivering proactive defense and real-time visibility to secure your validator operations and maximize rewards.

Real-Time Slashing Detection

Continuous monitoring of validator signatures across all supported networks. Our system flags double-signing and surround-voting risks before they result in penalties, giving you a critical window to intervene.

< 30 sec

Alert Latency

100%

Coverage

Multi-Client & Multi-Network Support

Seamlessly protect validators running on Prysm, Lighthouse, Teku, and Nimbus. We provide unified protection across Ethereum Mainnet, Holesky, and other EVM-compatible chains from a single dashboard.

Networks

Automated Attestation Safeguards

Intelligent algorithms prevent validators from publishing conflicting attestations by enforcing strict rules on source and target epochs, eliminating the primary cause of slashing events.

Enforcement

Historical Data Analysis & Forensics

Gain insights from past performance with detailed logs and analytics. Investigate near-miss events, track validator health over time, and generate compliance-ready reports for stakeholders.

High-Availability Infrastructure

Deployed across geographically distributed nodes with automatic failover. Our service maintains 99.9% uptime SLA, ensuring your protection layer is always active when your validators are live.

The Infrastructure Decision for Validator Operators

Build vs. Buy: Slashing Protection Infrastructure

A detailed comparison of the time, cost, and risk associated with developing slashing protection in-house versus leveraging Chainscore's managed service.

Key Factor	Build In-House	Chainscore Managed Service
Time to Initial Deployment	6-9 months	2-4 weeks
Upfront Engineering Cost	$150K - $300K+	$0 (OpEx model)
Security Audit & Penetration Testing	Required ($50K - $100K)	Included (pre-audited system)
Ongoing Maintenance & Updates	1-2 FTEs ($200K+/year)	Fully managed by Chainscore
Multi-Chain Support (e.g., Ethereum, Cosmos)	Per-chain development required	Unified API for 15+ chains
High-Availability & Disaster Recovery	Your responsibility to build	99.95% SLA with geo-redundancy
Real-Time Alerting & Incident Response	Custom integration needed	Pre-built dashboard & PagerDuty/Slack alerts
Total Cost of Ownership (Year 1)	$400K - $600K+	Starting at $60K/year
Risk of Slashing Due to Implementation Flaws	High (untested, bespoke code)	Negligible (battle-tested, audited)
