Staking Migration Service

A managed service for crypto projects and institutions to seamlessly migrate staking infrastructure between providers, data centers, or client versions with zero downtime or slashing risk.
Chainscore © 2026
overview
CORE SERVICE

Smart Contract Development

Secure, production-ready smart contracts built by Web3 experts to power your protocol.

We architect and deploy audit-ready smart contracts for tokens, DeFi protocols, and NFT projects. Our development process is built on Solidity 0.8+ and OpenZeppelin standards, ensuring security and gas efficiency from day one.

  • Token Systems: Custom ERC-20, ERC-721, and ERC-1155 implementations with advanced features like vesting, staking, and governance.
  • DeFi & DAOs: Automated market makers (AMMs), yield vaults, and governance modules with formal verification.
  • Security First: Every contract undergoes manual review and automated analysis before delivery, significantly reducing audit costs and time.

Deliver a secure, functional MVP in 2-4 weeks, not months. We handle the complex logic so you can focus on product-market fit.

Staking Migration FAQs

Get clear, specific answers to the most common questions CTOs and founders ask when evaluating a staking migration partner.

Our standard migration from legacy infrastructure to a new validator setup takes 2-4 weeks. This includes architecture review, smart contract deployment, validator key generation, and a phased cutover with monitoring. Complex migrations involving custom slashing logic or multi-chain support may extend to 6-8 weeks. We provide a detailed project plan within the first 3 days of engagement.
