We architect and deploy the foundational logic for your dApp. Our development process delivers audit-ready code in Solidity, Rust (Solana), or Vyper, with a focus on gas optimization and security-first design patterns.
Validator Governance UI/UX Design Specialization
Smart Contract Development
Secure, production-ready smart contracts built by Web3 experts for your protocol or application.
- Custom Logic: From
ERC-20/721/1155tokens to complex DeFi primitives and DAO governance systems. - Full Lifecycle: Development, comprehensive testing, deployment, and post-launch monitoring.
- Security Rigor: Adherence to OpenZeppelin standards and preparation for formal audits by firms like CertiK or Quantstamp.
Move from concept to a live, secure mainnet contract in as little as 2-4 weeks for an MVP. We ensure your business logic is immutable, efficient, and resilient.
Core Design & Development Capabilities
We deliver production-ready governance interfaces that drive higher validator participation and reduce operational overhead. Our full-stack approach integrates security, performance, and user experience from day one.
Custom Governance Dashboard Development
Build bespoke dashboards for proposal voting, delegation analytics, and reward tracking. We use React/Next.js with Web3 libraries (wagmi, viem) for real-time on-chain data integration, ensuring CTOs and community members have a unified view of network health.
Staking & Delegation UI/UX
Design intuitive flows for token staking, validator selection, and delegation management. We implement secure transaction signing with WalletConnect and Ledger Live support, reducing user error and increasing total value locked (TVL).
Multi-Chain Governance Integration
Unify governance actions across Ethereum, Cosmos, Polkadot, and Solana from a single interface. Our engineers build with chain-agnostic libraries, allowing your validators to manage assets and votes without switching contexts.
Real-Time Analytics & Alerting
Embed live metrics for block production, uptime, slashing risks, and reward accrual. We connect to indexed RPC endpoints and subgraphs, providing validators with proactive alerts to prevent missed blocks or penalties.
Security-First Architecture
Implement battle-tested security practices including multi-sig transaction flows, role-based access control (RBAC), and comprehensive audit trails. All frontends are built with SSG/SSR to mitigate client-side injection risks.
Business Outcomes for Your Protocol
Our specialized governance UI/UX design delivers more than just an interface. We build the critical systems that drive measurable protocol growth, security, and community alignment.
Higher Voter Turnout & Engagement
We design intuitive dashboards and voting flows that reduce friction, increasing active participation from 5% to 40+%. This leads to more legitimate, decentralized decisions.
Reduced Governance Attack Surface
Our security-first UX patterns and smart contract integrations prevent common errors like vote manipulation, delegation pitfalls, and proposal spam, protecting your treasury.
Faster Time-to-Market for Upgrades
Deploy a production-ready, custom governance frontend in weeks, not months. We provide reusable, modular components for Snapshot, Tally, and custom backends.
Build vs. Buy: Governance UI Specialization
A detailed comparison of the costs, risks, and time investments required to build a production-grade governance UI in-house versus partnering with Chainscore's specialized team.

Initial Development Cost | $150K - $400K+ | $25K - $75K |
Security Audit Overhead | Separate $30K-$100K cost | Included in delivery |
Ongoing Maintenance & Updates | 1-2 FTE Engineers | Optional SLA from $5K/month |
Voter Experience (UX) Quality | Variable; requires specialized design | Optimized for 85%+ participation |
Multi-Chain & Wallet Support | Custom integration per chain | Pre-built for Ethereum, Polygon, Arbitrum, Base |
Compliance & Reporting Features | Custom build required | Standard with audit trails |
Total Year 1 Cost (Est.) | $300K - $750K | $50K - $150K |
Our Process: Research, Design, Build, Integrate
We deliver secure, user-centric governance interfaces through a proven four-phase framework. Each stage is designed to mitigate risk, ensure stakeholder alignment, and accelerate your time-to-market.
Research & Stakeholder Mapping
We conduct in-depth analysis of your validator set, tokenomics, and governance parameters to identify key user personas, pain points, and decision-making workflows. This foundational research ensures the UI aligns with real-world delegation and voting behaviors.
UX Architecture & Wireframing
We structure complex governance actions—like proposal creation, voting, and slashing event monitoring—into intuitive user flows. Our wireframes prioritize clarity for token holders and operational efficiency for node operators.
UI Design & Prototyping
We craft high-fidelity, brand-aligned interfaces with a focus on data visualization for staking metrics, proposal status, and network health. Interactive prototypes are tested for usability before any code is written.
Development & Chain Integration
Our engineers build production-ready React/Next.js applications integrated directly with your blockchain's RPC endpoints and governance smart contracts. We implement real-time data feeds and secure wallet connectivity (MetaMask, WalletConnect).
