Bitcoin IoT Payment System Legacy Modernization

We migrate your legacy IoT billing and payment infrastructure to a modern Bitcoin and Lightning Network architecture, ensuring backward compatibility and zero operational disruption.
Chainscore © 2026
overview
SECURE FOUNDATIONS

Smart Contract Development

Production-ready smart contracts built with security-first principles and gas optimization.

We deliver audit-ready code from day one. Our development process integrates formal verification and automated testing, ensuring your core logic is secure and reliable before deployment.

  • Custom Token Standards: ERC-20, ERC-721, ERC-1155, and bespoke implementations.
  • DeFi Protocols: Automated market makers (AMMs), lending/borrowing pools, staking contracts.
  • Enterprise Logic: Multi-signature wallets, upgradeable proxies, and custom governance systems.
  • Gas Optimization: Achieve up to 40% lower transaction costs through efficient bytecode and storage patterns.

Deploy with confidence. Our contracts are built on Solidity 0.8+ using OpenZeppelin libraries and include comprehensive test coverage, documentation, and a security review report.

Core Capabilities of Our Migration Service

We deliver a complete, secure, and future-proof migration from legacy Bitcoin IoT payment systems to a modern, scalable architecture. Our process is designed to minimize downtime, eliminate technical debt, and unlock new revenue streams.

01

Legacy System Audit & Decommissioning

We perform a comprehensive audit of your existing Bitcoin payment infrastructure, including hardware, firmware, and transaction logic. Our team then executes a phased decommissioning plan to ensure zero transaction loss during the migration.

Bitcoin IoT Migration: Common Questions

Get specific answers on timelines, costs, security, and process for modernizing your legacy Bitcoin IoT payment infrastructure.

A standard migration from legacy systems (like SPV wallets or direct RPC calls) to a modern architecture (using PSBTs, BOLT standards, or Lightning) takes 2-4 weeks from kickoff to production deployment. This includes assessment, development, integration testing, and a security review. Complex multi-device ecosystems or custom protocol development can extend to 6-8 weeks.
