Institutional Cross-Chain Settlement Messaging

We design and build secure, auditable messaging infrastructure for financial institutions to settle assets and data across permissioned and public blockchain networks with compliance and finality guarantees.
Chainscore © 2026
overview
CORE SERVICE

Smart Contract Development

Secure, production-ready smart contracts built by Web3-native engineers.

We architect and deploy custom smart contracts that form the backbone of your protocol. Our development process is built for security and scalability from day one.

  • Security-First Development: Code is written in Solidity 0.8+ using OpenZeppelin libraries and follows industry-standard patterns.
  • Comprehensive Testing: Every contract undergoes unit, integration, and scenario testing with Hardhat or Foundry before deployment.
  • Gas Optimization: We write efficient code to minimize transaction costs for your users, a critical factor for adoption.

We deliver audit-ready code with detailed documentation, enabling faster security reviews and a smoother path to mainnet.

Our engineers specialize in:

  • Token Standards: ERC-20, ERC-721, ERC-1155, and custom implementations.
  • DeFi Primitives: Automated Market Makers (AMMs), staking pools, and lending logic.
  • Governance Systems: DAO frameworks, multi-sig integrations, and voting mechanisms.
  • Upgradeable Architecture: Using Transparent Proxy or UUPS patterns for future-proofing.

Our Delivery Methodology: From Design to Production

A structured, four-phase engagement model designed for institutional clients. We deliver production-ready cross-chain messaging infrastructure with clear milestones, transparent communication, and guaranteed security standards.

01

Phase 1: Architecture & Design

We conduct a technical deep-dive to design a custom settlement architecture. This includes protocol selection (CCIP, Wormhole, LayerZero), risk modeling, and finalizing a detailed technical specification document for client sign-off.

Deliverable: Signed Technical Specification & Architecture Blueprint.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions from CTOs and technical leads evaluating our enterprise-grade messaging infrastructure.

A standard deployment for a production-ready cross-chain messaging hub takes 4-6 weeks. This includes 1 week for architecture design and chain selection, 2-3 weeks for core smart contract development and integration, 1 week for internal security review, and 1 week for deployment and configuration. Complex multi-asset or bespoke logic can extend this to 8-10 weeks. We provide a detailed project plan in the initial technical scoping call.
