DID Migration Service for Chain Upgrades

A managed service to securely migrate user DID documents, verifiable credentials, and associated state from deprecated systems to new networks or smart contracts with zero downtime.
Chainscore © 2026
overview
SECURE FOUNDATIONS

Smart Contract Development

Production-ready smart contracts built for security, gas efficiency, and seamless integration.

We architect and deploy audit-ready smart contracts for tokens, DeFi protocols, NFTs, and DAOs. Our development process is built on OpenZeppelin standards and Solcurity security patterns, ensuring your core logic is robust from day one.

Deliver a secure, gas-optimized MVP in as little as 2-4 weeks, with a clear path to mainnet deployment.

Our full-service development includes:

  • Custom logic for ERC-20, ERC-721, ERC-1155, and bespoke protocols.
  • Gas optimization reviews to minimize user transaction costs.
  • Integration-ready code with comprehensive documentation and test suites.
  • Pre-audit preparation, structuring code for seamless review by top security firms.

We focus on long-term maintainability. Every contract is built with upgradeability patterns like Transparent Proxy or UUPS, modular architecture for easy feature updates, and full deployment scripts for any EVM-compatible chain.

PROVEN METHODOLOGY

Our Phased, Zero-Downtime Migration Process

We execute DID migrations for protocol upgrades with surgical precision, ensuring no service disruption for your users. Our battle-tested process isolates risk and guarantees data integrity at every stage.

01

Phase 1: Audit & Strategy

We conduct a full audit of your existing DID implementation and dependencies. Our team delivers a detailed migration blueprint with rollback procedures, risk assessment, and a phased rollout schedule.

48-72 hours
Initial Audit

Phase 2: Parallel Environment

We deploy and validate the new DID system (e.g., W3C Decentralized Identifiers v1.0, Verifiable Credentials) in a production-mirrored staging environment. This allows for exhaustive testing without touching live user data.

Phase 3: Dual-Write & Validation

We implement a dual-write mechanism where new user actions are recorded in both legacy and new systems. This creates a verifiable audit trail and allows for real-time data consistency checks before cutover.

Phase 4: Gradual Traffic Cutover

Using feature flags and canary deployments, we redirect a small percentage of user traffic to the new DID system. We monitor performance and user experience metrics, scaling up only after confirming stability.

Phase 5: Full Migration & Legacy Sunset

Once 100% of traffic is successfully served by the new system, we execute the final data sync and decommission the legacy infrastructure. We provide a post-migration report detailing the process and outcomes.

DID Migration Service: Frequently Asked Questions

Technical answers for teams planning a decentralized identity system upgrade. Based on our experience migrating 50+ projects to new DID standards.

Our standard DID migration from a legacy system (e.g., v0.1, custom registry) to a modern standard (e.g., W3C DID Core, ERC-725/ERC-734) takes 2-4 weeks. This includes audit, smart contract deployment, data migration, and integration testing. Complex migrations involving multiple identity types or cross-chain attestations may extend to 6-8 weeks. We provide a detailed project plan within the first 48 hours of engagement.
