Interplanetary File System (IPFS) Cluster Management

Provision, configure, and manage scalable, high-availability IPFS clusters for enterprise-grade data sharding, ensuring performant pinning, content routing, and data replication.
Chainscore © 2026
overview
CORE SERVICE

Smart Contract Development

Secure, production-ready smart contracts built for scale and compliance.

We architect and deploy custom smart contracts for ERC-20, ERC-721, and complex DeFi protocols. Our code is built on Solidity 0.8+ with OpenZeppelin standards and undergoes rigorous security audits before mainnet deployment.

  • Faster Time-to-Market: Go from spec to testnet in 2-4 weeks.
  • Proven Security: Formal verification and third-party audits from firms like CertiK and Quantstamp.
  • Gas Optimization: Contracts designed for up to 40% lower transaction costs.

We deliver battle-tested contracts that power live applications handling $100M+ in TVL, ensuring reliability from day one.
