Core Technical Capabilities
Our development process delivers production-ready, secure, and scalable micropayment channel networks. We focus on the technical outcomes that matter for your business: finality, cost, and reliability.
Payment Channel Hub Development
Deploy and manage scalable hub-and-spoke payment channel networks. Our architecture supports thousands of concurrent channels with sub-second settlement and automated dispute resolution.
Gas Optimization & Cost Engineering
We specialize in minimizing on-chain footprint. Our channel designs use signature aggregation, Merkle proofs, and batch settlements to reduce gas costs by over 90% compared to native on-chain transactions.
Watchtower & Monitoring Services
Deploy secure, non-custodial watchtower services to monitor channel states and protect user funds from malicious closures. Includes 24/7 alerting and automated response systems.
Business Outcomes for Your Platform
Our Micropayment Channel Network development delivers measurable improvements to your platform's core metrics, from user experience to operational costs.
Sub-Second Transaction Finality
Enable instant, off-chain payment confirmations for users, eliminating blockchain wait times and enabling real-time digital experiences.
Reduce Operational Costs by >95%
Batch thousands of microtransactions into a single on-chain settlement, slashing gas fees and making small-value payments economically viable.
Enterprise-Grade Security & Reliability
Networks built with formal verification, state channel security patterns, and automated dispute resolution to protect user funds.
Scale to Millions of Daily Transactions
Architected for horizontal scaling. Handle high-volume payment flows—like content streaming or IoT data—without blockchain congestion.
Seamless User Onboarding
Integrate with existing Web2 payment flows. Users interact without managing gas, wallets, or understanding blockchain complexities.
Faster Time-to-Market
Leverage our battle-tested channel framework and SDKs to deploy a production-ready network in weeks, not months.
Build vs. Buy: Micropayment Infrastructure
A detailed comparison of the total cost, risk, and time commitment for developing a micropayment channel network in-house versus partnering with Chainscore Labs.
| Factor | Build In-House | Chainscore Labs |
|---|---|---|
Time to Production | 6-12 months | 4-8 weeks |
Initial Development Cost | $250K - $600K+ | $50K - $150K |
Security Audit & Pen Testing | Additional $50K - $100K | Included |
Ongoing Team (DevOps, Security) | 2-3 FTEs ($300K+/year) | Optional SLA |
Infrastructure Uptime SLA | Self-managed (95-99%) | 99.9% Guaranteed |
Protocol Upgrades & Maintenance | Your team's responsibility | Managed Service |
Multi-Chain Support (EVM, L2s) | Custom integration per chain | Pre-built Connectors |
Total Cost of Ownership (Year 1) | $600K - $1M+ | $80K - $200K |
Risk Profile | High (Unaudited, Unproven) | Low (Audited, Battle-Tested) |
Our Delivery Process
A structured, milestone-driven approach to deliver your production-ready micropayment network on time and within spec. We focus on rapid iteration and clear communication to de-risk your project.
Discovery & Architecture Design
We conduct a technical deep-dive to define your network's topology, tokenomics, and security model. Deliverables include a detailed technical specification and architecture diagram.
Core Protocol Development
Our engineers build the state channel logic, dispute resolution mechanisms, and off-chain messaging layer using Solidity 0.8+ and OpenZeppelin standards.
Security Audit & Penetration Testing
Every contract undergoes rigorous internal review followed by a formal audit from a partner firm like Quantstamp or CertiK. We remediate all critical/high issues before deployment.
Testnet Deployment & Simulation
We deploy to Sepolia or Holesky, running load tests simulating thousands of concurrent payment channels. We validate finality, fee economics, and node performance.
Mainnet Launch & Monitoring
We manage the production deployment, configure blockchain explorers (like The Graph for indexing), and establish 24/7 monitoring with alerting for channel states and liquidity.
Documentation & Handoff
You receive complete technical documentation, operational runbooks, and admin dashboards. We provide training for your team and ongoing support options.
Technology & Protocol Expertise
Our development is anchored in battle-tested protocols and security-first engineering, ensuring your micropayment network is scalable, secure, and interoperable from day one.
Frequently Asked Questions
Get clear answers on development timelines, costs, security, and support for your custom micropayment infrastructure.
A standard deployment for a custom micropayment channel network takes 4-8 weeks, from initial architecture to mainnet deployment. This includes channel logic, dispute resolution, and integration with your existing wallet or dApp. Complex multi-chain or high-frequency systems may extend to 12 weeks. We provide a detailed sprint-by-sprint timeline during the discovery phase.
