Legacy Chat Platform Web3 Migration

Integrate token-gating into your existing Discord, Telegram, or forum. Enable premium access, exclusive channels, and hybrid community models without a full platform rebuild.
Chainscore © 2026
overview
CORE SERVICE

Smart Contract Development

Secure, production-ready smart contracts built by Web3 experts.

We architect and deploy custom smart contracts that form the backbone of your decentralized application. Our development process is built on security-first principles, utilizing OpenZeppelin libraries and comprehensive audit trails.

From concept to mainnet, we deliver contracts that are secure, gas-optimized, and ready to scale.

  • Token Standards: ERC-20, ERC-721, ERC-1155, and custom implementations.
  • Protocol Logic: DEX/AMMs, staking systems, governance modules, and multi-signature wallets.
  • Key Deliverables: Full test suite, deployment scripts, and technical documentation.

Our 4-Week Delivery Methodology

We deliver your legacy chat platform's Web3 migration in a fixed timeline with zero surprises. Our phased approach ensures security, user experience, and business logic are seamlessly transitioned on-chain.

01

Week 1: Discovery & Architecture

We conduct a comprehensive audit of your existing platform, map user flows, and design the on-chain architecture. This includes selecting the optimal L2 (Polygon, Arbitrum, Base) and token standards (ERC-20, ERC-1155) for your use case.
