We architect and deploy audit-ready smart contracts for tokens, DeFi protocols, and NFT projects. Our development process is built on Solidity 0.8+ and OpenZeppelin standards, ensuring security and gas efficiency from day one.
Staking Migration Service
Smart Contract Development
Secure, production-ready smart contracts built by Web3 experts to power your protocol.
- Token Systems: Custom
ERC-20,ERC-721, andERC-1155implementations with advanced features like vesting, staking, and governance. - DeFi & DAOs: Automated market makers (AMMs), yield vaults, and governance modules with formal verification.
- Security First: Every contract undergoes manual review and automated analysis before delivery, significantly reducing audit costs and time.
Deliver a secure, functional MVP in 2-4 weeks, not months. We handle the complex logic so you can focus on product-market fit.
End-to-End Managed Migration
We handle your entire staking migration from initial assessment to final cutover, ensuring zero downtime, zero slashing risk, and zero operational overhead for your team.
Pre-Migration Audit & Planning
Comprehensive analysis of your current staking setup, including validator health, reward performance, and slashing history. We deliver a detailed migration playbook with rollback procedures.
Validator Key Management
Secure generation, backup, and transfer of validator keys using hardware security modules (HSMs) and multi-party computation (MPC). Your keys are never exposed in plaintext.
Live Migration Execution
Orchestrated cutover with real-time monitoring of exit queues, activation epochs, and network consensus. We maintain your validator's attestation performance throughout the transition.
Post-Migration Validation & Support
30-day performance monitoring period with detailed reporting on rewards, proposal success, and infrastructure health. We guarantee operational stability post-migration.
Business Outcomes of a Seamless Migration
Migrating your staking infrastructure is a strategic investment. We deliver measurable outcomes that directly impact your bottom line and operational stability.
Zero Downtime & Uninterrupted Rewards
Maintain 100% validator uptime during the migration process, ensuring your stakers experience no slashing penalties or missed rewards. We orchestrate the cutover with atomic precision.
Reduced Operational Overhead by 70%
Eliminate the burden of manual node management, security patching, and 24/7 monitoring. Our managed service handles infrastructure, letting your team focus on core product development.
Accelerated Time-to-Market by 4-6 Weeks
Deploy a production-ready, multi-cloud staking cluster in under two weeks. Avoid months of in-house development, testing, and security audits. Go live faster and capture market share.
Enterprise-Grade Security & Compliance
Migrate to an infrastructure built with ISO 27001 principles, featuring HSM-based key management, DDoS protection, and regular audits. Meet the security standards demanded by institutional clients.
Scalable Architecture for Future Growth
Our auto-scaling, multi-region infrastructure supports validator sets from 10 to 10,000+. Seamlessly handle increased stake, new networks, and geographic expansion without re-architecting.
Enhanced Staker Trust & Retention
Provide stakeholders with transparent, real-time performance dashboards and superior reliability. A seamless migration experience builds confidence and reduces churn, protecting your TVL.
Managed Migration vs. DIY or Ad-Hoc Support
A direct comparison of the cost, risk, and resource trade-offs between managing a staking migration yourself, using piecemeal consultants, or partnering with Chainscore for a fully managed service.
| Migration Factor | DIY / In-House | Ad-Hoc Consultants | Chainscore Managed |
|---|---|---|---|
Time to Production | 3-6 months | 2-4 months | 4-8 weeks |
Upfront Capital Cost | $150K-$400K+ | $80K-$200K | $50K-$150K |
Security & Audit Burden | Your team (High risk) | Variable (Medium risk) | Fully managed (Low risk) |
Protocol Expertise Depth | Learning curve | Specialized but narrow | Deep, multi-chain team |
Post-Migration Support | Your team's responsibility | Limited or hourly | Included with SLA (99.9% uptime) |
Key Risk: Slashing Events | Your liability | Shared liability | Our liability & insurance |
Validator Performance | Your optimization | Basic setup | Continuous optimization & monitoring |
Total Cost of Ownership (Year 1) | $200K-$500K+ | $120K-$300K | $75K-$180K |
Our Proven 4-Phase Migration Methodology
A structured, security-first approach to migrating your staking infrastructure with zero downtime and guaranteed slashing protection.
Phase 1: Discovery & Architecture Audit
We conduct a comprehensive audit of your current staking setup, validator configurations, and key management. This phase identifies technical debt, security vulnerabilities, and defines the optimal target architecture for performance and cost.
Phase 2: Secure Key Migration & Validation
Our proprietary tooling orchestrates the secure, offline generation and transfer of validator keys. Every key is cryptographically validated before deployment to eliminate the risk of slashing due to duplicate or incorrect keys.
Phase 3: Staggered Validator Deployment
We deploy new validators in controlled, monitored batches, maintaining full operational status of your legacy system. This phased cutover ensures continuous block proposal and attestation, preserving your staking rewards throughout the migration.
Phase 4: Monitoring, Optimization & Handoff
Post-migration, we provide 30 days of enhanced monitoring, performance benchmarking against baseline, and optimization recommendations. We deliver full documentation and operational runbooks for your team.
Staking Migration FAQs
Get clear, specific answers to the most common questions CTOs and founders ask when evaluating a staking migration partner.
Our standard migration from legacy infrastructure to a new validator setup takes 2-4 weeks. This includes architecture review, smart contract deployment, validator key generation, and a phased cutover with monitoring. Complex migrations involving custom slashing logic or multi-chain support may extend to 6-8 weeks. We provide a detailed project plan within the first 3 days of engagement.
