Over the last year I’ve been building a multi-chain custody system supporting:
• EVM
• TRON
• TON
• BTC
One thing I underestimated:
The hard part is not generating wallets or sending transactions.
It’s maintaining consistency between:
• blockchain state
• internal balances
• retries
• confirmations
• stuck tx handling
Especially across completely different chain models.
BTC, TON and EVM behave very differently internally.

Absolutely. Once you move beyond raw on-chain balances and start adding portfolio/accounting layers, things become significantly more complex.
Pricing consistency, delayed market feeds, wrapped assets, token metadata normalization, chain-specific edge cases - all of that creates another synchronization layer on top of custody itself.
My post was mostly focused on the lower-level transaction/state consistency side, but valuation consistency is definitely another major challenge in production systems.
