The chess kingTranchess (CHESS)
Tranchess is a protocol designed to enhance yields while offering diverse risk-return options for asset management. The idea for Tranchess emerged in early 2020, evolving rapidly into its present form. Drawing inspiration from tranche funds which cater to different investor risk preferences, Tranchess operates by creating multiple risk/return profiles from a single principal fund. This fund can track a single cryptocurrency like BTC, ETH, or BNB, or even a combination of various crypto assets.
CHESS serves as the governance token for the Tranchess protocol, where holders can earn it by staking QUEEN, BISHOP, or ROOK tokens. CHESS can be traded on exchanges like Binance and Pancake Swap. By locking CHESS, users generate veCHESS, which allows them to engage in weekly rebates and governance decisions within the Tranchess ecosystem.
Architecture and Specs
The Tranchess Protocol is designed to enhance yield by offering a range of risk-return solutions that diversify the risk/return profiles from a single primary fund tracking a specific underlying asset, like BTC. Here's an overview of the Tranchess Protocol architecture. Each module comprises multiple smart contracts to achieve the necessary functions. Everything is developed in-house, except for two contracts under the "Asset" category, which are adaptations from other protocols.
The Tranchess Fund Protocol operates as a collection of smart contracts that form its primary market framework. Here, an underlying asset serves as the foundation for creating tokenized equities known as the Main Tranche (designated as Token QUEEN). Token QUEEN itself can be subdivided into two specialized tranches: Token BISHOP, aimed at accruing interest with a yield that adjusts weekly based on market dynamics and governance decisions, and Token ROOK, which offers investors a 2x leverage opportunity without the peril of liquidation, optimizing for capital efficiency. The protocol conducts regular assessments of the net asset value (NAV) per share. Should the ratio of NAVROOK to NAVBISHOP exceed 2 or fall below 0.5, this triggers a rebalancing mechanism, uniformly adjusting share counts in all wallets to maintain equilibrium.
Tokenomics
Maximum Supply: 300 million
Community Incentives: 50%
Team: 20%
Future Investors: 15%
Ecosystem / Treasury: 10%
Seed Round: 5%
This token distribution reflects a strategy aimed at supporting the community, ensuring project development through the team, and attracting investments for future growth. The allocation of tokens between the team, investors, and the ecosystem is intended to ensure long-term interest from all parties in the project's success, while the emphasis on the community highlights the importance of users and participants in the CHESS ecosystem.

Vesting
As of today, all tokens have been unlocked!
GitHub
Tranchess is actively developing their smart contracts and related products. They have several repositories that include core contracts as well as tools to interact with QUEEN, BISHOP and ROOK tokens, indicating active development and support for the protocol.
Blockchain
As you can see, most of the token issuance is centered between the team, Binance and one of the leading funds. This greatly simplifies the model for pumping the asset. In addition to all this, the activity of the market maker GSR is noticed, which can skillfully pump up the price.
In addition, the wallets of other investment funds were also found. In total, the interested parties to the pumping of the asset have about 95% of the entire coin issue on their wallets.
Conclusion
We have a project in DeFi that is reborn and allows us to bypass taxation, to all this there are funds that are interested in pumping up the price. We have on board the fund (3AC) that needs price growth the most, we have a good GSR market maker, active developers and no distribution area that will be “drawn” by big capital! Be prepared for a booming growth, don't miss this chance.
Best wishes, Horban Brothers!
