Tranchess Price (CHESS)

What Is Tranchess Protocol (CHESS)?

Tranchess is a yield enhancing asset tracker with varied risk-return solutions. Tranchess provides a different risk/return matrix out of a single main fund that tracks a specific underlying asset. The name Tranchess was inspired by the game of chess, as well as the French word “Tranche”, which is often associated with tranche funds that caters to different class of investors with varying risk appetite. Tranchess was launched on 24th June 2021.

The main fund, aka token Queen, tracks a specific underlying asset and can be split equally into 2 sub funds. We have purposefully chosen BTC as the first crypto asset to track. Meanwhile, it also shares many of the popular DeFi features such as: single-asset yield farming, borrowing & lending, trading, etc.

Tranchess provides:

• Enhanced yield returns without incurring impermanent losses
• Leveraged positions at low cost and no forced liquidation
• Zero Lock-in Period for Queen holders
• Prevention of Oracle Attacks using TWAP (Time Weighted Average Price)

How is Tranchess Protocol Secured?

Our smart contracts do not rely on price feeds from other smart contracts and thus are highly resistant to price manipulation such as flash loan attacks. Tranchess price oracle uses 30-minute TWAP instead of discrete oracle price. This minimizes the possibility of oracle manipulation attack. Tranchess oracle extends the Open Oracle standard by Compound, accepts signed price data from two separate sources (Coinbase and OKEX) and computes time-weighted average price (TWAP) in every 30-minute epoch.

Other security measures includes: Multiple rounds of code audit by reputable teams (Peckshield & Certik), Bug Bounty (Immunefi) and Multi-signature settings.
