Tranchess is live on the Binance Smart Chain with a Bitcoin tracking token and yield farming options for investors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Su Zhu, CEO of Three Arrows Capital, has announced the creation of Tranchess, a decentralized finance (DeFi) platform. Zhu characterized Tranchess as a “Tokenized Asset Management & Derivatives Trading system\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n <\/g>\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n <\/clipPath>\r\n <\/defs><\/svg><\/span><\/a>” in a tweet on Thursday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While Tranchess aspires to be a multi-chain and multi-asset DeFi protocol with the goal of becoming a decentralized autonomous organization, the first version of the project is focused on Bitcoin (BTC).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tranchess 1.0 provides associated access to a BTC price performance tracker. Users will need BTCB \u2014 the BEP-2 version of Bitcoin \u2014 to participate in the project's initial launch on the Binance Smart Chain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Users trade BTCB for QUEEN, the project's main native token, according to the white paper<\/a>. Investors can also purchase QUEEN using USD Coin (USDC) on supported exchanges.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Users who own the QUEEN token can participate in the protocol sub-fund or tranche. The sub-funds are dubbed BISHOP and ROOK, in keeping with the chess motif. Investors merely need to split their QUEEN tokens 50\/50 into BISHOP and ROOK.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to Zhu's tweet, Tranchess farming allows for single-asset staking to mitigate temporary loss. \u201cCreate the Queen token if you have Bitcoin. Create the Bishop token if you have USDC,\u201d the 3AC chief added in the Twitter thread.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Apart from farming, the ROOK token can also be used to open a leveraged long position on Bitcoin. \u201cThere is no forced liquidation or funding cost spike,\u201d as Zhu points out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Whereas converting BTCB for QUEEN is referred as the “creation” step, Tranchess users can also “redemption” their QUEEN tokens by exchanging them for BEP-2 Bitcoin<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

To do so, the user must first merge the BISHOP and ROOK tokens into a single QUEEN “currency.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tranchess raised $1.5 million in seed funding in July from 3AC, Spartan Group, IMO Ventures, LongHash Ventures, and Binance Labs, among others.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
