Technical & Fundamental Analysis
1. The "Binance Factor" (Critical Update):
The most significant driver for CHESS right now is the announcement that Binance will delist CHESS on February 13, 2026.
Impact: This typically leads to a "delisting dump" followed by high-volatility "exit pumps" as traders close positions.
Timeline: Withdrawals will remain supported until mid-April, but liquidity on centralized exchanges is expected to thin out significantly.
2. Protocol Health vs. Token Price:
Despite the price being 99% below its ATH, the Tranchess protocol remains functional.
V2 Upgrade: The recent "Smart Yield" update has helped maintain some Total Value Locked (TVL), currently around $5.7M - $6M.
Supply Dynamics: Approximately 18.9% of the supply is locked in staking, and the team has been active with a buyback program to support the price floor.
3. Price Action & Sentiment:
Short-Term: The token is showing "dead cat bounce" characteristics. After a sharp decline in 90 days (-38%), it saw a speculative 20% spike today.
Support/Resistance: Traders are watching the $0.028 level as critical support. If it fails to hold post-delisting, it may enter "price discovery" to the downside toward its all-time low of $0.017.
