The rewards vault is fully non-custodial and managed on-chain. It allocates capital according to community-submitted portfolios.
Trench's Social Intelligence Engine tracks performance over time, giving greater weight to skilled contributors while balancing risk from less consistent inputs.
Trench is a decentralized, performance-driven system where anyone can propose a portfolio that guides the vault.
The better your portfolio performs, the more influence it gains in shaping future allocations. Communities can delegate stake to proven participants and share in the rewards their support generates.
Staking the INTEL token unlocks participation: you can activate a portfolio, influence vault allocations, and earn performance-based rewards.
Rewards are distributed weekly, with each participant's share adjusted for track record and commitment.
Together, token demand and portfolio performance drive rewards growth, compounding benefits as the community scales.
Trench empowers traders to monetize their skill and reputation, while communities rally around proven talent.
Passive users gain exposure to a portfolio shaped by the ecosystem's best performers, and active users are rewarded for the value they create.
Together, the vault compounds into a stronger, smarter portfolio — serving all who participate.
Skilled traders earn rewards for high performing portfolio suggestions and compound their earnings by soliciting delegated stake.
Throw your stake behind other traders with strong track records and split the rewards. Their skill, your stake, 50/50 split.
A community of portfolios - a community vault - growing community rewards.
The protocol constructs the Vault Portfolio by mirroring the portfolio suggestions of every active staker.
The Social Intelligence Engine adjusts the influence and rewards each user receives based on their performance-based track record.
User portfolios represent a suggested asset allocation for the protocol's vault. The Social Intelligence Engine aggregates and scores all user submissions to derive a single target allocation for the vault.
No. Managing a portfolio allows users to compete for rewards, but users can also earn by delegating stake weight to one or more traders.
Delegation boosts the influence and rewards a trader can earn (adjusted for performance). Rewards generated by your delegated stake weight are split 50/50 between you and the Delegate.
INTEL is the protocol's native utility token. It grants stakers the right to suggest portfolios to the protocol, delegate to other traders, and earn rewards.
Demand for the token translates into capital flows into the rewards vault. Vault growth magnifies user rewards, which attracts more users, in turn, those new users grow the vault, and the cycle repeats.
Rewards are distributed to users based on their Social Intelligence Score. SIS is Trench's fine-tuned algorithm crafted to reward performance and alignment with the goal of long-term value creation for the community.
The SIS inputs include the user's performance track record, stake weight, and INTEL lockup duration.
The Social Intelligence Engine is specifically desinged to allocate influence over the vault based on performance track record and long-term alignment with the community.
It distributes influence over the vault allocation non-linearly, meaning poorly ranked portfolios exert very little influence while the impact of highly ranked users is magnified.
It's a system combining permissionless participation with meritocratic influence that elegantly adapts to shifting market conditions and trends.
